Hi everyone.
My car is without MOT for the past 2 months. But, this is good in some way, because I haven't spend the money on a gas.
It was snowing last week so I couldn't hold myself, and I took a ride.

Personally I don't like them at all...Cool for the time being, but I suggest that you should buy yourself a proper Toyota grill and headlights one day... :wink:

Throw them away now and go buy yourself a proper Toyota grill and headlights...

Ok! As I said before, I did not have enough money to buy original headlights. So I had to do this.
My home adress is
Croatia
Trg Podravskih Heroja 4
48000 Koprivnica
So you can send me those lights and grill, and I will install them as soon as they arrive.
I wish to have original parts also.

cheers!

After long time and collecting parts, while my car was sitting in a garage, it's finally time for some action.
to do list: ina a week or so
- polyurethane bushing kit, all around
- my mechanic will make me adjustable lateral bar/panhard rod
- we will make some home made steering lock kit
- diff is going to be overhauled (new bearings)
- I bought complete front suspension from Hrc (thanx again my friend!)
T3 coilover kit with koni AE92 (short stroke) and QA1 8 kg/mm springs, T3 camber plates, T3 RCA 30mm
- rear suspension: new koni's adjustable with replica TRD springs (probably 6kg/mm)
- steering wheel is going to be restored also, and we put a spacer on it 10cm

Last BUT not least, I bought ORIGINAL Kouki front lights. Used, but in good condition.

very good condition i must say...

My mechanic (and real good friend) and me started to work on a car yesterday at 1.00 PM. Job was done at 8.00 PM. We had some problems with screws on old bushings, but everything else was gone smooth. Not bad for 1.5 men one day job.





as they were off the car, we sanded and painted mat black all the control arms and swaybars on the car. they look much better now.




finally, coilovers arrived, in a special wehicle, as I live few houses away




Koni's look real nice on the back, and bushings aswell


working class


at the end of a day... finally!


I bought used but original kouki Levin front lamps, so in a week or two, I will no more have Hachi-Uno
