I hear that Viva my poor GT4 hasn't had much love recently either
hope this has helped out with clarifying what the issue is with the paint though,
learnt about all this from Trevor who's been doing bodywork for about 40 years

yeah as mentioned above unfortunately having a respray done,
or sourcing the parts you need in good condition is the only way,
weather conditions will change how much the bubbles are visible
but they will always be there I'm afraid to say

The side of the car has been sprayed at some point that's for sure,
its either due to the sprayers filter as mentioned letting water get mixed into the paint
or its been sprayed with water based paints and hasn't had enough time allowed between coats
causing the water build up between layers,
you now have on your paint a severe case of microblistering
Hope this helps

Do TCB do new parts? I've bought from them before and their really good but thought they did just 2nd hand/reconditioned parts.
Tried Toyota, they wasn't very helpful. Going to try them again tomorrow and hopefully speak to someone else.
We do Indeed do new parts , we have hundreds of new parts on the shelf,
for example all of your service parts, suspension parts, gasket kit's, seals
caliper seal kits, radiators, brake pads, discs, various fluids and lots more which we're constantly expanding!
if we don't have what you require new on the website just give us a call and we can try to source it for you!
our website is also only used for listing our new parts so give us a call for any second hand requirements as we most probably have it
Thank you

in our experience we've encountered not much but problems with magnecores,
on the 205 engines they break down very easily and much quicker than even the OEM HT Leads,
I wouldn't fit them to mine and I didn't, stuck with genuine Toyota
and at
£79.65 + vat
its pretty damn good for genuine from ourselves
Thanks

in General Celica Discussion

Hi Guys,
we always recommend the Toyota Long Life Coolant (Red),
its the stuff it was designed to have when the vehicles came out from the factory
and its what we're always asked for by the GT4 owners as well as being the only stuff I will put in my ST205,
we keep it on the shelf at £17.94 + VAT
we do of course have a massive stock of parts in stock both new (pattern and genuine) and second hand
for the entire range of Celica so please think of ourselves when ordering parts or even if you just need some advice
with over 25 years of experience in the cars I'm sure we can help you out
Thank you
