Hey to all! biggrin.gif I jus bought my first Celica last week, its a White GT (2.0 Litre Engine... 174bhp) its a beast tongue.gif .. I'm really pleased but I've been reading up on parts for better performance and I've got a few questions...

1. What are the benefits of a TRD : Low Temperature Sports Thermostat?

2. I'm going to get some sort of air filter... I was thinking HKS... but whats better, an open air (cone shape) or and drop in filter (same shape as the stock to fit in the air box)?

3. Has anyone got any advice ideas or things I should know about or just cool things I can do to my celica?

I'll be adding pics soon!!

Any help at all is greatly appreciated!

BTW the Euro GT was 173BHP (up until 1996) and the Jap Import was 178BHP.
