[/IMG]As when bought. Needing to sort out refurbing wheels ( colour yet to be decided but I'm leaning towards bronze)
Removing spoiler and carbon wrapping bonnet,roof,boot.
Gone for a blitz panel filter but other than an exhaust I'm not looking at going to mad for power so that it remains reasonable to run daily.

nice...140 or 190?
Newbie - CarbonBlue - 02-09-2020
190
I had a 140 a couple of year back. Only got rid of it due to 2nd child but after 12 month of hell first with a vauxhall then an mg I am over the moon to be back in a Toyota
Loving lift lol I can see why Honda boys rave about vetc
Newbie - ormi - 02-09-2020
the toyota vvtli is more agressive than the vtec and youll also find you leave the vtecs standing too...just keep on proper oil changes and itll go forever...also make sure the plugs have been done worn plugs really hinder performance on these cars..

:thumbup: I've had plugs out other week but looked fine, oil has been topped up and is fine till next year judging by the look of things.
Gave battery a charge last night and so look good till new year when I'm planning a week off work to service car, refurb wheels, spray rocker cover and get some wrap on

Nice car mate, I had a 190 import before my tezza and have to say they are fantastic motors! Still have a real soft spot for em'
Newbie - CarbonBlue - 02-09-2020
Saying that I still need to sort out a torque wrench so I can whip the rocker off and replace the 'lift bolts'
With mine been a preface lift there is a chance I may have the original design of bolts which are prone to snapping. Bought them a few month back now but have just left them sitting in the glove box lol
