when i bent my exhaust?

backed into a parking spot, went to drive forward to straighten up, car wouldnt go anywhere, got out n had a look, the back of the cars bumbper and exhaust had gone into the garden a bit, so the exhaust was catching on the kerb when I went to drive forward. I tried driving off on an angle, but it still wouldnt move, so i tried a "little harder" and it moved off, but bent the exhaust pipe upwards, the tip now melts the back bumper, and the exhuast sounds different.

Am getting it fixed monday

i have a really funny story to tell!!

My parents have this big block with an old house on it .... the old house they rent out and they've divided the block in two halfs ... one half has the old house and garden etc and then theres a fence and the back half they've left as bush for now (going to develop it one day)

Anyway somehow ... think by cigerette thrown over fence ... the bush block caught on fire! .... so the old guy renting the place rang the firebrigade and rang my mum.

My mum arrived and one of the FF's jumped over into the bushland block and started putting the fire out ..... it was a fairly small scrub fire so didnt take long and he goes "OMG ....*insert other Fireys name here ... for sake of story call him Bob come and look at this" So bob jumps the fence and bursts out laughing and he goes to my mum "Love how open minded are you - do you get offended easily?" My mums like "Nah nothing phases me" So out of the bush this firey pulls out this huge strap on dildo! ... apparently theres been some people squatting there - there was a matteress and some clothes and this huge dildo haha ...... mum then went down to the police station to report it and she goes to the police lady "oh there were some personal effects left there" and the lady goes "Like what? a wallet" and mum goes "Um nooo more like a strap on vibrator" haha

i would love to go to Spain - actually considering studying spanish for a while .... after all its the second most spoken language :D

oh and the firefighters took the dildo with them when they left - um disgusting!

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
