Today I went to get a quote on the Labour for clutch replacement. Any recommendations for a stage 1 clutch? Budget is £200 as I won't be keeping the car too long. Just can't bear to see it in a less than driveable condition.

Today I decided that I'm going to save money up and eventually have someone swap my car to a 3sgte. But that's way way down the road.

I'd say you Can get a Toyota tps from picknpull. In fact it fits right in your pocket, buy a radiator hose or something ;p
Dozens of Camry's have the same motor. -------------------- Bust a Deal; Face the Wheel.

I don't want to run the risk of it not working or it going out like mine in a short time. -------------------- JDM Part King

A used OEM one would be fine, I'd hate to know how much you're paying for a new one.

Car is acting fine now, no codes, so I don't need it immediately. Dealer wanted to much money for it and since I don't need it asap I can save money and buy online. -------------------- JDM Part King

The other day I was doing some painting and ended up peeling a huge piece of paint off
 Took it to the shop that replaced the bumper from when I got rear-ended and they said they'll repaint it for free. Also got some rust cut out from my rocker panel and new metal welded in last week and painted it this weekend. Doesn't look perfect, but I'm saving up for a full paint job anyways so I'm not too concerned. While I was doing that I also tried doing some eyelids on my highs with plastidip, it turned out alright but some of the edges peeled up when I peeled off the tape.

With plastidip you peel the tape immediately after you spray. Probably only need 3 coats for eyelids and you can spray them on in 3 minute increments since it's such a small area and drying won't matter much because of that |

I did peel it off right after spraying, but I did quite a few coats so maybe that's why it peeled up
