So I finally got my celica! :) Thu, 01 April 2004 10:45 Go to next message
Finally got my celica from Birkdale! Smile Awesome to drive I think, anyway im keen to post some pics see if you guys like it Smile

ill post the webspace directory because their pic's arnt too 56k friendly Smile

http://www.mypage.tsn.cc/joshske/joshcar/

im on the northern side of brisbane, at north lakes actually, if you see me around give me a toot or something Razz

Havnt got too many mods on it at the moment because ive just bought the car about 3 days ago Smile

Just got a 2 1/4 inch exhaust (have to get the tip put back on because the couple I bought it off thought it was *too loud*)

Cold air induction, 16" wheels, lowered springs, and thats it !

Some opinions on what mods I should get would be helpfull too Smile

stereo goes in _hopefully_ next week some time, still getting quotes Smile

Birkdale aye....the local tryhard kids call it "thugdale" :s

nice shiney car though Smile As for mods...not too sure really, no offence but they seem more a cosmetic car than a performance car...i'd say the breathing mods you've got would be a huge improvement over stock.
i cant remember what these came with, was it the 3s-fe or ge?try search the forums for ST182 and seeing what comes up...
the only thing i can really think of is a BEAMS 3s-ge Evil or Very Mad

what kind of stereo you looking at?

the 184 came with the 5SFE ~2.2L narrow cams 100Kw on 91octane fuel~
the 183 ~GT4'S~ came with 3SGTE ~2.0L turbo Kw for this engine varies too much for me to remember off the top of my head i have a 184 and my friend has a 162 so i know them~
the 162 came with the 3SGE ~2.0L non-turbo, 103Kw on 95octane fuel~

ahh ok
well the GT4's each came with a different series 3s-gte
ST165's had first gen
ST185's had the second gen
and ST205's had the third

within these they also varied slightly i think(group a shit...)

ummm i don't want to sound cocky here but the 1990-1996 model celicas in the FWD models came with the 5SFE they are the 2.2L, and the GT4 came with the 3SGTE ~T refers to the turbo~ your normal 3SGE will have 2000 16v written on the rocker head, and the 5SFE will have 2200 16V on the rocker head, just check to see what yours has. if it does say 2000 then the car would have had an engine swap done.
