Importing Parts

[Escy]

I've got a 92 Toyota Corolla Levin which has Superstrut suspension fitted. I've got a shagged wheel bearing, when getting the car apart to fix this, everything has gone wrong. The top ball joint has gone, the tie rod end has gone, snapped the ABS sensor and the garage say the front hub is damaged (think they've done this).

Gone to Toyota and the prices are as follows...

Ball joint upper - 57

Tie rod end - 50

Hub front axle - 81

Tcend19b bearings - 86

seal kit, axle - 36

With the vat thats £362, plus it's an easy £100 extra for a ABS sensor.

Are there any Japanese sites that are in English which I can order from, or any British websites/companys that stock/can get hold of import parts? Basically, does anyone have any ideas other than going through Toyota?

I can't afford that sort of money when the car only cost £750 anyway.

I don't really want to have to break if for the sake of a wheel bearing.

Also, anyone breaking a Levin? Or can I use a ABS sensor and hub from a standard Corolla?

Think your gonna have to bend over and take it im afraid, your not going to get much cheaper than those prices :(

If i can't get cheaper than that, i'll be breaking it.
