You don't have to tell me. :)

Hey, since when was this thread a 4A-GE bashing thread! :p Gearing is just as important as torque/power/rev limit, it has to all be looked at together. I'm going to have to go with powerband. I'd like a nice, flat, long torque curve myself, over a car that has all the torque down low, or all...

Sounds about right.

Corolla. Not once did you spell it right, lol. Sounds like my uncle's neighbour, only she just likes to yell and throw things at his house instead of wrecking his car.

People call vans, etc, people movers all the time, around here at least, so it just doesn't sound out of the ordinary at all... maybe it is where you live... I don't know.

I still fail to see what the tilt of the engine really has to do with anything at all, plus from the pic siman just posted, it's more head design than anything.

Am I missing something? It's just an auction for a van...

And your basis for not liking it is.... I hardly see what the tilt of the engine has to do with anything at all really... most cars have tilted engines.

Check the second thread shaeff posted, and if you have any more questions, just ask. I was going to close this thread, but I think I can leave it open, if I closed it and something needed clarification, the old thread would get bumped, and then we'd be mad at an old thread getting bumped...

It doesn't. That's the max weight of the car, fully loaded (passengers and cargo).

Have any pic of your car from further away turbo? (I guess I could check the Showoff forum I think I remember you posting in there).

No, even the OEM lip from Toyota is $200 new, heh... That's what I'm getting though.

Pretty sure mine has that adjustment screw too, with a rubber cover, I've never touched it though. Auto and Manual cars have different TB P/N's listed in the EPC, maybe Autos didn't have it and that's what yours are Shawn? I dunno.

Well, us mods are contemplating a no price no post rule for the For Sale section, I have had it happen before when I want to buy something, I ask the guy how much and he says make an offer... You want people to be able to do that? Should they have to post an asking price? Vote now. :) Jeff

Temporarily Stickied to let people see this who are outside of Toronto, but it should be posted in the Canadian Regional forum. :)

Not what I meant. ;) Turning the tach and having the numbers odd, would result in the same problem as was mentioned above, no matter what you do, you're screwed ;).

I always give my fuel economy in either L/100km or in US MPG, I don't know of anyone who uses Imperial MPG, that would just confuse everyone, lol. (It is over 30 if I use Imperial MPG though... heh).

Metric measurement for fuel economy is L/100km. I do know how to do conversions, lol, and I have checked my fuel economy multiple times on the highway over the last 3 years, it's usually in the same range. The car got me a Lexus hat at this year's Supra fun run here in Calgary for fuel milage...

Yeah I had thought about the needle weighting before, but thought it might not be an issue for simply moving the needle starting position, but I guess I was wrong. Oh well.

There are pictures... 136,000 miles. I love those cars, I know of a couple people who have/had one, they're great. :)
