Hello there
My celica has been parked up for the last five weeks cause the front right brake caliper is siezed on it an my local Toyota garage is or was suppoed to be getting the part for it. they keep tellin me it will be in next week an it never is so I'm giving up hope of gettin it off them.They are sayin it's different to the normal jap import an that it's on backorder in Japan I live in Ireland and have a Jap imported Beams Red top vvti Celica.ihave the engine and chassis number so if anybody out there has one or knows of a place where I can get a front right brake caliper I would be so grateful.

think they would be the same for any of the celicas.. think the sport package had larger ones but the capliper would prolly be close ifnot the same.. but I could be wrong

don't know at all....the garage is saying that the jap models to the european ones are different which is fair enough but you'd imagine that at the jap ones are the same..either way I still don't have a car

your car probably has the 4-piston calipers, and you can not use the regular celica ST204 set-up

you have the SuperStrut by the sounds of it, and the only person i know to have gotten those was Roo, but he's been gone for some time now...

Nope. It had the same brakes, just different suspension tuning.

TCD - Toyota Celica Breakers... very reliable.. problem being they know what stuff costs from toyota - but they won't shaft you ! ie a facelift fog is about £50 - new they're £120...
