  1. My friend has a Toyota Aurion 3.5ltr V6, 575000 ks, and still has a beautiful clean exhaust pipe, no oil leaks and is still tight n sealed. He doesn't use any additives.
  2. I made this aluminium wallet for my brother for Christmas. It has a small internal pocket that can hold a couple of notes and it can take four cards easily, five if you push it. Wallet was all machined by hand, only the engraving was done with the CNC - it's our family crest. Box is made from a rimu floor board and has a nice felt covered insert and tinted glass cover.
  3. Licence testing officer stops the test as soon as you fail, why should the suspension inspection be any different if the law says it becomes clint's job at that point? Edit, after checking the VIRM I have to concede. Modifications are the last item on the check lists, therefore of lowest priority.
  4. To be fair, if the suspension is modified and needs a cert why should they even continue looking at the suspension and surrounding structure? The cert guy will have to do that anyway. No point having double redundancy
  5. A bit more expensive than that, $140+gst on aliexpress for 100x usb sticks https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004949380312.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.3891517eiJln1r&algo_pvid=2ed90a51-7a1b-4522-9b1c-677a2ef2d8ec&algo_exp_id=2ed90a51-7a1b-4522-9b1c-677a2ef2d8ec-27&pdp_ext_f={"sku_id"%3A"12000031123265212"}&pdp_npi=2%40dis!NZD!141.63!141.63!!!!!%40210318b916697752137334195ee55a!12000031123265212!sea&curPageLogUid=VNgsCgOzPEB3
  6. Did the tablet come with a S Pen? That should be able to draw on pdf file just fine Also, does lvvta have the ability to accept USB stick instead of CD? You can get the sticks for less than the price of a blank CD these days Would be nice if they just had a Dropbox account or something and you could just dump the files in
  7. Definitely want at least a little bit of taper on the mould, will make it a whole lot easier to get the casting out. These things have like a 1.5 deg taper and are used for making microscopy samples, really quite easy to get the casting out afterwards. https://shop.buehler.com/castable-mounting-molds https://shop.buehler.com/content/images/thumbs/0011139_samplkup-30mm-12-pcs.jpeg
  8. VR sensor at cam speed is fine, especially with that ~80mm diameter wheel. Toyota uses VR sensor in distributors with a 25mm diameter wheel. I think the one I made in my distributor is about 60mm and works great for getting sync while cranking.
  9. Just throw a 3.8 commodore v6 in and be done
  10. Super peaky fuel graph. Big cam timing table should be a good tool to play with though Here's my 0-3000 and 3000-6000 rpm fuel tables, basically a flat sheet of paper compared to yours
  11. Quite a lot of old toyotas only came with one bulb fitted from factory. Either that or every old Toyota I have bought has had a bulb removed at one point.
  12. They have USB C these days, if you can get a camera with a USB C cable you might be alright. Or get a camera with wifi
  13. Samsung with stylus is what we use at work for warehousing and QC, would be perfect for you.
  14. Never had a problem with the Starlet, run it right down to just about fumes a few times. I guess the tank is a bit more of a simple shape than some other cars. I think there may be some slight factory baffling in there too. Hilux on the other hand is a piece of shit when you get near the empty line on the guage.
  15. One time I was a real idiot and forgot to undo the bolts holding the sandwich plate/flyhweel cover on and had same symptoms
  16. Good result. I saw the thread title and thought "swap to LD28+T" Never late in an LD28 mayTe.
  17. What the hell did I just watch. Big milk sure had its hooks in everywhere.
  18. I'm in Avonhead. We go through too much milk. It is nearly bankrupting us.
  19. What's the go with coregas these days? Looks like the swap bottles are out of stock everywhere. Can I just take my coregas bottle to BOC and get it refilled?

    PAINT THREAD

    I've had cars with two of the variants, paint shops will often mix up a newer variant from like 1997. If you get them to spectro a sample from the car for some reason the computer correctly identifies it as 033 and pumps out the recipe for the correct variant

    There are at least three variants of 033 Toyota white. Ask me how I know.
  22. Are those grinding marks on here something that could get you kicked back come WoF time? Maybe worth hitting it with a wire wheel to get rid of the grinding texture
  23. Not just a case of no fuel pressure so it just dies the moment you load it up?
