My first project, New parts Arrive! Options

[Bourne6Gen]

I am new to this forum and i am also new to the jap scene.

I got hold of this little beauty about 2 months ago from a good mate of mine for £450 and have finally understood why people say "Once you go Jap, you never go back".

It was completly standard when i bought it apart from the wheel that are on it.

Current specs are;

Engine: 1.8L 16V
Mileage: 145'000 miles
Current mods: some tiny wheels that dont look right on it.

so here is a picture of when i first got her


not long after getting it i had to add some audio


my mate also had a exhaust that he bought for the celica but never fitted it so he sold it to me for a good price

Exhaust could do with a clean


i have got some plans for her, just got to fugure out how i go about it.

Plans for the future

sort out the interior
- new seats
- new dashboard gauges
- redo the roof line and door panels
- it some pillar pods
- new steering wheel

Exterior
- GT4 bonnet and front bumper
- new wheels
- lower
- fit spoiler
- vinyl wrap roof and bonnet
- change headlights
- change back bumper

well that's what i have planned for now let see how it actually turns out.

let me know what you all think.

Now you actually have an ST202! Haha

I know, well when i stated i had a ST202 on here at first and you told me i didnt have one, i had to go out and buy one lol

It looks like your radiator cap is leaking and your missing the cruise control mechanism (idk what's called), but nice find. From the pictures it doesn't look like the paint is too bad at all.

The paint looks worse close up but saying that its not that bad few scratches and dents here and there but nothing to bad. i going to get it resprayed in the summer as there is not point of doing it now in winter.

you say the radiator is leaking would you recommend that i replace the radiator as soon as possible, also does it matter it is missing the cruise control thing or should i get another one of those? (not that i even know what it looks like or where it goes lol) but thanks for the advise would have never have spotted that.

nice trade. hahha now both you and your friend can enjoy the 6gc. Get him on here too.

and yeah that radiator's gotta go right now.

Thanks mate, im glad he has a celica now because before there was no one round here that owns one (or at least mods it) He is on here but hasnt posted yet but will get him to comment on here and you can follow him.
