DIY section...

**MartinGouda** · 08-23-2005, 04:03 AM

i must say that the MR2OC site's DIY's are great and i would love to write up bunch

**Lfsabch** · 08-23-2005, 03:48 PM

i always wondered if the site should have that, it will bring in more people i think, make it members only to so they register

**RN2NVS** · 08-23-2005, 04:01 PM

we had a diy section for 3 years and not one person wrote an article

regardless i think ratko already has that in his plans

**Ratko** · 08-23-2005, 04:09 PM

its a great idea. the hardest part is writing the content. actually putting it up and organizing it in a coherent way is easy for me.

**Lfsabch** · 08-23-2005, 04:16 PM

i would have written up one for all the stuff i did if u wanted

would be hard now cause i cant go back and take pics

**MartinGouda** · 08-23-2005, 04:28 PM

really ther eisn't much to write for 7th's is there? everyone either runs a FI kit or a IHE setup.

only real diy's i know of are the DRL disable and redouts.

**Sal** · 08-23-2005, 04:32 PM

there are more than that.

**TRDcelicaGT-FOUR** · 08-24-2005, 01:44 PM

Do it yourself could be as simple changing your headlights. The idea of a DIY would be beneficial for newbs, and people who dont have a great mechanical background. Its meant for easier things. A newb reading a Motor swap DIY, probably would be sufficient, but to someone who knows what their doing, just needs a guide in the right direction it would make the world of difference.

DIY section gets my vote, although wouldn't benefit me, I could try to give a couple suggestions, write ups, etc.

**Sal** · 08-24-2005, 02:10 PM

i have the 7th gen service manual all the info u will ever need for diy

**MartinGouda** · 08-24-2005, 02:15 PM

i don't think we should waste bandwidth and site speeds for a manual at all.. when i said diy i meant mods that can be done by hand. changing you headlights should be somthing that you learn via the manual.. these in my eyes would be more the untold story to the cars. things like the s2k antenna install or other little mods that can be done at home

**TRDcelicaGT-FOUR** · 08-24-2005, 03:11 PM

removing headlights, are in the manual, but seperating them to paint the insides are not. So where do you draw the line of mods to have. How many fifth genners have short shifters? A DIY for a short shifter would be beneficial, but most people have had theirs installed by someone else, or read the instructions like I did, and did it myself. So Either have a full DIY, or don't.

**Ratko** · 08-24-2005, 04:02 PM

Sal, shoot me that 7th gen manual... i'll put it up on the site. i got more bandwidth than all of Zimbabwe.

**Sal** · 08-24-2005, 05:57 PM

You have enough for 100MB of 90 Celica factory manuals? I have it in saparate pages for all models (ST, GT, GTS, AllTrac, hatch, coupe).
Anyone have the latest EPC CD? The old one won't install when you have more then 2G space on the harddrive.

**Ratko** · 08-24-2005, 11:05 PM

yeah, whatever, just send it to me, i'll put it up.....

**3sgte@daspeedof** · 12-09-2005, 08:55 PM

so is this happening soon ratko? The manuals going up. I need to see a 7th gen manual about the antenna mount

**namberland** · 11-17-2006, 04:46 AM
