Hello Celica lovers,

I am proud to say I have just purchased my first celica. I bought it off my father. It has been in my family since my cousin brought it home from Japan in 1995 NEW so it holds a large amount of sentimental value.

Its a 1995 ST202 JAP import 3SFE.

It has seen better days as my dad didnt really take care of it but I love it so I am going to do the best I can to restore it.

I know its not the best celica and certainly not the most powerful (being a 3SFE) but its more than a car to me and I want to get the best performance out of it as possible.

I will post up pics as soon as possible. I havent done anything to it yet and I have some ideas but any advice you pro's have I am all ears and hope one day I will be a celica enthusist too.

by the way about saying how much you liked the 3sge beams. here on the bottom is the link where you can buy that engine, you also need maf sensor where you can find it on ebay or rpmgarage.com . Ya its more expensive than the 3sgte. but either you go turbo or n/a you choose. If you go turbo you just have to take care of your car a little more.
