hey guys im new to this site and i was wondering if i could get some advice
a couple months i got a 95 ST celica as a first car. ive fixed most of the minor bugs on it since then but im still having a hard time finding some parts. I need more importantly headlight assembly for the high beam driver side and if possible all four headlights, if anyone can help that'd be great. but after that if kinda lost on what else to do any ideas? thanks and btw I live in Vancouver,Canada |

what do you mean youre lost?
you mean upgrades? -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here...

First off, welcome! And as for lost, it really depends on the direction you'd like to go with your car. Spend some time cruising around the site to get an idea of what our cars can be. That helped me out with the direction I'm going in now. And man, there was a FS post of a guy selling all 4 headlights for cheap but they JUST got sold

ok thanks, and by lost i mean that i dont know in what direction really to go ( upgrade wise )
Im not the richest guy so lil things to upgrade would be good. and as for looking for headlights i've looked on ebay but most of all of them are for GT's because of the different body's they dont fit my ST. thanks for the help. |

if the lights are fron a 1994-1999 celica they will fit. all lights are the same whether its an ST, GT, SSx, or GT-FOUR

Just like everyone has said the headlights are all the same (highs and lows)
But.. the tail lights are different between Coupe/Convertible and Hatchback This post has been edited by jcbass7: Oct 25, 2010 - 11:51 AM |

If you're looking to upgrade after you get the headlights, definitely start with the suspension such as ST (suspension technique) sway bars and end links. You could do a full coilover setup, but that costs a pretty penny. Just the sway bars and end links will add some stiffness and better handling to the car. As for power, you're not going to get much out of the 7A, but you can upgrade the intake and headers on it to get a few hp about 5-10. That's the cheaper route you can go if you don't have much money (like me lol)
Good luck with whatever you're going to do with it though! and post some pictures up! |
