6G Celicas Forums

First of all i own a 7th gen and im a member on newcelica.org
Im looking into buying a 6th gen so im wondering what i should be looking out for.
any suggestions and advices? thanks

a gt-4 lmao

x2... ^ if i can find one

Depends on what you want. GT is perfect fotr a 3sgte swap, no need in moving tranny mounts or anything. ST you need to move a mount or so. If you need a DD both are good cars the ST and GT. What exactly do you want ? What are your goals ext ?

im looking for a dd for school but later down the road id want to do that 3sgte swap

hmm well it all depends on what you plan on doing... if you want to swap an OBDI gt is the way to go in most cases...

the post facelift bumper (96+) is a favorite, but so is the 95- two post hatches. coupes are rare!

you will spend more time and money looking for aftermarket parts for a 6gc compared to a 7gc. both a great cars. search the site. you will find a lot of inspiration.

Id say pick up a GT lower it and put rims on it then. And save and buy a clip for that potent 3s, welcome to 6gc, you'll find lots of into on here and lots of friendlies. and theres only a few sites where you can get aftermarket parts for the 6th gen kinda sucks, the 7th gen has 10x more. and again welcome.

thanks for the info, i guess what im looking for is there any problems i should look for?
for ex. the 7th gen 00-02 1zzfe has oil consumption problems... sorry for being a total newb



thanks.. its hard enough finding parts for the 7th gen lol

There really isnt any major problems with the 6th gen, try to find one with no rust, and with decent miles. Whats your price range and where do you live. I'll look around for you.

looking to spend around 5g's
im from mn so its hard finding one with little rust lol

5K, man you can prob get a swapped one that for sale on here for that seriously check the FS section, theres a couple of nice swapped and non swapped celi's for sale.

the biggest problem with the 6gc is lack of power in the usdm! good reliable cars though... they hold very pretty well!

lol talk about power right. the 1zz is slow enough
ill check the for sale section but im trying to get something local

do you happen to drive a silver "GT" 7th gen celica?

lol yea the most common 7th gen celica

yeah, and you're the same guy that rolls around BC right?
