Will have pic's soon. Problem scanning but getting a friend to do it for me.
Need to know dose any one have a 2T engine with a turbo I need to know what compression ratio I can use? if no one has guess it will be trial and error but hay have got 2 more engines to play with.
Also am doing up another car and need to know your opinion on what colour to use it was origenly light blue. but have seen some nice metalic red ones running around. It also needs a new dash (does anyone know were i can get one for a ta22).
Going to keep the original engine but doing some mods to it  .
Will have to bring them to a run one day.

I paid him to say that 
Yes the celica would be way cool in cowprint, but don't think it would match the turquoise vinyl we've picked out for the seats, so maybe for the next project we get into.
Camry is very dirty (fortnightly car washes aren't cheap) with the dust storms around here.
My main focus, since I barely know what a distributor does (even though I now know what a fried coil looks like, and that you can get a replacement from the wreckers at 6.30pm in a country town), so yes, my main focus is to get it purring. No loud exhaust for me, and definately lots of sound proofing. Ok, maybe a little exhaust, but only when I floor it.
Still working on learning the whole manual thing. Gonna be harder now that his car is turbo-ed. Well if he ever wants me to drive him home from the pub, he's going to have to be patient with me learning slowly. My left foot is too used to being stationary.
Have you gotten P's yet? (Sorry if you already mentioned it)
Can we have a toymods cruise to the bub's christening?
The spell-check function on this is way cool too.

Blerk says: uni doesn't have any hoses....ppl stealing them for bongs, oh and water fights, oh and one cottage got flooded cos one of the workers left a hose out and some d*ck decided to play a prank - except ppl in the cottage had things like ps2's and computers on ground level and they all got fried....and the uni doesn't cover things like that insurance-wise....uni relocated the ppl but no recovery for damaged personal items, grrrrr. So yes, can't wash cars at uni. Which is annoying because Carlover-type car washes make the paint flake off the camry, even when you are beyond the recommended 45cm away.
Non-metallic electric blue is the current colour of choice for the TA22, that's the original and saves having to respray places like inside the engine bay. Got the paint that came off with the paint stripper in my sneaker shoe treads....grrrr, but the effort will be worth it in the end.
I've decided I'll get a cow-print cow, to sustain my cow-print fetish, saves having to put a car through that ordeal
BR1183 says hi, but he's currently sitting on top of the petrol tanker watching the world go by, oh and checking on the 2000L of petrol he's pumping.
Does anyone have any ethanol complaints?
