been busy today with the wet+dry and satin black spray paint as the brakes were crusty and the alloys were worse.
planned to do the wheels gold but changed my mind. i love the black on black and a lot of my cars have had black wheels.
i cleaned the brakes down with a wire brush and blacked everything. cant stand to see rust behind nice wheels.
also got me a set of new jap import sized number plates (12x6") and fitted them today too.

its E56-070 and it cirtainly pulls like a train in all gears and no slower than the volvo T5 i owned before.
also feels and sounds like its got a VVTI kick. is this normal on a stock 3S-GE engine?

cheers for the comments mate and yours looks very nice too. i,ll be ordering the clear front and side indicators soon.
i,m already on CCUK and ive also already got familiar with the SSS having just replaced a figure8 on the o/s/f.
just looking into what i have and whats available for these cars. seems to have different suspension, brakes, clutch, to most.

not too scarey but i need to take care finding the right bits at ok prices wink.gif

in the UK we get the GT which is a 3S-GE but not SSS, 2-pots or LSD as standard. imports usually have this spec and are quite common here. dont you have many japanese imports? i,m guessing they are mainly the US models if you think mine is rare.


We get NO Jap imports. frown.gif


why? is it a legal thing? thumbsdown.gif

thanks mate.
is this spec quite rare in the states then as most of the JDM imports in the UK seem to have it fitted? thumbsup.gif


Not available at all here. We don't get the 3S-GE (nor 3rd gen 3S-GTE) either for that matter.

its all a bit dirty and scabby in this department at the moment but you get the idea.
only had it 2 weeks so i,ll be stripping it all soon to clean and re-paint the suspension and brakes satin black and rims gold.

hi all. i,m new here and new to japanese car ownership too. previously only had italians but now want reliabilty and no rust.

heres my new 94 celica. a 2002 JDM import with superstrut, 2-pot calipers and LSD (along side my nissan primera GT)
its standard apart from a universal cone filter and blocked off resonator box but i have a few plans when funds allow.
starting with clear front indicators, side repeaters, JDM red/clear rears, gold refurbed alloys and square number plates.
then maybe lowered springs and a custom cat-back stainless steel exhaust.

hope you like coz i,m loving it wink.gif
