  1. Back home in Porirua. I picked up another set of wheels that are looking pretty schmick. Recaro seats are also in after drilling one hole in each of the factory Toyota runners. Exhaust fell off on the way to Shannon but easily fixed with tie wire.
  2. How cool. I would have put that pic in when it sold.
  3. Hey, did I take that photo? My old car at least and fun fact, the card under the spoiler is a rude card and all of the people in that pic are brothers and sister. Edit. Spoke to my friend and that's not him in the middle, its the neighbour.
  4. Is it weird my first thought was of a human centipede?
  5. I had a rx30 sedan around the same time so had been scrolling the internet and seen the different models. Pretty stoked to find this locally and was an easy swap for an old bmw I was struggling to get rid off.
  6. And when I picked it up from a guy called Pies and his shed
  7. Didn't see this message and should really update the lost pics.
  8. Thanks man. I do but will need to check when I'm home in a few months. We added a dash of gold pearl but not much.
  9. Went to Feilding and got to hang with me main man @Flauski Had a curry and some beers. Wanked him off while he was sleeping. Popped into the MG Classic and had a fizz over the cool cars. Drove the Toyota out to Apiti for a feed. Waved to the local cop, twice. Parked the car back in @Flauskished. Returned home to New Plymouth on Sunday. The only thing missing from a perfect weekend was someone/anyone wanking me off. Till next time @Flauski
  10. I remember a gold 4 coupe around the late 90s maybe early 2000s located in Tawa. I see the Auto trader ad is 04 so could be this car. Any vehicles that drove up where it lived and the curtain would fly open with a head peering out. Pretty sure there was an rx7 parked in the same drive way. Cool car.
  11. Cars currently living in Feilding while we are away in New Plymouth till January 2024 (thanks @Flauski for housing my whip). Recent purchases are some Recaro seats and @Jeffs_Emporium steering wheel. Upcoming event at Manfeild in June with the Circle Jerk crew. I'm lucky enough to be able to drive to and from the track so nice and easy. Drove it from Welly to Feilding at the start of the year with zero issues and max smiles. Pic from Foxton.
  12. I needed a buttered superwine for that one. Is it back in Palmy? Be keen to check it out around June 24th
  13. Waiting on intake but ended up booking the wiring in and will deal with any changes as they come. Ventured out to Autofest in feilding a few weeks ago with the family. Witnessed the Holden catch fire during the Friday track cruising session which was wild especially having my kids in the car. Cruised to and from the event with my boys and enjoyed being able to just do what ever. Gave skid lane a nudge with max revs and little smoke. Cars going so well and looked the part with addition on fender mirrors. We are moving to New Plymouth at the start of next year for 12 months so unsure what il do with this. Still not legal, still don't care.
  14. Suits medium to large vehicles. Location Mt Albert Pm for details
  15. Thanks for hosting my ass and the help on the day @Flauski I'm stoked we got to go for a drive together and can't wait for the next hoon
  16. So I got to do hoons around manfeild with the Circle Jerk Crew a week back. I expressed some interest, they said sweet so I wrote a list and got into getting it ready. I drove it heaps leading up to the event (not legal and seen lots of cops with no issues) and on the day the alternator frizzed itself and i thought we were done. Thankfully @Flauski made some calls and we found a replacement and got it sorted and back out. Car went well with speedo touching 170kph (how accurate this is I don't know) and eventually the brakes got spongy and power steering squirted under the bonnet. Drove it to and from the track and even got a lap in around feilding. Was good seeing familiar faces and meeting others from here and else where.
  17. Sweet, havnt cleaned anything so will do that and then poke around the ECU control if I get time. Currently it drives fine but this will be a day of driving which I havnt don't yet. It's all temporary stuff while waiting for rewire.
  18. Need some advice 1jz vvti n/a with 5 wires making it run, water via the throttle body is not connected and figure this forms part of the cold start. Car starts like an old carby car and once warm, goes good. Idle stays high (2ish k) and assume it's got something to do with it. If I can't get some pipes in the next week, what issues could there during a day at Manfeild?
  19. Decided to get another 2 mesh wheels in the same sizing as the fronts rather than barrel swapping my 9s to 8s. Intake manifold is in design stage and I've had a few sneaky shots and it's looking tasty. Got the one mirror base I had scanned and a bunch of new ones made, super happy with result and just waiting on a mounting plate before they can go back on. Been driving it heaps and it's so good. Had a family party for my birthday and after some pressure from the kids I dropped a garage skid dressed as the blue wiggle. Gave the interior a wash and it's come up primo. Plans to get out the the next welly meet if it's local and there's no coppers about.
  20. I didn't even drag out the Ansen Sprints I had under that old Ford.
  21. I got it from @piesand yep its been owned by all you OGs. First drive felt so good as guessing you guys got it as a non runner?
