super sweet rx3 looks good in white and the hotties came up real good! keep it up.

Spotted this kp at my dads work

also spotted this today at a mates house i loved this thing so much!!

popped the hood to be nosey and i was shocked.

spotted in blenheim

Its a girls ashlee

spotted this wun twenty why today had to grab a pic. In tahuna

Yeah back to that blue color u can see i was gonna just try rub off all the grey stuff and cut n polish n leave like that but there seems to be heaps of black patches (rust kill,bog?) so will have to paint

this is what i done yesterday in about an hour the panel was completely grey, i used plenty buckets of water fine sandpaper and it almost just rubbed off back to the blue, i know its not much but its a start

Gidday guys i brought my datsun and the paint job was a heap of s%^#. Someone had got a brush and grey paint and just covered it in it. i am looking at prepping most it my self and then getting it done the factory blue u can see.

I've never done this to a car before and need to know the do's and dont's about sanding and what equipment to use n how.

heres a pic of what it looks like

that one is a 1300 and it was his mothers from new a old fella wants to get it going before hes too old been sitting for 15 years in shed very tidy interior perfect 32000 original miles and it still was in good shape

This sweet old girl came into work today been in a shed for 20years, time to get it going!

Well i was travelling to kaikoura and she over heated possibly because of the manner she was being driven 120kms in 4spd. filled her up with cold water and was okay think the top hose was blocked slighty. drives okay now. looking at a new radiator though

exact same thing happening to me in my a12 too o.O

spotted this in nelson

I would try pay it but they havn't given me any intstructions or what not to pay..its being dealt with lawyers gonna be tough as i am still at school.i believe they will wait for me to get a full-time income and sting me.. no1 to blame but myself though i sure have learnt my lesson

reason it cost so much because it was attached to underground cables

It was my first car that started the obsession with x7 toyotas. Me and my dad had been fixing her up for around 6months, had the beaut for 2-3weeks??

i was only 15 at the time thought i was mad mike behind the steering wheel, went fora cruise then decided it would be wise to rip the handbrake at 60kms haha stupidest thing i think i've ever done. started to get sideways then panicked, lost control locked up the brakes and thought i was going into a ditch nek minnit a stupid power pole appears i smack into square on luckily for me i only had whiplash, not so lucky i snapped the power pole straight in half and i had insurance but they decided not to cover me cause i was being wreckless, Get a bill in the mail .... $16,950.00 i think i fainted. i am now 17 going on 18 and i still havn't paid a cent..yet ill be in trouble when i've gotta pay for it.

she still sits in my garage today. could probably fix but i just cant be fucked lol

yes bro go for the shakotons!!!

Got super bored at lunchtime so went driving round town(blenheim) to look for os cars not the coolest cars but im loving the cortina and the fiat

^^ sounded awesome!! looks like a track car/street half cage??

^^ stupid window washer brush ruined the photo!! >

haha im not a honda person trust me but i never knew they came out turbo + it looks like its str8 off the factory floor. old fella always cruising it around

I dont have exact figures, but i travelled around 210kms on the weekend from blenheim to picton back a few times and used 90$ fuel and had just under a quarter left which is sweet f/a

Keep seeing a sweet as yellow honda city with turbo writen down the side, black wheels looks like minta in blenheim

Performance is normal if you stomp on it though?

yeah sure is still responsive and thermo is working all sweet

Don't know much / amything about these engines in particular. but bad fuel consuption can be caused from a burnt out O2 sensor & dirty airflow meter etc.

Assuming this is EFI.

What do you call bad fuel economy? What did it used to be?

The obvious question has to be asked - its not because the cost of fuel has gone up?

well i used to get around to work/school on about $30 a week. not travelling to much now its $40-50 the price hasn't gone up too much in this period

.

is there a easy way to tell if its out?

2.8l 5m-e cressidas arnt known to be good on fuel.. but lately its using so much more than it ever used to..

we replaced the bearings about 2months ago after i heard a knock for about 3hrs or so

the air con belt snapped after doing it up too tight same day.

they are the only two conclusions i can come to as why it using so much more fuel.

any advice or opinions would be much appreciated

got a cressida nice runner but would be a mad project for 1jz 2jz 1ggte 1uz
