Hi smile.gif

I recently found this forum, and have the impression of a great & helpfull community.

I have had my Celica for 2 years now, I have just ordered Raiser blocks and JDM tail lights from Vincent_Doggy (as far as i recall).

When i had to fill out my Car details. There was all kinds of types. I choose the GT for now, I will specify my Celica here and see which one it is.

1994 Celica GT
3SGE 175 hp / 190 Nm Engine
Super strut suspension.
I bought it used.

It had the OEM sideskirts. and also something on the front, i am not entirely sure about what they are for, But i was planning on painting them.

As said. Im planning on painting them silver.

there are only 2 types of factory suspension on the ole' Celi, superstrut suspension (SSS) or McPherson (unless you are counting sumat like a complete set of TRD coilies as a third set),

its the bit at the bottom of the strut which is the difference between the 2 types, the regular McPherson has a 1 normal wish bone where as the SSS has control arms that change the camber of the wheel during cornering, the one in the pic is SSS, the shockers and springs despite being different parts work the same way, the SSS is only on the front suspension
