    Hey Ben..... now that you have those nice 5 spoke rims the rust colour on the rotors and calipers is spoiling the look (imo)...... Have you considered cleaning them up and painting them the same colour as the rims or painting them black, nah! Gunmetal........... Use something like 'Dupli-Color Metalcast Colour Paint' for high heat tolerance.
    I'v got to say I would love a Celica in Gunmetal.

    One of the finest 4th gen verts I've ever seen. I especially love the gunmetal color of the wheels. Gunmetal wheels= :bowdown Compliments the red color of the car alot.

    Hi

    Sorry it's been so long...aback injury has meant I haven't been doing much.

    Lastest little improvement has been a new gaiter and having my gear knob recovered.

    Just back in time to look at your knob,Ben. :naughty
    You've done really well with your car,i'm looking forward to seeing it again in January (just hoping my power steering issue is sorted by then)
    From looking at it in the flesh as it were,at the gen4 meet you've had a result with this car.Ok the previous owners were obviously challenged in the taste area and also a bit mental on the mechanical front,but thank god you got to it before they ruined it!Looking sweet,really does. :thumbsup:

    the controls are usually where the right side coin holder sits. Maybe it's sitting further down not shown in the pic

    Nope, no lumbar-controls.

    I might be wrong, but I think it's only the ST165s that have it here.

    that's odd...i have the same seats in my gt-s and it has electric lumbar+side supports. check under the driver's seat if there's wires, maybe you just need to have buttons to have it working! seeing as how toyota seems to have made one part and made it for several functions, just disabling what's needed.

    Yes, normally these kind of seats have electric lumbar and costal controls.
    Even in UK :tongue:
