Need some help from the USA

[lowredcruzr]

whats going on guys, i'm looking for some help. i'm looking to do a winter project. I want to turn my car to right hand drive over here in the US but i need part numbers. I can order anything from the toyota dealership as long as i can get the part numbers. Or if your willing to help i will get you to send the stuff to me. First off i need pics of the engine bay out of a right hand drive celica. then if anyone has pics of the celica with the motor and tranny out so i can see the gas, brake and clutch pedle setup, and or the dash taken out that would be helpful. I'm serious about doing this. So any information would be great, thanks guys

Have you looked into importing a RHD model of the Celica? That might work out cheaper.

Just out of interest, why do you want to go Right Hand Drive?

My advice is to get hold of a Toyota EPC with Jap spec vehicle listings if you're after part numbers.
As Matty P suggested, it probably would be cheaper to import a RHD Celica (quite a lot floating around in Japan SS-I, SS-II, Sports M)
Would have brought in a Sports M myself but Australia has crappy import laws!
Don't know about US import regulations/duties/taxes but you can pick up a decent Sports M for a very reasonable price

BTW is yours a GT or a GT-S because in Australia all we get here are 2ZZ-ge equipped celica's

its a gt-s. with alot of custom work done already, and i'd hate to drop what i already have to start a new one. I cannot import a RHD i've looked into it. The car is a show car so i'm looking to do something different to it. I've got my own shop to do all the work in now all i need are the parts. I need all the gas, brake and clutch lines, RHD pedels, RHD dash, A/C condinsor box. basicly if you have an auto salvage yard any where that might have any of these parts i'd love to get my hands on them. But any help would be great. thanks again guys.

Hehehe
Unfortunately you won't find many wrecked ZZT231 Celica's here in Australia
The Celica isn't a high volume seller, I've only heard of 1 wrecked Celica somewhere over east
but that parts from that were pretty expensive

Have you considered a Japanese half cut ? (heard they were still quite expensive) but it should have all the parts you need to convert over... again quite hard to get a hold of

[lowredcruzr]

if i can get part numbers i can just order the stuff from toyota

If you can't get hold of a current EPC
then I would suggest going to this site http://www.oldmactoyota.com.au/
and use their online part enquiry form
From experience they are one of the only toyota dealerships online in Australia that I've emailed to and have actually replied back

hope that helps
