Seems like a more knowledgable place than CCUK for the Gen6 anyway!

Any idea how i can carry on with the rest of my life without constantly thinking about the celica on the drive lol. Thats why im still up at 1:30am...

Only real thing i wanted to ask was how to adjust the handbrake as you have to pull it up quite far to get it to stop the car. Not a major issue but i sometimes park it on a slope and couldnt live with myself if it rolled away! Or would you think its maybe worth replacing the cable?

ahhh, the handbrake.

I forgot about that as i never park on a slope.....

Yeah, it seems to engage, then you let go and then you can move it up a bit more. I got new handbrake shoes last year, and it started doing that.... i think it just needs tweaking, i just got used to it, but it should be an easy fix.
Sorry, i never thought about it while you were there......

There is a way to adjust the handbrake, i'll look for it tomorrow mate (pissed now) laugh.gif

i think it should be mandatory for mods to own 6gc's

i think that theory pretty much goes out the window when the OWNER of this site no longer owns a celica.

get over it.

Haha...drowning sorrows? No problem mate but if you do have any info would be great! Its not a problem really as it does hold when you pull it all the way but thought maybe a simple adjustment would sort it...anything i can do to tinker lol! All the hard work and graft has been done biggrin.gif

Tom, i think the Chilton book i left in the boot will have instructions for adjusting the handbrake cable........ I think you have to get the armrest box thing off where i left all my CD's! laugh.gif

Were they all burned discs, or did i leave any originals?
