U r welcome "CHOOTI PUTHA".Performance cars are mostly owned by Rich guys who doesnt care about money.So they spend money on Expensive mods,tuning etc.But car other users spend less money on these stuff.The majority are just Normal car owners.Sometimes highlanders car must be a Carb1 and he might be a normal car user.So 5k might be Expensive for him.So there is no use of fighting over it......He will spend the amount he can afford and U will spend the amount u can afford.So the problem is solved

very true Ek3 but da problem is highland milk was going around saying that he is much more rich than i am...so how come he cant spend 5K???? anyways its all good.

Dude, part of that growing up process is to stop name calling. The guys handle is highlander, not highland milk. Its not clever, its not mature, and considering you have a winning point and no need to argue, completely pointless. There will be people who disagree with your views on every single subject you can come up with. You may not find ppl to agree with you on everything, but you will find someone to take another view, every single time. Don't take it as a personal affront that people don't follow your point of view. Its just their point of view. Once you make your view known, thats it, leave it at that, don't make it personal.

Guys, I am new here.

Want to get some advice on EFI tune up.

any one who has a Starlet EP 82 EFI model?

From where did you get tune up done?

Is Toyota lanka ok or any cheaper and good place around?

Roughly how much will it cost ?

Thanks a lot.

Lal Alawatta sucksss...if u think lal alawatta is the best mechanic for your car?? i must say think twice..telling you this with experience..once i went there bcz my car had a engine mis.Mr.potato garden didn't even properly inspect my car and assign a unprofessional uneducated mechanic.he tried various dump things which is not even related to the misfire.after one hour of mechanics bull shiting procedures he informed mr,potato garden.and the he came and told me that my car has a electrical issue it will take long time to fix it therefore he cannot do it.i asked him to scan the car for any trouble codes he replied me its a waste of time.

this is my experience i had with alawatta so i never suggest him to anyone..
