I tend to use WD40 or GT85. Can't really say which works best had good and bad results from both. If i know i have a job coming up that will require moving stubborn nuts bolts i tend to dose them up for a few days before doing the job. I know that's not always the case and have to do them as and when you get to them. I think unless your in the trade and have to use the stuff all the time that WD40 GT85 is OK to use and mainly gets the job done.

Can you pm me a price with delivery please Ams. Chopping the pipes off and rejoining whit hose is a good idea.

Guys i may have to replace the heater core in my 2001 190 vvt-i . I have a leak and the carpet is wet more than likely the core but may be a hose but doubtful . So my question is does the dash have to come out on the gen 7 to replace it like it does on earlier models . Had to take it out on my gen 5 when i replaced that one.

All new rear brakes . Shoes , Fitting kit , Pads , Calipers , Discs , 3 piece handbrake cable set on the rears and refurbished the front along with new sliders , Bolts , pads. New mot with clean sheet.

I just made the 2 inner rears in to tail and fog lights

Use a more aggressive compound to start with for your cover and pipes. Go back down to the compound you used for the lights and then finish of with a metal polish.

All done and working .

They are both double filament on each side. So basically if i disconnect the inner 2 lights from the brake side of the circuit and wire that to a fog switch to work as fog lights . Leave the side light one as is to stay working as tail lights. That way both tail lights on either side will still work as tails and the inner ones will work has fogs instead of brake. Cheers mate.

A guys would anyone have a link on how to convert the 2 rear lights in to fog lights on the jdm celica. I done it years ago when i had the gen 5 but have no idea how i done it as was following a guide which i can't seam to find now. Wanted to do the same thing on the new jdm supra as it should be the same idea. Cheers guys.

Along with the supra.

All ready for the New Forest meet.

These are pretty cool. All the plastic clips for the celica.

Personally i think all cars should have an mot check. Most people on hear would agree even if your cars are up together they would still mot it. Take new cars from the factory they don't get an mot for the first 3 years. How many people know of the new cars taking their first mot after 3 years that have failed and that's only 3 years from new. It's a stupid idea. OK enthusiasts do tend to look after their cars bikes ect better than Joe blogs. Some are no mechanic and have work done for them and wouldn't necessarily realise or notice something was wrong.

Just had the Air con tested for leaks and new gas put in. What a difference it has made to. Much needed in this hot weather.

Mine is stock engine well mainly stock so would suite it fine. These turbos come with 3 different size springs for the actuator and also a ball bearing kit to fit if wonted which is much better than the floating bearings. As Paul said the billet wheel spools quicker but no noticeable performance just a bit quicker on the power.

Cheers guys. Yes they did use to be partners in Kinugawa then separated and formed Mamba apparently due to arguments over quality . Going to look into Garret turbos i think they are a bit more expensive around 700 for the celica gt4. I wont something reliable over cost.

Firstly sorry if this is the wrong section feel free to move. OK Mamba Billet Turbos I am on the verge of ordering one for the 165 gt4 has anyone had any experience with them ?. Have read a lot of reviews and all in all they seem to be a good buy . I don't wont to go and spend out over £6-700 and find they are not very good. The kit comes with braided oil and water lines gaskets and turbo to manifold,exhaust bolts. Thanks for any info you may have about them. Cheers Shaun.

I agree with whats been said . Derren hit the nail on the head about dislodging something that other wise would have never caused a problem if left alone.

I have had 5 celicas and had no trouble with them. Tell a lie my 165 has been a lot of work but that goes with them and i knew most of the work that had to be done. My gen 7 190 has had no issues at all in the 2 years i have owned it. and i find much more relaxing to drive than the other celicas. My son had a accord and had nothing but trouble with it. So i guess it's the same has any car you get bad ones from all makes.

A mate of mine just passed his mot with no rear belts he did however take the rear seats out no seats no belts and it went straight through.

14 Ignition reference signal -no signal Wiring, ignition module, ECM

Not had it myself mate but i did have the boot seal leak on the roof part and use to get drips on the back seat . Had the windscreen replaced on the gt4 a few weeks ago and the guy who fitted it told me to leave it an hour then it would be good to go.

My new arch roller Now to get the spacers on the gen 7.

Cheers Paul will give them a call.
