Hello there friends. smile.gif So i was idle at home and thought of doing a write up of my celica here in Fiji.I'm a 18 year old university student and was gifted with the celica on my 17th birthday.It's a 1994 model ST202-BLPVF.Standard with a 3rd gen 3S-GE motor.I bought it dead stock(2009) from the previous owner and the car had done just 65XXX as it the owner had a company transport so it was sort of a weekend car for him.I fancy having it as a daily driver to uni now biggrin.gif Here are pics of when i went to see the car:







Then came time for it get a new paint job a few weeks after i bought it(also had to change one of the high beams coz it had a hole in it and a low beam too that had broken brackets):




This was all that had been done to the celi till the last year of high school(2009) when i seeked help on this site(Thanks Rusty for the information)on changing the timing belt.Also got in some mild TODA race cams during the process that my brother brought from some place:





The first exterior mod i got was a pair of JDM tails and the interior mods were that of a pair of 6.5' ministry of sound door speakers,a Kenwood head unit.V12 1400 watts amplifier and 2x 10' Bomber woofers:





Then came the Fujitsubo Giken exhaust with a full 2.5' pipe conversion from front to back with a single 2.5' resonator(later added a 2 inch resonator too to save on fuel and to reduce ricer noise kindasad.gif )





Got the rear suspension changed(was too stiff) with OEM ones,changed front stabilizer links and the had brakes serviced:





With the mechanical and suspension taken care of,time for some more exterior and interior mods biggrin.gif :







I had a cousin do some leather into the interior seats and door panel too biggrin.gif :





The 2.0' resonator to kill sound,improve low end torque and save on fuel:




The car as it is today with all the information i gathered from this site.Believe me people this is celica heaven,filled with a whole lot of information.Thanks a lot buddies,all this would not have been possible without your input.I'm looking forward to a V6 turbo(3VZ-FTE probably)swap in the future.Input on it will be highly appreciated =].For now,here's pics i took yesterday,Enjoy smile.gif :

I'm liking that interior. That shifter cover is something I've never seen before though.. it's weird to me lol. At least it's an auto and doesn't get in the way too much.
