I can't decide if I should stick with the actual wheels (15") and refurbish them, or change them for bigger ones.... Any ideas? P.S. I love my car!!!!!!!! |

After reading one of the sticky threads I decided to go for Bosch super-4 plugs. The thing is I cannot find them for Celica 3sge, only for mr2 3sge. But am I stupid or it is the same engine and it means they will fit? These are the ones: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TOYOTA-MR2-Coupe...=item232a2d152c |

Hi guys! I have a very small misfire and I plan to change the plugs and the distributor cap. Any suggestions? What plugs should I go for? Any specific distributor cap? Also even if there are 20 degrees C outside the car still revs pretty high 1600-1700rpm when I start it with a cold engine. is that normal? thanks! |

Awesome! Do we get a night pic of the new dials? And how do you feel about the new poly-bushes? Where did you bought the polibushes? I found a kit on Ebay from UK and they are at reasonable price... Ebay 22£ for the rear ones |

I will post a night pic but first I need to find a way to increase the light. After applying the white stickers there isn't too much light coming through . I need to find a way to fix that. The polybushes feel totally different. The suspensions feels a bit stiffer. I will change the ones on the front too soon. Actually I plan to change all the bushes with polybushes. |

Why respray it? Is it a factody color? Anyway it look good it's a nice color! What about a TRD spats or an SS-III kit? Yes, it's a factory color. If I will respray it, it will be the same colour. The paint is not in very good condition, although I know it looks ok in the pic. I have the spats or the SSIII kit on my list. I had a look on ebay but they seem a bit hard to find. |

Welcome here! Post some pics! Do you have any plans after you fixed that things? Thanks! Yes the plans are as it follows: 1. change all the bushes to polybushes 2. change the coilovers 3. new alloys(or refurbish the actual ones) 4. new exhaust 5. I will love to respray it but it is sooooo expensive |

Thanks Box! I am not worried about the leak but I would like to sort it out. Now I need to change the droplinks and the ARB bushes asap because the clunking noise is driving me mad . I have to cut the droplinks with a grinder as they are rusted and stuck. When I tried to remove them I rounded the bolts |

Yes, as it says in the title..finally a Celica. About 3 weeks ago I purchased a 1998 2.0 GT with 130.000 miles and in a pretty good condition overall. Both the interior and exterior are in very good condition and mechanically the car has 2 faults: 1. clunking noise on the rear end. That's because of the droplinks and ARB bushes. I tried to change them yesterday but one of the droplinks is stuck so I have to go to a garage to change them. 2. I noticed a very small oil leak. After not moving the car for more than a day I found a spot(less than a square inch) under it. At the last mot the car had as an advisory one oil leak but the owner told me it was the sump seal and he changed it. I don't really know what to think about that . Other than that....I LOVE the car and is something that I always wanted. |
