So i've been looking for a new car for quite a while to replace my ssII celica, was looking at a few N/A supra's a Silvia s14 facelift and countless MR2 turbos
All of these cars where great fun to drive but for one reason or another it never ended up happening my mate linked me a Celica gt4 on trademe a week ago and was like for ****s and giggles go look at it so i went looked at it and instantly feel head over heels in love with it. Its everything a celica 6th gen should be, extremely responsive, handle like a dream and the brakes, dont even go there  the gt four is in complelty stock condition even has the stock 6 spokes, other than a BOV ( stock one died on previous owner) a alarm and a turbo timer. run stock boost its whole life and has a stock exhuast that has just been refurbed up with a stainless tip ( not loud) so right now i have two 1996 toyota celica's in white ( although the gt4 seems to be a bit more cream) Here are a few pics, because who doesn't love pics

Looking at the two, the GT4 looks like the older, more mature brother to it's teenage rebel bro on the right haha.

Yea, i am so stoked. For a 17 year old its a pretty sweet ride
, and yea my other 6th gen looks like the rebel in the family.After driving the SSII i thought that thing was fast, but the gt four is something completely different. its a animal and hauls some serious arse. First mods will be rear diff mount. get that all fixed up. then most likely a free flow exhaust (downpipe and all that jazz) then the cool hks mushroom filter. After than a pilliar pod with a boost gauge, oil pressure and volt meter and a boos tap and run 14psi
