Hi everyone,
I'm a recent (but very happy) 1994 SS-II owner from Canada but currently living in Kumamoto prefecture in southern Japan. I used to drive one of those tiny K-cars but last summer I decided that it was time for me to get a real car. I wanted to get myself an integra or an mr-2 at first but when I stumbled upon that celica here I knew she had to be mine. I've been happily driving it to work and on some crazy expeditions on Japan's winding mountain roads ever since. I don't really know much about mechanics, tuning and such (yet) but every time I get in my car I can hear her whispering "make me beautiful, make me powerful", so eventually I'd like to learn and try some myself one day. I don't really have serious money to spend on tuning and upgrades just yet. Nor do I have a place to work on the car and store parts (living in a small country town in a japanese-sized apartment will do that)... but hopefully that'll change one day!
Anyway, just wanted to say hi to everyone!

OMG. I love the look of that road.

Can't wait for the next pics wink.gif

Your car looks nice and clean BTW.

Also I run 95 in my 3s. My sister filled it up 91 frown.gif when she borrowed it and I have noticed that the fuel economy is less and the response is not as good. I didn't find out she put 91 in until after I got the car back and drove it for a couple of days. I cant complain tho she filled it up for me smile.gif.
