News from the fields - logbook Toyota Altezza, 1999

So the holidays are over :))))
Having hastily gone on vacation, I did not have time to report on the conversion of antifreeze hoses to a radiator, which I plan to do now :)

The upper hose (return) in principle came up without fundamental changes, I just had to shorten it in length, because. the hole on the radiator was closer than on the donor car (Aristo JZS161).

But I had to tinker with the lower one, not only was the outlet pipe of a different length and configuration, it was also larger in diameter! But nothing, using ingenuity, a piece of stainless steel of adequate diameter, an electric saw with the poetic name Pilos and comrade Anton got a decent result :)

- the remains of the pipe were used as a gasket so that the main mutant pipe did not rub against the stabilizer:
