Re: alternator for f800eam

thanks i'll give it a go. the stack dash has a volt meter so dont need a light. at the moment it reads 12.7v i'm gessing it will go up to 13.5ish when working properly.

Re: alternator for f800eam

Re: SC brakes.....

celica gt st202 calipers fit im going to try the discs when i get the studs out. The Celica single-pot caliper has about 25% more piston area (front bias) for what it's worth, also remember that the Gen 6 Celicas have a 55mm bore not 54mm like the AW11. Hope that helps! :thumleft: the celica hub 54...
