Hi Guys,
This is my first post. I bought this Celica from a one owner old lady in December last year, just as a A to B car. But then I couldnt resist modding it a little. First came the Raiser Blocks, then the 18 inch rims, then the 2" lowering job, and finally the GT4 Bonnet (still need to get it painted). I wanna get the GT4 front bumper so it lines up with the bonnet, but does anyone know if it will bolt straight on ? Sorry for the poor quality pics, its my phone camera. Please let me know what you think. Sorry, can someone let me know how to attach pictures to the thread, in the meantime, have a look at my car in my profile pics -------------------- 2 X ST165 GT4's

Rims are a bit big for my taste, but nice 6GC.
I know your crash bar has to be modified for the GT-4 bumper to fit, but I don't know the details. This post has been edited by SwissFerdi: Sep 1, 2009 - 11:45 PM -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

Yeah I dont mind the look of the big rims, but the rough ride go too much the other day when I hit a pot hole and cracked one rim. I realised that 35 profile are way to thin. I've now just put the stockies back on. But i'm looking for the 16" 5 spoke rims off the later model RZ Celica.
I think they will still look decent, while also giving me a comfortable ride. -------------------- 2 X ST165 GT4's

The car looks pretty good. Definitely has a lot of potential.
OT: Is that Subaru behind your car a 22B STi? Either way it's a real beaut. Love it. -------------------- Has no more Celicas

Yeah that car behind me is not a 22B, but it is a 2 door STi. Its a monster. 2.2L stroker, big money spent on that thing. It makes around 250kw at all four wheels.
