Thought I´d share my Celica build with you guys.

Okay the car is 1994 GT-four WRC.
Bought it 4 months ago, and now it has these following improvements:

-HKS EVC boostcontroller
-HKS airfilter
-3" SS Catback-exhaust
-Apexi turbotimer

-Tein S-techs
-Whiteline rear anti-rollbar
-16" Oz Superleggera rims

and then the pics...












--------------------
320hp @ 6300rpm and 420Nm @ 3250rpm. yay!

No use having plenty of tread left on your tyres if your cars upside down in a ditch,pick the ones that are going to keep you on the road the best, it maybe they wear out quicker but that's usually because there giving you better traction, 300 bhp & bad tyre choice is only gonna cause problems ive done it myself mate,when I bought my car it had brand new Federals on it,they were lethal so I binned them with 6mm tread,next I had Falkens they were ok but could let go a bit suddenly which wasn't ideal,I did keep them till they wore out tho,next I had Toyo T1s which I loved such an improvement,honestly made the car feel so much better & at the moment I've got Toyo T1r on, definately the best mid range price tyre I've had, wear rate probably isn't the best tho but that's a price I'm willing to pay for the grip.
If you've got time try & get as many opinions as you can before buying as tyre choice really affects the driving of a 4.
