yeh i know. i give mine hell and it doesnt give a damn. neva uses any fluids, so reliable! if anythings going on it its gonna be the tyres 
i dont know about u but im finding it really hard to mod though. seems its not really set up for the aftermarket eh...
but ummm, what do u mean by 6 lights?
anyways im gonna get a celica with the same engine. the corona goes hard bet the celica looks better i think.

yea, im the same with tyres 
well, youve got your front pakers which is 2 lights
low beems which takes it to 4 lights (2 parkers and 2 low beam)
high beam, which is now 6
but i must of meant 8, cause theres a little switch on the dash just below one of the air vents, when you have your high beams on, you flick the switch and 2 more spotties pop up!!
i only found this out about 2months ago after owning it since october, and i didnt find it, i got shown it!!
classic

hey dudes yea i am thinking of buying my mates 1984 (live rear end) or 85 22rz auto rona he has just bebuilt it with forged internals and its got high compression round like 10 or 11. but yea it goes hard but the bloody auto eats all of its power cost its so shit at changing gears. we got it off the clock the other night with half throttle because if you put anymore down the stupid auto drops back to 3rd. but yea they go hard, cheap to replace parts and all the rest of it. One of the most priceless moments in that beast was when it was just being warn in and some dudes rock up in a vl Calais sick mate. Anyway my mates puts the throttle half way a pulls away from em and the next set off lights there like "man what have u done to that thing is it turbo ed" hes like na its na, u shoulda seen there faces, priceless!

well don't know about claims of 120 in 2nd by my calc that'd be well into the redline, ie doing about 90-100 in 2nd is pipping the redline so 120 would be well in and would take ages to get there as is heaps faster in third by this time anyways. But yeah my driving lights aka extra on high beam switch is always on, so much better.
Low beam = the suck high beam + additional set omg i can see forever
