The import plate does say its a 1995 model but when i go to toyota with the chassis number they say it was made in march of 96. There is a photo ofthe engine on car domain its a bit dirty and messy but thatis going to get cleaned up in the next couple of weeks as i have broken a piston running to much boost and i an goin to paint a heap of things in the engine bay.

It might not be there.
Runs out of rego today & won't pass pink slip at the moment.
That's strange. Mine comes up as a Jan 96 model from Toyota, & mine is definitely the later model.
Jan 96 was the changeover from yours to mine.
Do you know how to read the lens number on your front indicators?
Theres a number printed in the plastic on the bottom (next to "Toyota") eg mine is 21-25.
Can you let me knwo what yours is coz I might be able to put your type lens in my car to replace the parkers.

Yeah, I was wondering about the wheels too.
You didn't have them on there last time I saw the car.
BTW, I'm driving upto Qld on Sat 11 Dec till after Christmas.
We should organise a Caldina cruise.
Do you know of any others up there?

No the intercooler is not standard, i think that the only thing in the engine bay that is standard is the abs.
The number on the bottom of the lens is 20-306.
Did you get hold of the wreckers in Bris about the lens?
Joshy how you doin? i have got a piston from Sara and i dont know if it is actually the piston any way, will find out on the weekend when the motor comes apart

nice caldina.
I own a stock ST190 Corona 1.8 and I'm interested in your suspension setup, how much and where did you get them? I'm beginning to dislike my ride height.
