Day 2 part 2
pulled the bumper off again, drained what was left of the old coolant and replaced the rad with a new one. currently only running dematerialised water and will be doing another change in a week or so with genuine toyota red coolant.
after changing the rad i decided i wasn't happy with the way the front end sat especially the passenger headlight, so I messed around with that for a few more hours to get it sitting how it is now.
Also cut the airbags out as they were ****** me off
Took it for its proper maiden run with the locked up seatbelts and smashed windscreen, very surprised at what a decent car this is! have had about 35 toyotas in the last 5 years and this is a standout (along with the LS400, Starlet, ae82 twinky and AE111 trueno). drives great, handles great, heaps of power despite being stock as a rock. not bad considering e hit a tow ball at 25kph.
