    Default Car parts

    Hi,

    I live on the other side of the world down in New Zealand and I need some car parts and wondered if there was anyone on here that might be able to help me?

    I am particularly interested in Toyota Levin/Trueno Te27 parts. I need a pedal box and some other parts.

    If anyone could help I'd be very thankful even if it is just to connect me with someone who I can get them from.

    Thanks

    Toyota Levin? Seriously? Nobody drives those here anymore. May I suggest you do what you can with duct tape?

    AE86s? The famous Hachiroku? You must be joking.
    They are one of the drifters' favourites, with a whole lot of parts available, like here...

    Most of the sites are Japanese only, just search AE86 Te27 パーツ.

    LOL and I can't drive mine because I don't have a pedal box.

    P.s. I tried duck tape!

    car parts (like most things) tend to be cheaper outside japan..


    If you cant get original you could buy an aftermarket pedalbox kit such as these from online supplier such as deamon tweeks (whoi ship internationally), that can be fitted into any car:-

    You sure you're having trouble finding parts for an AE86? That's a drifters favorite toy. Well anyway, have you tried autopartswarehouse they've got automoblie parts for cars way older than the 86.

    Hope this helps
