Hey guys i know its been a while since i posted, my celica has been put on the back burnner because of my RX-8. i just got my new motor but i have alot left to buy for it to get it running and in the car. in case you didn't know i'm putting a 2jzgte into my RX-8. my finish goal is july but september at the latest
anyways, i just thought i would let you guys know that i work for toyota now, i have been there over a month, and i love it.
i get a pretty good discount on parts, my price varies from 10% to 20% abover cost depending on the part.
and i can get any usdm part number you want. if you need something let me know by posting here, but here are a few guidlines:
1 - if your very far from the southeast don't bother especially on larger parts just because shipping will cancle out any $ you do save. i'm located in MS so you are welcome to come pick it up
2 - please do not bombard me with questions, i may not be able to respond daily either, but i will check back as often as i can
3 - if you want save time, be as specific as possible, if you can got toyota and find the parts you need and get me a part number
thanks guys and i do want to help out any one i can.
but if this blows up, i will have to charge a little to justify my time invested
and please don't ask for a price on something if you don't intend to buy
i can also get anything out of a repair manual, if you need to know how to do something complicated i can get you instuctions for almost anything on toyota lexus and scion
i am still trying to figure out how i can save it in a common used file type and email it
all the repair manuals are online now, we rarely use the actual books anymore

not celica related but if you find a way to be able to send manuals via email, could i get a service e-manual for an 89 toyota pickup 4x4 with the v6 motor?
if not that's fine. PM me if you can
thanks

The newest EPC actually has two parts to it. Theres an install CD but then you need to get a USB device from Toyota that authorizes one computer to access the EPC, so you need one device for each computer. The guy in the parts dept gave me the CD (I think it's in Manny's garage somewhere) in case I can figure out a way to bypass the USB device.

Upload an iso of the CD and I'll see if I can't crack the dongle requirements in the program.

an iso of the cd and
we need to crack the usb, maybe an iso, of a duplicate. all you need is to have a usb with the same stuff, it could be just act like a key.

the parts manager at my dealership said he has everything but it would only last for 60-90 days, thats how often they get an update and the old one is no good with out the update
i'm still working on the exhaust valve guide

Yeah that's what the dongle is, a usb key. If you can hack the program to bypass the check for the dongle it'll probably work fine.
The time limit restraints can also be cracked.

if you think you can do it I'll see if I can find the CD at Manny's house and upload it for you
