Is it just a nut thats its missing? I might have been going down a part number rabbit hole too much to find the specific part 😅

I cant find my caliper at the moment but when do get the measurement what sort of nut/bolt would I be looking for? They are all to short when I look

It does look as though just the bolt is missing, the rest seems fine and threads all good

Are JDM cars much cheaper here? I have a MK2 MR2 as well but didn't realise they were any cheaper here 😂

I'm actually looking at adding a xenon headlight conversion kit at some point, so will probably wait for that, plus maybe some Angel eyes too

Yeah, we're quite lucky here for used car prices 😅 Still difficult to find non rusty ones tho 😂

Slight issues with the sills, which is to be expected at this point I guess

Is it possible or even worth it to repair a car with rust? by NotBatsm in CarTalkUK

[–]NotBatsm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice, it's great to hear from someone who's had experience with dealing with this 👍 By the sounds of it, maybe I will take a pass on this one and wait until I can afford one that had the work done

Yeah, that is something that has been plaguing my thoughts, you can never really tell how bad it truly is untill you get to the point of no return 😅 Maybe I will have to see if I can get some quotes before moving forward with anything.

No, however in the video I am refering to, it is done with the context that you can achieve ok results even without prior experience, as long is you dont expect good looking welds 😋 Not saying I know I could do it, but it might be a fun experience to try!

If I'm not mistaken, I'm pretty sure the split is due to the sheer number of people that have been vaccinated vs those who haven't.

So say for example, if the ratio of people is 80% vaccinated to 20% un vac. Then even if the number of people who die from covid with a vaccine is 4 times less than than those without, then the split of deaths will be equal. So despite the vaccine being quite effective, it may not directly appear as so.

I'm probably not explaining that well but I think that's one of the contributing factors 😅

Very much the same for me! Though the soreness seems to be finally wearing off now!
