What nolathane bushes did you get? Because I once went to get some for my ST162, and the only replaceable ones are the lower control arm bushes and the sway bar mount bushes. All the other ones are set in the assemblies (like the ball joint bush, steering arm bushes etc etc)?
Also, the swar bar linkage is a piece of shit on the ST162 - do you get better ones with the whiteline swaybar.
Btw - that is a %$^&ing nice ST162 man...I blew my load twice.
I hope you got an LSD in there though with all that torque at the front wheels. Talk about torque-steer!

that is thoughout for an ST162 man, swaybar bushes, control arms bushes, I had to get new ones pressed onto my control arms as well, cause I had an oil leak which had eaten the old ones.
Yeah they are pretty pathetic, no you don't get new ones, but you may be able to buy them, I actually hae the ones off the ST165 GT4 on mine cause they are alot better (another bonus fron the halfcut).
No man no LSD I have the 4WD box with locked transfer case, so my driveshafts (The GT4 ones) are the same length, hence I don't suffer torque steer.
Yeha too bad about my site didn't know that thanks man, I am gonna redeisign and put one up on my ISP webspace eventually

You can get new ones from toyota parts dealers, but they aren't cheap - and they still suck.

nope no respray thats the original paint job, if you get close you can see a bit of crowsfoot startin here and there, plus the damn carpark dents , No it's just those shots I took the morning before the canberra celica groups Hot4's photoshoot article (my car was in it, yay) so it was cleaned up to the max and polished up real nice.

Hey there joel. Good to see your awesome ride again. We'll have to try and get a run together next Toy Nats. I reckon it might be close. I'll post a piccy of my 165 when I find a decent one.
