Hi all,
My name is Arnaud, 29 years old & I've got a ST202 of 1995 with 195000km (I think around 120000 miles). I'm a French guy living in Bordeaux so please apologize for my poor language  By now: Stock admission with Green filter Stock exhaust with decat pipe 16" wheels with tires Nankang NSII Springs ultimate -40mm(-1.5inch) TRD Shift Knob By now, I've got a problem with the timing belt & I don't know why. I changed it with a friend and after 1000 miles without any problem, my engine stopped during driving on the Highway. Pic of my timing belt  So by now my ST202 is parked at a friend house to replace the timing belt & in the same time change seals of came shaft, cylinder head cover & crankshaft. When I get back it, I change : all the fluids : Motul Gear 300 for the Gear Box & Motul RBF 600 for the Brake. Front brake : EBC Disc+Red pads suspension : Tein SuperStreet Coil-over tails light JDM SSIII And now some pic:      |

Welcome! That's a great looking car you've got there. I wish I could help with the timing belt - my only thought or suggestion would be that perhaps it skipped a tooth or slipped since it looks like one of the edges of it is frayed.

Was it a genuine Toyota belt or did you go aftermarket [No I'm not gonna blame it all on brand - just curious]

How is it that you're able to manage to write to this guy in French but you can't for the life of you seem to be able to spell correctly in English, nor figure out how to enable your SPELL CHECK?!? Can you even pronounce his name correctly? Here - I got some french for you, D-Man. Gillette.

Its because he goes to free translation.com lol...... I used to do that for homework assignments in high school. It made no sense to the teacher because it was translated in basically caveman french.

Maybe he should type into that translator what he wants to say in English and it can translate it for him into English.
For that matter I can think of quite a few members who could use that service! LOL! Yes, very clean indeed. I think it looks great... it's like a beautiful blank canvas! Great foundation to start with. -------------------- |

I think so, for the tooth. You're right for edge frayed. Fragments winded round camshaft & crankshaft pulley, that why I changed the seals |

If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

is it true? i heard France didn't originally have 6th gen celicas, people just brought them in from Germany and Italy. I read this up from a french celica forum. I'm referring to left hand drive models only.
