Hey there,
As im sure your all well aware, If you got a car other than a AE86 it can be a total bitch trying to find aftermarket bits for other retro Toyota's.
Things like poly bushes, adjustable arms, camber plates, strut braces, Rack spacers (i could go on) Can get very costly if bought from a u.k manufacturer.
Your other option of course is ordering from abroad, but if you dont know about import costs or cannot read japanese it can get mega complicated
I just wanted to run a poll to see if members would like to purchase direct from the forum.
I have approached the u.s. main supplier of Energy suspension Hyperflex bushes about becoming a u.k distributor. see link.

Other parts will be available, and custom parts can be manufactured with the help of my friend mark who runs His fabrication company F.I.W.S.
It's early days for the forum, but this is the direction i want to go with supporting Drivers of Retro toyota's.
To those guys in the U.S.A and other countries, If your interested in any european parts please post your requirements / wish lists and i'll see if i can source parts for you. No payments up front needed, Just bear in mind i don't want to be left holding the baby
so only ask if you have a means of payment
