yaaa im an idiot, i dont wanna explain what i was doing but thanks for the help guys haha

putting them in the caliper isnt the problem its the little springs, does anybody else have these springs in theres? the springs pop into the pads but keep popping out before you can get the pads into place

ok guys, having a problem. changing brakes, but ive got 2 little springs that poke into pads and push pads apart, having a bitch of a time getting pads back into caliper without springs popping out, any tips? this is driving me and my buddy helping me absolutly crazy.

so bit of an update, it still does it around 3500 rpm and more, a mechanic told me it was a vacuum unit? anybody have any ideas?

i have 5% on the back 3 and i love it, you can see out but not in at all, ideal if you have amp/sub in the back. had 25% on the front 2 and it was good, could still see in but still dark enough to provide the mystery/privacy.

ya the back 3 windows there have limo tint, 5% i think it is. as for the antenna im not too worried its never ever up so it doesnt really bother me too much.

hey guys,
i finally got some jdm tails, here are a few pics. i am convinced my city has absolutly no good places for pictures but here are 2.

so i went to toyota today trying to oder the grill, they can't/won't get it cause toyota canada does not have access to any europeon or japan parts, wtf??

all gears but have to be over 3500ish rpm

my car is making a wierd noise. when i first turn it on in the morn, idles around 1800 for a few min, then when i drive, if its over 3500ish rpm, my car makes a high pitched whine/squeel. me and my mechanic friend looked at it but we couldnt figure out what it was without taking anything apart. anybody have any idea? oh and it appears that it has to be in gear for the whine/squeel to happen. if its in neutral or if the clutch is it, it doesnt make the noise. thanks

so i start my car this morning, and puff, a bunch of blue smokes blows out of exhaust. now i have not noticed anything wrong with the car at all, has been running fine, recently got the oil changed, any any ideas? only happened early this morn, briefly, then it sat for 2 hours and didnt do it when i started it then. im not sure if i should just see if it happens again or ya not sure. what you guys think

part # by any chance?

new lens eh? where abouts would one aquire one of those? mine is all scratched badly and etc.. as well.

oh no, not a crush bent header, was gonna get this http://www.1supertoyota.com/products/rd10.htm, just wanted to see if there is a big deal between mandrel and crush, and if i should just pay the extra for mandrel, any opinions?

yeah so my understanding if you have 2 sensors in the header, u should be ok. now the place i was gonna get to do it was saying mandrel is about twice the price, does it make that much of a difference? or just nicer looking? if i go crush, i have to go bigger piping, correct?

for those of you with exhaust, without a cat, did the CEL come on? or do i just need a header with 2 sensor spots? i know some guys who did the whole header exhaust thing and they had to put a high flow cat in, is there a way to get around a cat? thanks

another bc celica, not too many of us on here, im lookin into the jdm tails as well thanks for the pic of how they would look

yeah i can see at night, i cant remeber, i think its 5% on the back 3. i had the front 2 darker but tinter had to redo them and he was nice enough to give me lighter tint, when the front 2 were dark, it looked really really good.

i finally lowered it. looks wayyyy better to me anyway. still a bit of a gap but i can deal. heres some pics.

this seems to be the topic of the week, i was wondering what do you guys suggest, gt, no turbo, 2.25 or 2.5? and does anybody have a sound clip of the hks carbon ti? thanks guys

no, didnt do the camber kit, i recalled reading that since i wasnt lowering it too much, didnt really need it, and he wanted to mess with the front. i did the install so while it was my first time doing it, i am fairly confident it was done properly, had the how-to and had a mechanic friend who has done it before help me. the car doesnt pull to one side or anything so i think its alright, but im gonna go to a proper alignment shop just incase, pay to do it twice but at least i know it will be done right.
