Seems like a more knowledgable place than CCUK for the Gen6 anyway!
Any idea how i can carry on with the rest of my life without constantly thinking about the celica on the drive lol. Thats why im still up at 1:30am... Only real thing i wanted to ask was how to adjust the handbrake as you have to pull it up quite far to get it to stop the car. Not a major issue but i sometimes park it on a slope and couldnt live with myself if it rolled away! Or would you think its maybe worth replacing the cable?

I forgot about that as i never park on a slope..... Yeah, it seems to engage, then you let go and then you can move it up a bit more. I got new handbrake shoes last year, and it started doing that.... i think it just needs tweaking, i just got used to it, but it should be an easy fix. Sorry, i never thought about it while you were there...... There is a way to adjust the handbrake, i'll look for it tomorrow mate (pissed now)

QUOTE (95st-celica @ Jan 10, 2009 - 2:04 PM) i think it should be mandatory for mods to own 6gc's i think that theory pretty much goes out the window when the OWNER of this site no longer owns a celica. get over it.

No problem mate but if you do have any info would be great! Its not a problem really as it does hold when you pull it all the way but thought maybe a simple adjustment would sort it...anything i can do to tinker lol! All the hard work and graft has been done

That's the guy 4 posts up Daniel ^^^ Tom88!Tom, i think the Chilton book i left in the boot will have instructions for adjusting the handbrake cable........ I think you have to get the armrest box thing off where i left all my CD's! Were they all burned discs, or did i leave any originals? -------------------- |
