6G Celicas Forums

hi guys.

new to the site here!!!
glad i found it too!!

Im buying a gen 6 off my mate in the next few weeks so i wanna get ahead of the game.
ive only one pic of the car atm...


it needs a cood clean inisde and out!

really looking forward to modding it.

plans are to lower
new alloys
colour code interior.

Ooohh, SS-III, you lucky bastard. How come it doesn't have the riser blocks though?

Welcome matey You'll find everything you need to know here!


It aint an SS-III btw

yeah im not sure which model it is at all!!
sorry!!!
all i know is that is a 2 litre.

I kind of thought so. I'm gonna say SS-II.

thanks for clearing that up

Actually, it could also be an SS-I. The SS-I has a 3S-FE which is an economy engine, while the SS-II has a 3S-GE, which is more performance-oriented.

yep.

and with new wheels and springs, it will look a million dollars

I'd recommend SPAX springs. Nice 40mm drop, and as long as the shocks are in decent shape, they should handle it fine


This is the SS-II engine: (probably minus the induction kit)


That's the one you want 178BHP

ill find out on sunday i hope.!!!
all will be cleared up then!!!

what are they like to drive??

Pretty good Nicely planted, better lowered, improved with a rear strut brace. If that is the engine you have, most of the power is at the top end, so you have to rev it to get the most out of it....

But most of all it's just a beautiful car to look at.

i know.
their really starting to grow on me!!
cant wait to get mine

Way to get ahead of the game, as they say, knowing is half the battle! You're gonna LOVE your new car!

Welcome to the site!

thanks for all the kind words guys and girls!!!

best colour code for silver??
would the interior look bad in white??
not white seats or anything

Yep, it would look bad in white.

Check the sticky at the top of the exterior styling section for paint codes....

Don't forget, pretty much every question you have will have been answered here, so quicker to use the search, than to wait for an answer

199,
Yep, it sure will!
Thank god.

yeah ive just been reading bits here and there.
i just want some peoples opinions too

Yes John, welcome to the site. Very friendly bunch of people around here.

Sign up to celicaireland as well, just had a rolling road day in Armagh there last week. Plenty of Leinster members too.

Good luck

Hey welcome, yeah, we cant tell much from that pic about the model it could be either SS-I or SS-II. I didn't know when I bought my 1st Celica and always wondered why the 1st Celica I bought wasnt the fastest out of all the Celicas I test drove (it didnt matter to me at the time) until I realised theres more to the Toyota Celica than it just being a 2.0L engined sports car.

bit of bad news.
was talking to my mate today and he said the cat is gone in the celica too!!!
what kind of price for a new one????

You'll get one in a breakers handy enough. Shouldn't be too dear.

Avoid japarts and a chap called Barry.
