Drill it out, then tap a screw extractor or at worst a torx bit inside the hole, it should wind out.

Right might try that, sound for the help👍

All you need to do is enlarge the hole so you can get a decent torx bit in

Rang at least 4 motor factors and none of them do the bleed valves didn't bother trying the rest, so hope toyota do them, at a prise no doubth,

I bet they do them but not listed under the reg. Try asking for them for a n/a starlet or measure them and compare them to other cars. Theres no way that bleed nipples are different to so many other cars

Toyota have them, and at a price lol

I just took mine into the motorfactors and they got me one the same.

Ah just asked them do they do bleed valves for brake calliper's an they all said no,

Rang toyota an they can get them for 9euro for the 2 of them, so will just get them there
