TrickTT Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I have a used, but excellent condition heater matrix from a J-spec TT, (but will fit all models) as I replaced my entire cooling system last year. These cost over £200 for the matrix from Toyota. I am offering this for sale, fully fitted, for £575 which will include replacing the 2 heater hoses under the bonnet if neccessary. All you will need to do is regas the airconditioning - Ibrar is about 20 minutes away and does an excellent job. The job will take 2 - 3 days depending on the weather and I live just outside Birmingham. Any questions, PM me. Rich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Bloody hell Rich that's an amazing price. I know where to go if mine every goes, if you're up for doing another of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tDR Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Has anyone found a supply of all metal (that looks like plastic end tanks? never had one from a Supra in my hands) aftermarket heater matrix's? Maybe an idea from one of the places that do I/C's and chargecoolers like Pace? In the hope that it will last longer than the Toyota unit...

TrickTT Posted March 5, 2007 Author Share Posted March 5, 2007 It is an all aluminium part. The black on the end tanks is foam insulation to seal it into the heater box. The only reason the supe one rots is the in and out pipes are both at the top, so any crud just stays in the bottom and rots them out. Frequent coolant flush/changes would stop them ever rotting. This one is mint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schtuv Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 For what I've heard about the heater matrix and its fitting, that's a superb price! Weren't there some pics and ranting posted by Dude regarding this job some time back, on here?

toyo rob Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 love to have this but the chance of me getting over to drop the car off in birmingham for a few days is very unlikely!! bloody typical just when the perfect solution pops up something's there to bite it in the arse!

Sheefa Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Rob, I may heading down to Essex soon anyway to see one of my old uni pals. If so, I could potentially give you a lift back after you drop it off to Rich. Wouldn't be going til early April though as he's out in Afghan at the mo.

Sheefa Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 Rich, Do you not just fancy holding on for a bit? I'm sure mine will go sometime soon. I'm trying to weigh up whether or not prevention is better than cure now! Just keep it. As it's approaching Summer anyway there will probably be little interest buddy, until it hits Sept time next year! Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
