Hey 6gc, this is my first post.
Love the site and the people on it, so I just had to finally get on this thing. I've been a member since I first started looking for my Celica, which is also my first car, as I always dreamed it would be. She's a 99 Celica GT hatchback with 40906 miles at the time of purchase. Silver with black leather interior, alloy wheels, 5 speed. Bone stock, one owner. The car has been sitting for the better part of 12 years. Since transporting her home, I've gotten a full 60k service and tune, and installed brand new JDM taillights. The only major flaws in the interior is a missing cover for the pocket under the CD player and some cracked leather on the shoulder of the driver's seat. Here she is:    .jpg) So, do I win some sort of record for this find?

You know I have been getting some vibration when braking hard from speeds above 80mph. Could that be it?
