Is it the same VVTL-i 190 engine in the T-Sport as is in the Celica?

just that nobody expects it in the Corolla :pac:

MetzgerMeister

It is a great engine and thankfully it doesn't have the oil burning issue its baby brother has.

€84 for a clutch kit was very very good. what brand is that? when i needed a clutch for mine the cheapest i could find was €250 iirc. what happened the old engine? bottom ends?

Yeah couldn't believe my eyes when I seen it. Was reduced from 256€. And I had a discount code getting me the clutch down to €84 including free delivery.
It's a japanparts clutch, never tried them before.

The old engine dropped a valve, piston badly damaged. Got it removed today!
Exhaust off, radiator out, bonnet removed, loom out was a pain. First time I ever tried but getting help from the brother who has more experience.

fair play to you good feeling of self satisfaction i'd say. once you get it in lift a few times i'd say you'l keep it :pac:

what are you doing with the old engine? could use a few bits :P

It's currently lying in a wheelbarrow behind the shed, pm me if you need any parts, I'll let you know if I have them!

Currently still in this freezing cold shed detailing the red one, I think it's time for a fire soon :pac:

Fog lights when there is no fog!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111eleven ZOMG!!!!

:pac:

MetzgerMeister

There's absolutely no excuse for a German car owner to have fog lights on "accidentally" as they have to be turned on each time the car is started :P

Not on an E38/E39 dude.

Was always a fog light driver but don't bother in the '60 as couldn't be bothered turning them on each time. Have the lights set on auto now so don't touch them at all.

I stand corrected! Do you pull out the light switch in the e39?

In my 335 it was a button you had to press each time, same in the 330 but if I use auto lights, the fogs come on. I'm not a fan of it to be honest.

Separate switch for fogs. You can leave the fronts on full time but not the rears. Perfect really!

Yea but you need the fogs on E39's as the dims are crap

Not wanting to die is a great motivation i find

Looks better with angel eye dims and fogs give a bit of extra light.

Now this is a long shot buy maybe, just maybe someone else drove the other car

OR

that place is near his house. Call me insane but I strongly believe one of those is a possibility :pac:

So what? The thread is called "Post a picture of your car".

pretty sure I got banned her for posting a few pics of my lexus, and was no where near as many photos as a few BMWs here. Nothing wrong with people posting up photos but not excessively.

That shed is where I stored the red one last night, drove up there today in the black one to start working on it. It's not too near my house unfortunately :pac:

@Hachiko, this is the Post a Picture of You Car thread, I did just as the thread is named. Pretty much the exact answer I gave you last time.

Jesus its not like he started a thread about a bmw he owns and then bragged no other car came even close to being as exclusive as his.
I like looking at it tbh, I like looking at all the cars here whether I like them or not. People begged me to get rid of my Honda but thanked it when I showed the pics. If anything it is courteous.
Don't derail this thread about yourself again.

Big Nasty

Did someone say Bimmer?

Big nasty, you've shown that same light 3 million times now... Can ya not show the other light now ffs?
