Re: Alternator help needed!

Just fitted a new alternator to mine yesterday and I found lining the lower pivot bolt up was easier from underneath the car using a small scredriver in the whole first wiggle it about until it feels loose then try sliding the bolt through.

Re: [FINALIZED] Toyota Mr2 Rev2 NA UK model. 300 quid!

I can vouch for this car as I sold it to Rich, one of the most solid examples i've seen and by the look of it Rich has looked after it well since my ownership.

Good luck with the sale mate and your new turbo looks nice from what I can see in the pictures.

Re: [FINALIZED] Dec 95, Caribbean Blue, Mk2 Rev3 GT T-bar Turbo

Such a shame your selling up Tony.

I can vouch that this is one amazing MR2 both in looks and performance, have seen it many times and is worth every penny Tony is asking.

Good luck with the sale
