Asad Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Just goes to show the quality of the parts used by toyota back in the day, all sensors everything was made in japan mostly by denso and weird named companies ...now they have gone to france/spain/holland = where the problems start Try and use Gates if you can Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 this 100% proves my belief that cars weere made better back in the day than now. really not a great fan of new cars and threads like these make me love older cars more and more Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 IMO cars assembled in japan are the best, pound for pound you get better spec and reliability than any other car Quote Link to post Share on other sites
