I was going to mention that the connectors may not be the same but I didn't feel like putting in the effort to confirm it.
You're sure it's a 5S under the hood right? Weird things happen....

I'm shocked a 7A ECU would run a 5S at all let alone well enough to drive.

Should be an M6 flange nut or an M6 with a captive washer, possibly an M8 but not as likely.

If you only barely need to clear then 5mm spacers or just trimming the little bit off the caliper that interferes would allow you to not need extended studs.

You can usually weld a nut to the broken bleeder and get it out, the heat shocks the threads and they'll turn right out most times. Usually not worth the hassle if a reman caliper is readily available...

Structural vehicle fabrication isn't to time to learn to weld. Structural vehicle fabrication is for when you've already learned to weld and have been doing so for a while. Sheet metal is so hard to w...

4th or 5th, I think you can stuff most of the 205 stuff on a 5th gen anyway?

And there's the problem of parts should something break that's not got a US equivalent, pay out the ear for parts + overnight shipping from Japan.

Registration, state inspection, emissions testing, etc. If they've got any kind of state vehicle inspection or testing it'll probably get caught eventually. I don't think the Canadian or non US comput...

Good point, he's going to nee GT mounts etc vs ST mounts etc. Vin swap is the simplest way to get a GT4 here NOW, but also the simplest way to get that car crushed when it's caught.

That's pretty much all the parts you need, except for cutting and welding the body to take the rear frame, I think there's some mounting holes and things back there the US model is missing. As someone...

That's not a bad idea, maybe you can size a bit of steel fuel line that'll take up the slack?

I never had that issue with my Celica, you can cut a tiny tiny little V into one of the bushings to let the air out I suppose or drill a hole on the arm and install a grease fitting so you can add sil...

The professional enamel I mentioned is pretty similar but not quite as nigh invulnerable. Engine paint is a good choice too since it's chemical resistant.
