1980 Celica RA40 Parts Wanted

[laura]

Hi. Since buying my 1980 Celica Liftback a couple of years ago i have really struggled with parts. I am currently after a Timing Chain Tensioner and an Idler Arm. I also need a gasket for I think you would call it the downpipe manifold gasket??? Please help. Laura

Hi Laura
Is your car a GT with 18R-G ?
Have you tried your local exhaust place , someone like kwik fit for the gasket ?
Or you can buy gasket paper and make your own , something like this , althou this particular listing doesnt state exhausts , but you could ask

Toyhead Auto has the exhaust gasket near the top of page and the upper chain tensioner , about halfway down this page

toyheadauto.com/PerformancePages/18RG_Parts.html

Or you could try TCB. You are best to phone them as they have lots of parts not listed on their site

www.tcbparts.co.uk/

Or if you wan to try Toyota here are the part numbers

Exhaust gasket - 17451-41020
Timing chain tensioner - 13550 - 88210

There is also a gasket for the tensioner , which you may or may not need which is 90430-22135

I'm not sure of idler arm number..
