Anyone know of a Celica forum similar to this one? My brother wrote his off in an accident last Friday and we're hoping to buy it off the insurance company and do it back up for him. Need loads of parts, though. Which is why I thought it may be cheaper going through a Forum such as this for Celicas, instead of Toyota. Cheers Anita.

I have a 'standard' '90 J'spec, TT. 60K service coming up, I've got all the bits but I'd like to replace the plugs too. I've seen/read a lot about different temp and reach of plug. Can I please have some recommendations and prices. Ta guyz Tim

Ok guys having a meet this Sunday 27th Jan,at GPS near Manchester check out the upcoming events section on this forum . cheerZ MAC 1 ------------------

hey everyone, i'm wondering if a crted rebuilt TT engine comes with the turbos and other plumbing etc

Craig, Nico: Can a field not be added to the profile screen for each user? Perhaps lose the ICQ field, and rename it to 'MSN name'? Just a thought ------------------ Simon

Oh Flip I am recieving returned e-mails constantly now that I am not sending. It says that the server is returning them for anti virus protection and that I am trying to send executable files. It looks like I am trying to send everyone in my address book an attatchment which I am not. Another strange thing is that the body of the message that I am supposed to have sent contains a few lines randomly taken from some college work I have been typing up . WTF is going on

Just a quick message to say thanks to Phil at C&S Wood in Manchester. I recently was travelling back from Scotland when the water pump packed in on me, NIGHTMARE! One quick stop in to Johnny at Grasshopper and he put me in touch with Phil. Needless to say the job was done very quickly and to the highest standard. Phil gave the car a good look over and done my Brakes while he was there. The price was very good and i would recommend him to anyone in the Manchester area as this as he has a zed of his own and knows what he is doing unlike many other garages that i have tried. Any work u need doing contact him at PHIL.DICKINSON@BLUEYONDER.CO.UK Cheers again to Phil and J…

Ok, is there anywhere that have the following for sale in the UK, and what kind of prices do you reckon I should be looking at?: 1. JWT ecus 2. 550 / 555 injectors 3. Greddy SP or B&B Triflo exhausts 4. A decent clutch capable of taking 450bhp, but still feels nice (any thoughts?) ...all required before my car can be driven again (been without the zed for 7 months so far, *sob*) Also, what pressure does the Z fuel system run at? (in PSI) Cheers in advance guys n girls ------------------ Simon

So its the water system again, well I have replaced pipes, rad and the water pump. Would it hurt to leave the Thermostat OUT? as the 300zx engine seems to run hot anyway. Also doeas anyone know where to get a heater matrix from? Oh car is a 1990 import NA

Ordered mine very late on Friday from DV-Depot. Arrived this morning. Bloody excellent customer service. Half way through film at the mo. Have to say that first race, by the time they get upto speed, I would be done and having coffee and donuts and those 2 birds (for winning the race) by the time they get into 3rd. LOL. This is why there's no Z about they are just to quick for some. See ya ------------------ crazyeddie.co.uk

Just fitted a new stereo so i have the standard radio cassette and cd player for sale. Also i have: 1 stock intercooler 1 pair of cats These came off my car after 13000 miles and are in excellent condition.If interested contact me at baz_michael@hotmail.com

My turbos are smoking under boost, blue smoke lots of CRAP. Has any one tackled replacement themselves how bad a job is it I am a mechanic to trade, is it an engine out job or can it be done in-situ? I am considering hybrid turbos any one have any stories or reccomendations what bhp can I expect running standard internals HKS induction, Mongoose exhaust and have just received breather kit so cats will be getting binned. My car has done 77000 so engine should be fine no Knocks etc

This is the sensor that is bolted into the turbo. I think that mine is knackered cos when I go into diagnostics, the computer is saying that the left bank is running rich regardless of whether I unplug the sensor in or not! Yet on the right side everything is OK. Does anyone have one 4 sale?

Allright people look, I've had mails, phone calls, msn's and read about a thousand post on the forum about this whole TDI business and the introduction of the moderators and the impact it will have on the forum. It has all firmly been covered in the official mails that were made by Myself , Craig and Nathan. You can still come on here and have a laff use the 'odd' bit of adult language and post the same off topic 'garbage' that you have posted for the past 4 years. You can still complain abuot person / business X as long as you have taken the correct Legal and MORAL procedings previously. You can still discuss your views on tuning / upgrade p…

hi guys, does anybody know where to get clear repeaters and clear rear lights (similar to that black 300zx with blue trim someone recently posted) aki

I understand TT models are 300 bhp with manual trans, and 280 bhp with auto trans. Is this correct? Also, is there any difference in bhp between import and UK cars? Finally is there any difference in bhp between 2 seater and 2+2 cars? Thanks, Ed

Could you please help, replacing hoses with Demon tweek braided, any ideas as to the diameters that I should order. Any help greatly appreciated. MCZX

I saw a red Z at a garage in Mickleover, Derby last night. Anyones on this list? Pete

What are the best tyres you can get for the Z at a good price? All four tyres on my car need a change but I have not had them changed before since I have bought the car so not sure what to put on them. By the way, they are going on the standard rims...

Aaron Was speaking to Andy Duff last night about replacing the fuel hoses, and he said that you had done this recently with demon tweeks. Wondered if you could give idea to sizes and diameters so that I can place an order. Any help greatly appreciated. Mark
