Who did your seats?

It's a good car, treat it well, and pay for what's needed, and it will be good to go for years to come Go half arsed, and it will be a nightmare and you'll end up hating it Basically treat her well like a good girl should be

From my experience a damaged pump gear is a box full of neutrals, well, except park. From a older guy who has dabbled with used parts, I now always replace with new parts now, and, I'm a big fan of "whilst we're in there" Do it right, do it once Whilst the outlay may be more, the price of...

I believe that you and I would not be compatible for alot of reasons I assume, from the terminology you have used in the past, you are a white Australian, like me (although I have German/Irish ancestry), so, in the way your thoughts process seems to work, I would not be compatible with all...

The IRA bombed and shot up alot of places, kids, and civilians died The also kidnapped, tortured and raped Does that count

Apologies for my lack of comprehension

I don't get my information from car forums, car forums are for hobbies and LOLS You might be surprised how countries around the world will react if someone uses a nuke, even locally, or even if a truck or a smaller backpack style, containing a nuke is used and manages to get were it wants to...

That is the last thing the world needs, if that 5hit kicks off what makes people think they will be safe in our neck of the woods, because we wouldn't be safe, far from it Do people realise the protocols if someone uses nukes? it is basically fire everything and hope you can knock out "most" of...

IRT power, the only real difference to a slightly modified engine and a aftermarket intake is some induction noise, and a hit to your wallet, it has been proven many times in back to back testing And even on a highly tuned or slightly boosted engine with a stock throttle body, a smooth intake...

It's all about rim width, correct offset, camber and height Nothing that a tape measure and calculator cannot figure out People told me there was no way of fitting 275/40 17 in the rear of my VX, even with rolled guards, a tape measure and a few calculations proved them wrong and am now...

I upgraded all globes with Narva in my VX SS H4 Plus 150 for the low beam (comes with parkers) and H1 intense for high beam These work extremely well, basically a night and day difference.....pun intended, and are all the same colour of "white"

Sweet sweet ride, looks really nice in the pics :)

Jack up car and spin the front wheels, should be smooth with no sticking points or noise, then wobble the wheel, should not wobble If all is well pull the wheels and check where the rim meets the disc, ensure that is clean and the disc is mated to the hub correctly I've found worn hub bearings...

Get the codes scanned This is the only way to diagnose the issues You could try disconnecting the battery, unclipping every connector, give them a clean, and re-clip them, then reconnect the battery and see if it throws codes again after a while How much voltage is at the battery when the car...

My advice is new flex plate and new converter, and all new fixtures at a minimum Me, I would have had a professional shop pull it all, strip the box down for inspection, and replace the flex plate and converter as well as doing the rear main Do it right, do it once, or face the consequences...

Suns out SS is out

How's the car going?

I like how they aren't reporting on all multiple wars, mass refugees and famine that currently going on around the world, they are more interested in Hollywood, TV personalities and minority group presumed rights Pre warned is pre armed, currently we are being kept in the dark I think the...

Have you found out the codes yet?

How does the fluid look and smell, dirty fluid or fluid with a burnt smell are the usual suspects or wear

Was it doing it before the service?

I have one in the VX and one in the Honda

I remember the triples in on my old LJ, whilst they sounded good, they were a nightmare to tune and a headache I never need again

I had a Quad Lock with anti vibration thingie on my Harley, and Bluetooth Cardo headset in my helmet Worth every cent

I look at my VX as a modern "classic" As for EFI, factory or aftermarket, from years of tinkering with carbys in my youth, I would take EFI over carby every time for performance and economy I cannot believe people are still using carbs now days with all the aftermath EFI options available

When was the fluid and filter last changes? What does the current fluid look and smell like?

Just the main plates smaller faults "flexing" it's authority a bit

This is how I feel when I take the VX SS into work and park it up near where all the apprentices hang out, they always "ohh" and "arr" and ask me what it is, and could I pop the bonnet, which I'm more than happy to comply to I feel sorry for the youth of today, most will never get to own or...

Seems cheap, maybe it is FUBAR I would just get yours inspected and fixed if required, it may cost more, BUT, warranty

Use to ride sports bikes, then arthritis kicked in, then got a Harley and didn't enjoy it, I'm looking for a new cool little sporty car that has all the bells and whistles for cruising as well as being able to happy lap with minimal modifications (read: oil cooler) And for under $55k a new BRZ...

Nope, car I went for a spin in a new BRZ TS, thing handled great out the box, and I do miss my old 2017 limited edition Toyota 86 My old 86, it was a fun car, especially after fitting a little turbo to it The Commodore was really only a stop gap for a while, until I got carried away with it...

Looked at it under it's cover, having thoughts about selling it and getting something I can throw around the track

Seems to be a bit of damage from liquiafaction, but I cannot see a tsunami threat from where it originated from, unless Taiwan lifted substantially that is I would be interested in what happens next geological wise from the shift, i.e next quake or volcano somewhere in the ring of fire, maybe...

Depends on what's broken, I would assume: Flex plate Possibly the torque converter because the mounting points are probably flogged out now Plus new fluid and filter That's off the top of my head

My VX SS lives under a car cover and only comes out to play in fair weather, not that I'm to fussed with putting Km on it, it's more that I want to keep it nice, hence, it only comes out for fair weather cruising, where it gets shown the reins My Honda Accord Euro CU2 (K24) is a super fun...

You really shouldn't be driving the car at all, let alone giving it any beans, with broken flex plate bolts You have likely caused even more damage

Looked at the SS under it's cover and checked the trickle charger, I really need to pull the covers of it and run a tank of fuel through it, it hasn't moved for a month and I'm itching. The thing is I don't take it out if there's even a slight chance of rain, planning for a good long cruise has...

Nice, now sew up a boot for the hand brake......... :p

I assumed he meant wheel, DOOH
