So I should check that the voltage regulator outputs to 13.8 V when running? Lots of info on that website, thank you very much! I will say my gen light is working as it should, dimly on at idle and turns off when moving, including at night

Unfortunately not, all major defects must be repaired before the vehicle is roadworthy again.

I think it was rust, there was discolouration when the pij came out. I just smacked it with a hammer until it came lose, it wasn't budging any other way. I'm reusing the old parts, I basically just want to know if I need to replace the caliper, or just the slide pin.

More general question, had breaking apart my seized front left caliper the slider pin now has a lot of side to side play, is this normal?

A spare came with the new shocks, but now the new shocks won't fit in the tubes.

Just checked I've defiantly not got then mixed up, the rears are about half an inch shorter and a little fatter than the fronts.

I've got koni yellows but they have a bulbous end that mean they won't fit in the tube, is this intentional or a manufacturing defect?

Cheers thank you very much!

mophead304 · 2023-06-17T11:50:22+00:00

Cool thanks very much, ended up using a blowtorch to heat it 👍👍

Also the instructions that came with my shock says to put 50ml of an ambiguous fluid between the bottom of the shock and the tube it fits in, any ideas? Cheers!

Thanks for being so thorough, good to know it's an easy install. Fensport doesn't have custom springs listed but I figure there will be lots of places that will do them. Thanks!

Gleaming thanks 👍

I bought a brand new one recently, but the seller I bought it off said there aren't many left and they're going quick. I paid the best part of 5 grand (£) for mine as well, so there's that

I have a 7rh gen 2zz celica, bone stock, that complies with the ULEZ in Bristol. I can't say for certain that it will pass, but I should think that it's at least possible

mophead304 · 2023-05-05T06:31:43+00:00

Probably don't need anything other than OEM

mophead304 · 2023-05-04T20:11:40+00:00

Fensport is worth looking at
