I was thinking it was time to do the timing belt on the Celica. I don't have the funds to get someone else to do it so I was planning to do it myself. I seems to be a fairly simple job, I just have to make double shore that everything is lined up with top dead center. Also I was planning to put a Mitsubishi Pajaro Master Cylinder on. It bolts straight on to the original Ta22 Booster, no modifications. It increases the main bore to 15/16. With my Cruiser brakes it should Help with pedal feel.

should very straight forward, especially with so much room between motor and rad support.
I had to do a similar thing with the brakes in the ma61 as it had bigger calipers all round but standard master cyl, pedal was always spongy. I put a landcruiser MC on to improve pedal feel.

Yes, I was told that a Landcruiser MC would bolt on, so when I got the Landcruiser brakes, i got the MC with the booster too. But found out that it doesn't so I have a Booster and MC that I don't need if someone wants to buy it.

I did my timing belt yesterday, it wasn't that hard I bought a kit which had the belt, tensioner pulley, and the cam seals. $120 not bad value i though. I didn't do the cam seals because The ones in there look to be fine, I pulled the bumper, grille, and radiator out so i could get to everything better. The pulleys were a bit tricky to get off, but other than that it was straight forward. I lined everything up with top dead center loosened the tensioner pulley, swapped everything over replaced the tensioner pulley, put everything back together. very easy. the car started first pop.

She almost ready to go up to the Ross show. I still need to do the rear seal in the Gearbox, and the T junction in the brake lines on the diff need replacing too. both are leaking, the brake fluid is pealing the paint off the diff
