What year mate? Missus had one of these and I had a Celica for a few years. What things need doing?
2002 black red leather, so pre-FL. I've put all 4 new Toyo T1-R tyres on, correctly staggered sizes for front/back, all new brake discs and pads, full alignment, replaced the gear bushings, replaced timing chain tensioner seal, replaced rear cross-member (common
problem), new front radiator, I refurbed the wheels black myself, sprayed a few parts, had the car professionally polished by Chris at Blam Detailing, new oil+filter, plugs and air filter.
what need doing is:
- Full caliper refurbishing and re-tapping of one of the threads for N/S/F calliper
- new coolant temperature sensor
- new anti-roll bars and drop-links (rotted to a thread), and bushings for anti-rolls
- could do with new shocks, but they're holding up
- lowering by 30mm (very light front end when doing 60+ mph)
- body brace
- may even take out power steering. It makes no sense in this car. Replacement rack is 250 quid
- bash out pre-cats from exhaust manifold (not interested in having a ULEV)
- new radio
- new headlights
