as a side note, that black soarer i posted. it has 62,000 genuine km, the owner bought it in 2000 and is the second owner... he had a blinky dash but has fixed it..

get this. he had yellowing headlight lens' ... we get yellow headlight lens we polish it...

...this bloke oders new headlight units and foglight units genuine from toyota. that's why they look brand new.

car has full toyota service history and logbooks, full history with shaken.. since owning it he's installed that steering wheel custom ordered to match the toyota factory woodgrain,

18" work Vs-xx. eibach lowering springs. full dual exhaust system.

the car is amazing... can be yours for about 14 grand! :-) to think 4 years ago this would've easilly cost 30 grand...

damn that Soarer is straight as, credit to the owner... he really looked after it well, looks basically new inside and out.

Wow, nice.

Why do the Japanese stick those awful stickers on the back of their cars and on the dash? Both my Soarers had horrible residuals from stickers on them inside and out - took huge amounts of work to get rid of them, and my current car still has some marks on the boot lid.

polish them off using wax you jagaloon! :-)

or GENTLY use a window blade to remove it.. then polish it...

and - those stickers advertise the seller's blog that he writes. i read his blog. i didn't get it.


...also doesn't help that i don't read kanji. :p

ps - you're not actually a jagaloon. i don't actually know what jagaloon means but it's my word of the day!!!

ps - that colour on your soarer is nice! there's a few on sale in japan right now in that colour it only seemed to be available in the 2J... but it's SUCH a nice colour. makes me want coke. and i don't drink coke.

the end.

i don't actually know yet!

they won't be too exxy i can tell you that...

PM me your budget man, i'll most likely prefer to sell without tyres cos i'll probably be getting new tyres from compliance and sell the tyres to some drifter.

...and i'll also be likely to market the rims at the honda / mazda3 crowd, the offset would most likely fit their cars better

...speaking of which - a black mazda2 would look SICK with flush offset gold VS-xx

...my suggestion... get in touch with importmonster, get him to sort out shipping!

make these people a nice offer and get these put into one of importmonster's containers.

18x9 +20
18x11+20

seems to be heaps of tread on the tyres. would be a very good wheel and tyre package for you :-)

oh right - link is

^^there.

if you still want my 17's we can work something out! :-)

Rowan mate, I wasn't the one that emailed you. Some nice cars you have there though, and that one for sale on yahoo auctions is immaculate.

Tried that - tried all sorts of things. I wax my car every 3 months, and polish it twice a year (well, usually)
I even used a electric mop, which got rid of them on the UZZ30, but the glue seems to have discoloured the paint on my JZZ31 Its only noticible if you look very closely, but its still annoying.

Yup, its a nice colour, but its a pain in the arse to keep it looking nice! Shows all the dirt, paint chips, scratches and swirls, and the paint on the wing is stuffed. :-(
