I wonder if a skilled locksmith can swap contents of a lock cylinder to another handle wing knob?
I have understood that a skilled lock smith can remake or replace contents of a worn out lock cylinder.

Re: Turbo 4age tercel
Wow! Again interesting mod work. This info may come handy to all who want to use 4A-FE as a start point for their engine builds.
Is 200mm flywheel possible to use also with Tercel 4wd? Or is it only suitable for your 1st gen Tercel gearbox?

Re: radiator
Wow!
Hopefully other spare part stores start selling these as well. I have now good plastic radiators but thats what I call an improvement.

Re: Going to the scrapyard, what should I take?
Previous writers have given already many good items to grab that I agree also. How similar and which model year is the wrecker car? There are two different transmission gear ratios in Tercels: 82-84 & 85-88. It means that you don't want to put 1983 gearbox to 1987 wagon with original 1987 rear d...

Looking good. What you are going to do with that one? Will it be a daily?

Re: My sr5 tercel build
Nice car! And I also like the blue plaid seats very much. Here in Europe our latest best equipped 1986-1988 4wd Tercels received black plaid seats similar to Japanese RV specials. I am lucky to have them in one of my cars.

Re: Should I buy parts for a 86` or 85` if i got a 87`?
AISIN CKT010 works fine in Euro Tercel. I have installed one kit into mine and that one works well. And for some reason every Euro Tercel is DLX. SR5 was never introduced in Europe but we still got a lot of SR5 parts like inclinometer and wide side moldings. Tacho cluster was also introduced in many...

Re: Differences concerning parts? Europe & USA
Hi Gabriel, Yes I am from Finland. Thanks. I have been as well several times to Sweden and it is a nice country too. In this case you can order parts without any problems from Rockauto. Tercel transmission is pretty much identical in all continents. Only thing to avoid is to order Automatic transmis...

Re: Differences concerning parts? Europe & USA
Hi RetroGrade, there are many differences between many markets but parts are still pretty interchangeable with minor mods. US and European Tercels have different wiring so electrical parts like instrument cluster may be a bit different. US Tercels have a lot of emission stuff and accesories that Eur...

Re: Double coil springs
Looks like "heavy duty" springs. I wonder if this Tercel has been used for goods transporting.
However there should be better ways for "heavy duty" suspension.

Re: 3A-U motor.
3A-U motors can have also different carbs & intake manifolds, which affect also engine power.
I have also discovered that European and American Tercels have different weights and springs in distributor. I wonder if distributor internals can affect also power.

Re: radiator
Thanks! Packaging indicates its made in China, but the the build quality on mine was good. I'm grateful someone is still making them. When I finished installing, I wiped the radiator lightly with a shop rag and the ink came off the warranty sticker... ingenious. No trouble with it so far tho. You a...

Re: 1987 Tercel 4wd project
Finally spring 2023 is arriving. I have been doing some minor jobs like installing a center console and front window trims. Today I finished repainting a 1987 US/Canada/Japan grille and of course I wanted to test it right away. So I attached some pictures of these jobs. My another 1987 project will...
