  1. With e5 and e10, id try leaving as little as possible in the tank if its parked up for a while. Ive had loads of cars that have been parked for ages and the fuels come out clean and they have started after 3 or more years of being parked, with the ethanol content, it does turn to sludge a lot more, Other thing I find on cars that have been parked a while is that its worth taking the plugs out and giving them a clean and also take off the distributor cap and take off the build up inside on the tips
  2. ive had good quotes on classic policy with low miles with footman james
  3. g1 - liftback (but do like the coupe almost as much) g2 coupe g3 liftback (by a mile) g4 liftback g5 liftback, closely followed by convertible g6 convertible, closely followed by liftback, like the coupe but only in curren form.,
  4. where is the car - maybe see if a local member can take a look before you pay for a proper inspection?
  5. lovely looking car, before i bought my first gen7, I nearly bought a kaminari kitted car but wanted to build mine from scratch, nearly painted mine a similar colour as well
  6. only issue ive seen on the gen7 ecus is the immobiliser part and keys no longer matching , not looked at root cause
  7. wish id kept that 2nd set for my gen4 now, just didnt have the space
  8. 3 spokes if its a 205 much prefer the latter 15" wheels for the gen4 or the 165 wheels gen7 5 spoke wheels on a gen5 or gen6 ma61 wheels on a g1,g2

  10. parents sat outside schools / training grounds idling whilst they wait for there kids is one of my pet hates
  11. Hi, I'm working on my son's 2004 "Red" special edition Celica 140.  I'm looking for a boot seal and also some advice on a drivers door lock.  Someone tried breaking in and the outer lock is nackered.  It opens from inside but not from the handle outside.  I think I'll buy a replacement door as it was damaged at the same time but do you know what I can do about the lock/handle?

    Thank you, Rich.

  12. should be a sticker under the bonnet?
  13. A lot of sellers are middlemen. So they will create 1000s of listings of items that they dont personally have in stock but there suppliers have, when an item sells they then ship directly from manufacturer/supplier. This is why you might find the same item for sale by 10 - 20 different sellers but when you buy it, they are all out of stock - this happens with UK sellers as well. A member on here had it with ta22 shocks a few years ago. ebay doesnt give out email address's anymore to sellers, you get a forwarding email address instead.
  14. seals on the gen7 are generally ok, main thing is putting a film of oil on them before putting the pipes back in - usually use the old compressor oil that comes out
  15. Might also be to do with average emissions across there range, they need the smaller cars to balance out the bigger ones to meet targets. There are some bolt on supercharger conversions available.
