    Heavy duty clutch recommendations.

    Well, didn't think I would be needing one of these before fitting a G turbo/wink. Couple of days ago floored it going up a steep hill in fourth, hit the sweet spot, turbo whistled and the boost gauge shot up to 15 psi. As did the tacho.. Slipped on a couple of occasions now, so turned down...

    When did toyota stop thinking this was a good idea?

    Had a customer's 80 all this week getting some jobs done. For the first time I noticed this; My 96 doesn't have the switch illumination, nor the illuminated halo around the ignition which I keep meaning to retro fit.. Think I'll be fitting a set of these too.

    Something 80 owners should check.
