Toyota Altezza, Please dont judge me.....Haha

Yeah the rear lower arms are a spherical end and the front camber arms are just a hardened rubber.

Has anyone here had any issues having Hardrace suspension bits certified? I have had them on the car for a while with no issues just want to get it all legal beagle.

Cheers for that. Yeah I pretty much have read all of the above as to what can/will go wrong with it, my brain is telling me to run the other direction yet I can’t seem to let the idea go. I drove a Manual coupe, went bloody well, torquey as, gear throw is a little doughy but meh. Need to drive the auto see how that goes.
-
Yip that’s all I would be doing as well, remap, coil overs and some work rims and be done with it. The Mrs can then proceed to curb rash, dent and generally fuck it.

Haha cheers I’ll keep that in mind...
I do love the M1 also but can’t justify the extra 50k for pumped guards really? Remapping the 135i can get more power and torque than the M1 for $950.

Anyone here have experience with BMW 135i’s? I’m thinking of getting one for the Mrs. Been looking at 2010 models just a little concerned about things going wrong, gearbox’s, Turbos etc.
They seem cheap for a reasonably newish 3.0l twin turbo and everything I have read say they handle and go real well.

Ive just put a base plate motorex into my garage at home, wanted a clear floor didn't have the roof height to make it work,
am super happy with it, single phase so a bit slower going up but not horribly, was $2100 delivered to my house plus dynabolts and oil, had the guy who services all the hoists in my workshop come and install it for me and had to buy proper anchor bolts as he wouldn't use the dynabolts as apparently they aren't up to spec for securing heavy machinery (only rated medium duty according to the dynabolt catalogue)
either way its 100x better than axle stands,
If you don't mind where did you buy the hoist from? I been looking around, Was worried the cheaper ones would be a bit light weight but you're pretty happy eh?

Sorry to ask but who did your seats? They look amazing.

One owner '71 manual parked up since 98. Went to look at it to buy but too covered in crap to really tell what it's like and was flying out to work the next day so I will go and drag it out in a few weeks and give it a wash. Not my favourite shape but a genuine barn find hard to turn down haha.

Couple weeks ago I purchased a M18 1/2" Milwaukee hi torque impact gun for an engine swap out I gotta do on the IS350 and a couple cars I need to pull apart. The thing is a beast hasn't even blinked an eyelid on anything I have asked of it. I could of gotten away with the smaller version but for the fact it's stupidly grunty and would do everything I ask of it I thought fuck it and put up with the extra weight. Tool shed had the pack with charger and 2 batteries for $749.

Further to the above question, If I get my car certed with 15X9 0 offset and put 15X9-15s on there will they still be semi legal according to the cert plate or is the offset marked on the cert?
Cheers.

Yeah I did, you know him? I got some Toda quad throttles off another guy in Aus as well. Saved on freight.

I got the Toda pistons with it as well, as well as the rods, are the rods standard length 3S that you are aware of? I havnt pulled down my spare engine to compare yet.

Sorry I didn't see this I have billet 1s here std Toyota are 18.5 kilos mine are 15 kilos should fit into your suit case with clothes either side ,,, if you have 25 kilo luggage
No worries, I have 23kg allowance I think? Nothing else in the case but crank and a couple towels wrapped around it. Its a Toda 2.2L crank which I believe is a reground 5S crank which should be in the 18kg ball park? Will see tomorrow......

Haha Gold, funny though as I did consider measuring a forged 4AGE crank I have but then was like why? Will be all good I'm sure it will fit in the carryon case. Will measure up once I'm home and post my results just cause. Thanks again.

That'd be much appreciated if you could. Thanks.

This^^^ Id love another AE70 but the price Id have to pay these days its hard to justify. I really enjoy my Altezza's, to me they are the modern version, albeit 4 door, of the AE86. Not fast, yes slightly under powered but a blast to rev the crap of and I think handle real good. Just like an 86...
Currently spending 5 tidy manual Altezzas worth on the old 3SGE to squeeze 50% more out of it and see if its a bit more fun.
