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.

The header you bought is for a 3S block regardless, so my advice is to use a burr drill bit like this:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1pc-Head-Tungste...=item5d520b1d3f Basically all you need to do is widen the mounting holes a little so they will line up with the bolts. I had to do that with mine because of it being a generic corolla header for the 7A, gotta love generic aftermarket parts. Of course your motor like mine is the FE or economy model motor, not saying that should stop you from anything but do your research on engine parts and upgrades before committing to them. There are members on here like Tigawoods and hurley97 who have taken FE models and made them more of a sports engine. Keep the progress coming
