First ones to be changed were the ECU cover, intake manifold plastics and coil pack bolts. These were blue anodised aluminium, and having discovered after breaking 1 on the Lexus, that the aluminium has a tendency to corrode to the engine bay metals, I copper greased all the thread on the bolts I changed.

I then changed the 2 bolts that hold the top of the bumper to blue anodised titanium...

And the ones just above the headlight that bolt through the fender were changed to stainless steel...

And here's a shot of the whole engine bay with everything changed...

03-08-2021, 09:53 AM #32Today while looking for something completely unrelated, I found all the left over aluminium/stainless steel/titanium bolts I took off my Lexus before I sold it. As the Celica has a lot less visible bolts I figured I had more than enough to do most of the main ones.
