hey guys,
its been a while since ive posted anything so i though i should post my pride and glory...my 184 celica 
ive had her for about 2 years now and like most celicas shes been faily good to me 
i paid $3200 for her from a dealership, she had no rego, a nice crease down the whole right side, dead paint on the roof, bonnet and the top of the guards and spoiler, she had a 3s not a 5s, 2nd gear would crunch in high revs, the windows were tinted way too dark and it had a sports exaust with a massive hole in the back of it
it sat at my dads place for a few weeks while i tryed to get my licence and he and i fixed it up so to get it regestered
this is a few weeks after i got my licence and was racing around in the forest near my girfriends dads place
here is a few when i got my Group A Bonnet and before some woman stopped for no reason and i hitt her!! 
and here is the damage she did 
dont look much ATM but she totaly smashed and mangled my left headlight so its already been replaced but she bent the bumper supports, wrecked the lip and warped my bumper
and finaly here is my my Grp A Halfcut when i got it, its all in pieces now
all i need now is a new gearbox, a clutch, im getting my turbo rebuilt and refreshed soon and im getting the buckles taken outta it and im gettin a new lip and a Grp A front bar from a "secret location" lol
enjoy

yeah man leaving it W2A for now , might upgrade if i keep the car
and yeah im told that the 3s-fe,3s-ge and 5s-fe will fit fine, and the V6 box is just a stronger version of the 5s/3s-fe one
and i would go the MR2 LSD box but it needs to by modifyed to be installed and also i dont have a spare $900 odd for the box itsself
im gunna restore the engine soon also, go the whole red white and black style and make it look crash hot so i will keep it updated
