Hey I was wondering if anyone would know what is the difference between a st185 WRC Edition celica and the normal sx?!?! Oh and would anyone know where I could find a free user manual for my 1993 WRC Edition Celica?!?! All help is appreciated and thanks for your time

i didnt say that ..
but it is a stock one thats had some goodies thrown in - once again - as far as i know .
not 100% if yours is a wide body or not .. you can easily tell if you park next to an SX - the front and rear guards are a few inches bolder either side.
Still a nice car though ..

I'm not 100% sure but i thought the WRC edition was just a regular celica with bonus stuff (EG: air con at no extra cost) and COOL STICKERS!!!
Even though it's the same, i'm sure it would impress the girls more

the way u said no car out of japan?? it is from japan! and as for technical brilliance, did somebody say supra! i would take an evo 3-8 over a gtr! and a supra lol and a brand new ae86, ( there are about 4 in the world with under 200km on the clock!! and then spend the change!
quote from motor magazine "when the nissan straight 6 (rb26) is pinging, snapping rods and cracking heads, the toyota donk (2jz)is still going strong!" this was in the november issue im pretty sure 1999 if i remeber correctly!
gtr= great car tho!

Obviously what I meant is... no 'other' car out of Japan can match it, and I'm shocked you'd even try to compare a supra to it... you'd have better luck matching the zx series of cars mate... however if we are talking about rear wheel drive cars... the rx7 definitely stakes claim to that title... Honda's NSX is just another story altogether... The Evo's are and awesome bunch of cars but could never claim to be as furious as the GTR's... their big brother the GTO was heading in the right direction byt that become a bit too weighty and it's engine layout didn't make it the most tuneable... with all that aside I'll admit the supra has got some go in it and the shape is very nice. Final point though the GTR will always be the Group A Porsche conquering kings!
RobST162: Mate.... ever seen the castle? "Tell him, he's dreaming!" lol... GTR '07' mate... Godzilla will rise again...

From what I can remember on the ST184 WRC was that it was based on a basic SX, it came with a Spoiler, electric windows and mirros, AirCon, Sunroof (*I Think*), Mags like the GT4 and front foglights on the hatch. But can't remember anything else, oh... yeah, they were grey or a little lighter like Classique71's GT4 and white were the avalible colours...
It's similar specs I suppose to the ST204 Team Europe Edition in equipment level though the ST204 TE came in Red from memory...
Cheers.

No idea about different suspension but mine looks a whole lot higher than other celicas... and it doesn't have a sunroof... and it's this weird auqaish metalic colour... more leaning towards the green side rather than blue... I contacted Toyota Australia about getting information on it... but still waiting for their reply... thanks for that insight though ZZT231...
Oh... no one got a manual they want to scan for me hey Would be very much appreciated as being a second hand car... it didn't exactly come with any... Cheers!

I can't remember about the details coz I wanted one when I first saw them in 1993, but at the time I was still going through Primary Schoool  So I am not sure about the colour, but from what I could see, I only have seen white and grey ones... but the metallic colours are coming back to mind but can't remember what were avaliable.
I was looking to getting one but could not find one with a decent history or in decent condition (Classique71 knows how fussy I am)...
Cheers.

Well mine's got a genuine 98000kms on it... immaculate inside and out... minus some paint flakes... took me a while to get my hands on it... and it is a beautiful car... but then again... so is the brand new celica...

It's not mine, it's my dad, I personally own an MA61 and it's a work of art though I woundn't have minded to have the ST184 WRC or ST205 TE...
