I'm doing the same on my Carina wagon (SA60G).

I bought a SA60 Celica rack (I also bought the xmember just in case, not really an option for you I guess).


Know of any parts wagons?

Ahh. Crossmembers/steering rack (in fact complete front end) is common between xA14x coronas xA6x carina and celicas (not celica supra).

I used to think that the orange and green tictacs gave you special powers. The orange ones would make you stronger and the green ones would make you faster. So i used to eat some green ones and run around my lounge as fast as i could, then eat the orange ones and try to pick up the sofa. I wish it were true!

The crossmembers are the same for powersteer and non powersteerThe only difference is that the non power steer has an extra bracket bit that bolts between the crossmember and the rack to make up for the fact the non powersteer rack is thinner at one end.
