Ideally I want to be able to re-register it. The reg has been expired for more than two years and not been on hold.

So basically if it hasn't been in a big stack and in good condition then it's be about $1500 to get it back on the road?

Ok so I'm looking at a GTZ where the owner has let the registration lapse.

What do I need to know?

I assume that you don't/can't do a change of ownership?

What do you do?

Cheers

Yeh thanks guys, i plan to replace them just gota find the time.

Just got quick question,

Both my CV joints in my corolla are clicking quite badly. I just got a new WOF from VTNZ but the wof checker said you could not fail a WOF on CV.

My question
Is it safe to be driving around with clicking CV's ?



Thanks

well i bought some CRC carb cleaner and it seems to have done the tick - Magic stuff

Yep take all the air filter assembly off, spray it all round the carb and rev it a bit when you spray it, itll blow white sh*t out of the exhaust, just wait till it burns it all away.

But first id change ya plugs etc first.

Cheers,

I've pulled the plugs out they seem all good. Is there ...

Try spraying CRC Clean-a-Carb into the Throttle Body. Open the butterfly right up and spray some in, possibly clean parts of the throttle body out with a rag. Then start the car up (it may not start first time; but it will start) and spray some in whilst the car is running. Then connect up the air ...

1 is steering rack boot, 2 is the rack, inside on each end will be the rack ends, and the bits between there and the wheels is the tie rod end

Thanks, Ive got a clunking sound comming from this area. When i grab the bar on the passenger side ( which is further to the right of number 2) it can ...

In the engine bay of an ae82 corolla, where the steering components come thru the firewall and split off to the left and right going towards each wheel

here's a pic

UPDATE,

I pulled the plugs out and they seem fine, good gap etc.

What does white dust/crap on spark plugs indicate? (running lean?)
could this be the cause of my missing/hesitation problem? (ie fuel)

I've done some more driving and i don't notice the missing in 1st gear but in second it's ...

maybe try draining your fuel tank to get rid of all those years of biult up sludge, then replace your fuel filter.
fuel filters are commonly neglected, and hey it could be the one from factory, and think of how many kms your car has done, and how much crappy fuel has been thru it!

haha thats ...

Basically does it all the time, it's only more noticable under more throttle as you can fell the definate miss/hesitation.

It seems to do it all the time hot/cold.

I think it seems ignition related to but pulled plugs and they are good, new dizy cap and rotor.

fuel filter looks very old ...

well i put it on, no change!

Any ideas, got missing/hesitation problems between 2500rpm and 4000rpm ish

Really? i just bought the car and found it floating in the engine bay


So is this right?

where does this wire go?

Hey,

I just bought a toyota corolla liftback with 4A engine.

It has a pretty bad hesitation/miss between 2000-3500rpm, what should i start checking/replacing?

first thought was plugs?


Thanks

What i dont get is why a dealer would store a hundred cars over a long period of time. Surely that terriable business pracitice purely based on storage costs and the time value of money

Do all turbo gen2 MR2's come standard with an LSD?

also what other differences are there over the gen1?

damn the body looks tidy!

how much is one like that worth these days?

My brother has a legacy wagon single turbo manaul

don't put a boost tap in it!! only raise the boost by aftermarket chip

he's been running 15-18ish psi i think for over a year with no problems but he's running a TD05 of a wrx sti
