Getting my Celica GT4 ST205 back on the road

[mybrainhurts]

After seven years standing in the drive!

And I've forgotten/lost details of those few UK parts suppliers. Can anyone help?

Really impressed with Toyota, everything works, apart from screenwasher jets. Even the handbrake freed off at the first attempt, holds on well and brakes stop strongly, despite a surfeit of rust.

Watch it, grunter...

I'll have you know I'm the fastest old fart in the west.

Well, after some diligent throstling around, I've found them all again.

Deep joy....

Carry on...

How strange, I'm getting mine back on the road after 3 years standing still Soon to be taking part in a PH Fleet update (when I finally get it back on the road)

[mybrainhurts]

Anybody know where I can get the turbo oil seals done?

It's a Fensport hybrid CT20B Stage 2.

It was smoking like a battleship before I took it off the road.

I think the go to people used to be Turbo Technics.

[mybrainhurts]

Aye, thanks. Just wondering if any more had emerged in the last seven years.

No offence but why leave a nice car standing for so long? Seems a waste to me...

[mybrainhurts]

Long story with some silliness along the way, which I'm reluctant to disclose, given the hiding I've had to endure for mistyping my user name....

[RedAndy]

dunno if you;'re still readnig this, but speak to TR&D in Nottingham, or Martin Kingston in Blackburn: both garages are GT4 specialists. proper specialists, not these alleged specialists.

[mybrainhurts]

Thanks. I knew TR&D when Ian was Toyauto. He built my engine before I bought the car, I believe...

Silly question, but have you tried Fensport ?

[mybrainhurts]

Yes, they only offer an exchange service at £1000.
