hey guys just updated, took me forever to get these photos up. family and friends calling me up wanting to see the car. My photoshop skills on the number plate is crap, just rushed it.

I had a big night last night, got a mild hangover...so i look F'ed up. HAHA! I'm actually over the moon, being really careful on the revs. Took me a few trial and error to figure things out in the car (IT's way of fixing things, ask st162celica, he'll agree ).

Love the ride, almost got my car scratched by some crazy old lady whizzing pass me on a spilt lane (not sure if that made any sense). err....there is a funny metal or is it fuel sucking noise when you give it mildly heavy load sounds like it's coming from the back right side like "ting ting ting" something like that. It's not loud, it's slightlyl noticeable, very soft sound in the background.

Quick question, sorry for the long post, is the brake pedal supposed to feel a little sticky. like once you press the brake pedal down, then lift your foot, it takes like a split second to pop up, as in it doesn't push against your foot the whole time?

congrats buddy, anyways, that sound when accelerating, i suppose a soft rattle? i asked the dealer he said it was normal as the headers when cold would sound like this, but slowly if you notice, the sound slowly disappears when the engine gets hotter...so i guess it makes sense...for the pinging noise, i dunno what the fck that is, it only happened 2-3 times for me in 3 weeks, so i really can't reproduce it lol...

and yes, the break was screwed up when i got the car....but 3 weeks into it now, its ALL GOOD ! just step on it more and it would be fine!

congrats again buddy

It looks pretty clean for a pre-detailed delivery! When's your opti-coat planned?

And congrats of course!
