Toyota are the Ausie Daihatsu genuine parts supplier for those not in the know.
Daihatsu is owned by Toyota (Toyota had to get their technology somewhere )
Charades were sold by Toyota as the Echo, Daihatsu Scat as Toyota Blizzard, Toyota Dyna/Daihatsu Delta were parrallel manufactured with small differences & shared Daihatsu/ Toyota engines...Hope I have not confused too much.

So many delays to getting my MB back in order with 993cc & 5 speed transaxle... neighbor issue gone, donor shell up on rotisserie, new sheds on the way.... another project also..
Ok, thanks for the history lesson (learnt a couple of bits), but doesn't really explain why the parts were found in NZ and not say, Penrith Toyota... I understand just like the Mighty Boy's due to there being a somewhat limited production run in numbers that manufacturers are not obliged to keep spares forever. It just would seem that this particular series of engines are notorously hard to find spares for. Just wanting to know from someone who has the experience/pain in having to do so.

The answer is that the G11 (CB61) was the only turbo Charade sold domestically in Australia. This is why Toyota do not carry spares for the CB71/80/81/90. These models weren't big sellers in Japan either because they're outside of Kei regulations, hence why parts are a bitch to find. Funny that I used to think F6A parts were hard and expensive to find, but with so many importers and their massive popularity in Japan they're actually pretty easy to source parts for!zeek73 wrote:but doesn't really explain why the parts were found in NZ and not say, Penrith Toyota...

Don't say they can help but I have used them before & found them to be good to deal with http://www.daihatsuauto.com.au

If you didn't smash 100hp I'd be surprised. My F8B chalked 60 on an emissions tune.
