Bump

40mm lowering springs wanted for the gi so have to be the p8s (89-96).

Pm me

I have a good c52 box here idrees. Recently rebuilt.

Gave the underside of the bonnet a good clean and replaced the washer jet piping. Well worth the effort

The car has just flew through its mot and is now taxed and ready to go. This is why i love Toyotas. Reliable as hell!

They were 15x7. Advans usually only come in 6.5j that's what made these a rare wheel. The grip wasn't amazing at speed but i did the car up for looks more than performance

Nice to see another 199 silver 82 looks great buddy

New thermostat fitted. Fully flushed the radiator and block. Cleaned the thermostat housing the best i could.

Had a couple of hours spare after work so i decided to take a look at the condition of the thermostat. It's safe to say I'll be replacing it as well as cleaning up the housing.

I hope to bring it to jae Matt. I'll find out tomorrow if i can have it off then I'll book my tickets

That is ridiculously clean! Quick question what do you use in order to clean up metal parts with the surface rust?

It's not 100% but it has cleaned up well compared to what it was. I used wet and dry sandpaper and decent metal polish buddy.

Looks brilliant mate, any plans for mods?

Not really wanting to modify it tbh. I may put some slightly lower springs on it but other than that it will remain standard

A few pics of the car

Looking good Sam

John

Thanks john. Just need to get my act together and have it ready for jae

Received my no smoking ashtray with insert all the way from new Zealand

Mirrors repainted

£15 a can. I bought 6 so alot cheaper than a body shop

Yes buddy. I think i have a spare can?

The retaining bolts for the headlights looked a little sorry for themselves so gave them light spray.

Looking fresh! Wish my misses liked starlets as much as me, she wants a bloody golf!

What paint did you use on the bodywork mate? My gts the same colour and needs some tlc

I had some paint mixed up at my local motor factors. I removed the fuel cap cover as a swatch. They scan it in 3 different places and find the closest match. It's 199 silver.
