  1. I'd like to pick one up soon and was wondering if it's possible to fit in the back with the seats down? Maybe someone has an OEM box and would be kind enough to drop the dims below?
  2. So jealous about the sills, can't get sh1t now lol 2000s must have been an amazing time to own a MK4.
  3. Looking for that big cluster of pipes that sits above the turbos. In good condition w/o corrosion.
  4. This is amazing, I hope to one day do something like this myself... Where did you get the flip stand for the frame?
  5. Thank you! Mine must have been lying at the bottom somewhere because that looks so weird...I'll order some up.
  6. So could someone post a photo of what lights up on their dash, before the engine is started?
  7. Makes sense as I had the front end off but I'm still not sure how it fits...can someone post a photo if you still have this piece installed?
  8. I'm interested to see what lights come on when you set the key to position II?
  9. Sorry to hi jack but I've been having an issues since April where my old and new alternator is not charging the battery after it lost power one day...although the car starts and runs okay, I can't get that battery light to come on during ignition. I also see you have the rear cluster fault light on too...is this normal during ignition stage? I changed my UK spec rear lights to JDM and I'm not sure if that light is normal as I too have it on (when I bypass the alternator I get the battery light and rear cluster light both coming on, just can't start the car obviously) I also have an aftermarket alarm that requires an extra click for the car to start and I'm wondering if it's causing these issues as all lines and fuses are good. ps - have you looked at the plugs/coil pack?
  10. As I'm changing my front end I had all the front panels off and this rubber piece showed up...where does it actually go?
  11. Anyone with electrical experience have any other suggestions on what could be causing: 1. The battery light not to coming on during ignition when alternator is installed/plugged in - light 100% works when tested w/o alternator installed. 2. Battery not charging when engine running - new alternator passed bench test...yet both the original and new alternators behave like this when installed. Everything concerning the alternator loop, like fuses/wires all seem to be good, nothing looks out of the ordinary. Could the immobilizer/aftermarket alarm be causing issues?
  12. Looking for one or two, new or old style, can be snapped in half as long as the studs are good.
  13. You got any turn signal lamps?
  14. If you have looms you might not need for whatever reason, let me know.
  15. Also I see the seal goes way under the wing...who ever did mine left a huge gap there and it all rusted up down there
  16. Did you do the install yourself? Was it hard to remove the old one?
  17. Tried to do a diagnostics check using a paperclip the other day but I don't have anything flashing. I used to do it with my MR2 but can't get it to work with this car. Are there any scan tools available?
  18. The ones with the cut outs for rear markers - any condition.
  19. I might have no choice unfortunately, there's no one that will send it to me, I've asked many supplies. Apparently a Toyota dealer can do it but they seem clueless when you email them about it. I'd have to travel quite a bit to get to one...sure it's the last thing I could try but I can't see them being much use in person either. These shirt and ties are never clued up about anything you ask them. As far as OEM windshields, I see two types: a "BLUE" and a "BLUE W(TOPSHADE)". What's the difference, is it the black dots around the edge?
  20. No one is willing to sell me a windshield and I need one. If they get imported somehow without damage, surely they can be courier'd the last 100 or so miles... Anyone had one imported direct?
  21. Yeah still not charging (pulley is intact and marked). I no longer get a Battery light on the dash at all, nor the Engine light...and diagnostics doesn't work either. I had a hand with a few checks (Ref 1995 Electrical book: Charging P68 and Power Source P56) to check the Alternator/Charging System fuses. 120V ALT, ALT-S, IGN, GAUGE all seen to get power too and really can't find much wrong there. The only other thing is to check is the 3-pin plug but the Alternator will need to be pulled out again to unplug it. If the 3-pin plug is fine, could it possible be a bad alternator? Also could someone post a photo of what lights are meant to show on the dash during ignition please? PS what is a Combination Meter??
  22. Moved the car somewhere else as I have some stuff to do and decided to double check the battery while running...it's below 12V again. It's not an earth either. It was definitely showing 13V+ the other day so the alternator must be working at least some of the time if it was charging. Electrics is not my strong point so trying to find what's causing this will be a pita.
  23. Pulley seems intact and the black wire was attached to the positive stud in the fuse box, so I removed it...maybe what remains of an old alarm? Checked the battery again and it was charging this time, over 13V ...so maybe it was a bad connection before. But when I took it out I noticed the master warning light and rear tail fault light would flicker, when at lower speeds mainly, 40 and below iirc. Thinking about the rear lights, I did swap out my uk spec to a jdm set and the rear tail fault light does come on during ignition, could that be the issue? Fuse is fine and all rear lights work. Can a disabled active spoiler (via button on dash) cause any issues? It drives fine but I'm quite jumpy after having it break down and when I saw the lights flicker I was panicking in case it breaks down again
  24. I'll give it a more thorough look this weekend.
