kurust used to be a very good product - ive not used it for a number of years - but it would react with surface rust Think you then need to paint over it with something else In regards to the subframes rotting thorugh - yes they are rotting all the way through, so much has been the demand in the last few months that I have actually run out of them on the shelf and they are having to be removed on order- the years of stockpiling them has actually paid off, same went for the shelves of petrol tanks and filler pipes that I had The main area they are going is - the two arms at the top of the subframe that go forward and bolt on to the body and also the drivers side just in front of the camber bolt - which is going to be a hard area to clean and treat with it on the car

Look for a gt4 space saver

Yes the drivers side rear does corrode a lot more than the passenger side The back plates on the rear brakes are always rotten on the drivers side but passenger side are normally good Also the sills and subframes tend to go on the drivers side Also sell a lot more drivers side shocks and springs (front and rear) Drivers side headlights also out sell passenger side headlights (but thats nothing to do with road salt!) I like the puddle theory - has been bothering me for a while - also ties in with why mine might be ok - lots of wet motorway runs at high speed to wash it off underneath

So my car regularly gets covered in road salt - and it can often be a few months before I wash it and even 5000 miles upwards - terrible yes I know. Recently have had a lot of customers with rotten fuel tank and rear subframes and a few instances of sills going Now I looked under my car with a view that if the sills had started to rot (or the tank or subframe) that would be the end of it but to my suprise all were solid and better than a lot of others that I see. Now I dont know if its that my car does lots of long runs or the rain from the road washes it off but started me thinking is it really road salt that rots cars (wont do any good I know that) - I know people who live by the coast suffer from the sea breeze bringing in sea water which will ruin a car.

ask for a picture of just the drivers bolster, it dont look very good from here

t-cut red polish will bring that back to life

is it a g7 wheel - if so then the detonator should be standard - you can have one if you can pick it up

Use a detonator from another air bag instead - just unbolts with them 4 nuts

that link is a 140 one mate, and even on the 140s they are poor quality compared to the original I have a good used one - ill drop you a pm

not the ones im looking for mate but thanks for pics

if its turning over ok but not firing up then that would suggest battery, alternator and starter are ok. I would start with a new set of plugs and air filter, and may as well change the oil whilst your there

Yep have the studs which are standard rather than the nuts (if you do break the stud)

I would try a small and sharp chisel to try and turn it before drilling it, so make a dent in it and then tap it round have used studs if you dont want to go to toyota

. Fk me - that's all I can say

. Blimey mate / what were they? Did you ever get them back?

nice idea but not for me - fixing a problem that doesnt exist

I'm with Chris on this one - the rubber hoses very rarely fail, silicon hoses are too hard and as such don't seem to make as good a seal. Silicon hoses are for looks only imo Let me rephrase that Toyota oem hoses are very good quality - I can't say the same for most European manufacturers

If you can collect soon, I can give you most of the light grey plastics for free - this doesn't include the gear surround / climate control or top box - but can give you dash, glove box etc etc

Ive not seen one without 4ws yet , looks very nice

Useful if anyone else drives your car who doesn't drive it everyday and you leave it parked in gear

A lot of new rads are like this - 1000 miles on the road and it will be a lot worse - Id just fit it

How are the headlights wired up on the 6?

Wiring on the Celica is very good - if it was a french or VAG car then id say it's worth it.

I have one out - I'll check the part no
