Welcome back Steve. Was wondering what happened to you.

Hi Steve,

I have been compiling a list of all of the interchangeble parts and many parts do fit. But RVR/LRV is strange animal it is between 1G/Galants and 2G DSMs when it comes to design. It uses many 1G and 2G parts.

As for brakes, if you want an easy upgrade and do not mind going with larger wheels, I would suggest Galant VR4 front brakes, the rotors are 1" larger and calipers have dual pistons.

i will bear that in mind for a later date,as i recently put new tyres on,i got a spare 14 inch wheel and put those assisters in my rear springs which raised it 35mm,and ditched that stupid spare,extended my carrier so the bigger spare fits underneath with out a problem,one other thing was mine started to run bad,revs kept going up and down as if choke was cutting in and out,the cause was my distributer,so i took cap and rotor off and sprayed wd40 in behind the dust cover and now runs like a dream again,dont know if it was the hot weather or something was sticking in there,one to remember though,i went through some of my receipts for parts over here to compare with you guys, fuel filter £5.50 ,air filter £6.00 , front brake pads over here but made in turkey £6.75 .cam belt £8.00 rad cap £3.00 .these are all in english pounds,the fuel filter is same as toyota,like to hear back on your prices please,as i got brake pads in england they were £26.00
