Oh, its huge.
All Celica XX's have the park bench.
NO! the damn cruise/trip computer doesn't work.
It get constant power, accessories power, ignition power, and earth, so something must be blown inside it.
I opened it up (VERY basic) but nothing was obvious.
Will give it to someone who knows what they are doing to check it.
But with the 7MGTE it will read WAY out, so, it will be useless.
Cruise doesn't work either, gotta sort that one out.

I talked to JCMF about that clutch LSD, I am tempted by it I must admit.
Cruise computer + control would be great, but a PITA to set up.
What engine did your XX come with factory?

You know the cruise control and the cruise computer have nothing to do with each other?

Forgot to mention, dunno whats been done to the suspension, but this is what I can tell
Rear springs look stock, not sure why it sits so low, maybe they are fux0r3d?
Rear shocks are Monroe. Silver canister, dunno what model. Any idea?
Front springs are blue, I am assuming Lovells standard height replacements?
Front shocks I dont know, and won't know until I pull them out, but its pretty hard.
They are probably the same as the rear.
I need some Kings and Tokico's

Wow, looks a lot like mine ... right down to the blue Lovells in the front. Though I've put Kings and KYB Gas-Adjusts in the back. And improved upon the 5ME a bit. Tell me that's not a monster windscreen washer bottle in the rear right if the engine bay!

Great to see a MA61 on your driveway after your attempts to make your MX73 to MA61
I so now want another MA61 (At a cheap price though ).

Yeah, it had a polish, and I didn't take any snaps of the other side on purpose.
Its not very nice.
However, I have a litre of paint sitting in my shed just bursting to be applied.

Hahah, nah, I don't even know if they work.
When I bought the car, the horn didnt work, but just last week, it started working.
But I don't know if its the air horns (I don't think they are airhorns) or the normal horn.
Meh
Its not lacoocarahcha either.

Stick it in the corner - I'll be over to clean it up soon!
Finally heard back from the licensing department today!
I've been given the go head for mods! Yay!
There's several things that have to be reported and checked out by an engineer.. Peewee, I'll discuss with you when i come over.
Let me know if you need a hand pulling anything else apart!
