but I have an other problem.. my exhoust is leaking a bit Wink

actually it is torn down before the first muffler so is making terrible noise Very Happy

I was @ home at 23.30 last night .... and the whole citty must have heard me Puh

but I have got some Stainless steel welding products of my own.. (100% argon gas, en stainless welding wire/thread... , so will make my own exhoust..

but for a 4agze and aiming for around the 200hp approx.

2 of 2,5 inch diameter?? couse now I still have the choise!!

I guess that bothe are sufficient for the Job Smile

and will work allot better than the old original one..

60mm pipe diameter. is fine. I used 55mm on mine which is NA. Considering yours is boosted I would go 60MM from the 2 point on. (so cut the pipe off at the place where the header goes from 2 -1

Posted: Tue Aug 12, 2008 9:27 am Post subject:

why from the 2 point on ??

By enlarging the header or so? to create more flow? Dont Quite untherstand that,
so somewhere between the 2 and 2,5 Inch..

will check for that after my hollidays to Mallorca.. Very Happy

it's probably the seal between rear pannel and rear light, just bosh some silicone between the 2 and put light back on Puh

owkee thanx banpai, I will check the car i a new gasket will do good, not that the problem is rust or so... and a new gasket will not help..

that would be a waste of money !

I have a rust hole so it also rains in my trunk. Embarassed

Posted: Sat Nov 01, 2008 2:48 pm Post subject:

Hmm.. new gaskets mounted.. pics up soon.. but water still enters the trunk.. Probarbly the big trunk sealing in cobination with the flange...

But my newest concerns are my rear wheel bearings.. the have got to be replaced before 14Jan, (APK)

Can not do it myself, they are pressed on the axle.. and fckng expensive € 260,- per side :O ex mounting....

and my clutch master cilinder is leaking...
but do I have to completly replace it or renew it ?? what is the bst option?

hmmm expensive month... verry expensive..

Posted: Sat Nov 01, 2008 5:44 pm Post subject:

I think there are rebuild kits for clutch master cilinders. Toyota probably has one. There might be cheap imitiation ones available as well.

I got my slave cylinder through Autopartsonline.nl and I thought they did sell the master as well...
You really need to replace it: it leaks brake fluid on the floor now which will strip off the paint on your floor. So it will be very rustprone then. Wink

I will check autoparts online then!!

Thanx art!
