Im in the uk and will have a black front bumper for sale soon - looks like this -

Sell some stuff on ebay?

Become a crack dealer?

How much for -

front grille, SS-III One remaining
OEM foglights 96-99 with bracket
OEM 96-99 clear front bumper indicators

Im fairly local to northampton too, so could collect.

thanks

stunning.

what a ball park figure as i could be tempted by these...

ah ok, not sure how that works then!!

you are talking about 93 ron fuel yeh?

well the st205s map will be designed for the fuel it has in its native country, so if you have a UK import 95 ron or if its from japan 99 ron.

therefore its a REALLY bad idea to run a car like that on a low ron fuel unless you have the map adjusted to take this into account.

with 93 ron you will be down on BHP by quite a way too (239BHP for 95 ron and 255bhp for 99 ron, so roughly 4bhp per ron, so between 93 and 103 thats 40bhp!

If your stock map thinks its getting 95/97 and you put 93 in your really leaning out your fuel mixture.

i really wouldn't run it on 93!

1 bar is usually ok as a peak for day to day driving if your not planning any other mods.

ah ok. Do you have an alarm fitted?

a test light will just show voltage? Which they will all have?

So your alt definitely checks out then, 14.4v at full output?

OK first off to check for a voltage leak somewhere you need a clamp meter that can measure DC voltage you turn your car off, make sure everything is off (interior light etc) and then test the battery + for current, you should only see around 0.3 amps being drawn when the car is off (the car alarm/immobliser using most of that!)

So common problems that cause battery drain are -

Poor alternator performance
Alarm broken/open circuit
open circuit else where on the car.

What i would do is -

1) Get your car started (jump start/bump start!)
2) Test your voltage with engine on, you should see around 13.6 volts on idle
3) Hold the engine at around 2k rpm, then test the voltage again, it should be nearer 14.2-14.4, if it is not, then your alternator is toast im afraid (its important you check the alternator does increase in voltage as engine speed increases, most people don't do this!)
4) If this does all check out then get back to me on what alarm you have and any other modifications you have done to your electrical system (added LEDs/sat nav etc)



Can you test your DC current pull when the car is off/doors closed etc please? And we can go from there

Correct, done with cheap tint paint, then sanded down and laquer'd using 2k, its the only way to get a decent result.


No chance, that rear lip is rare as and my custom exhaust was designed for it




They are mist jets, so with the celica jets you get a jet of water yeh? With these you get a mist of water, so it spreads MUCH better over your windscreen

I know - thats why i have bought a facelift bumper and its waiting to be fitted

Hey, been reading your forums for a while, but thought i should really say hello!

I own a '94 UK spec GT (much like an SS-II) with a few modifications (with more in the pipeline!)

This is what it looked like when i collected it -





At the moment this is how it stands -

(ignore that cat and dirty car!)





Mods done -

De badged rear (i know the 2nd picture shows the badges still on!)
De cat s/s cat back exhaust
volvo mist washer jets (

stock washer jet furthest away!) this is a great mod!
Tinted indicators
17" TSW wheels with p zero rosso tyres painted in citreon meteor grey
Clear side indicators
HIDs (guess which bulb is the HID bulb

Mods i have bought and are still to fit -

Spax 40mm lowering springs
JDM power fold mirrors (ill link this to the alarm, so when you lock the car, the mirrors fold in)
Face lift bumper

Mods i still want -

SS-III Grill
SS-III Splitters

Anyone got any thoughts on anything else that might look good?

thanks
