i bought a 1995 celica GT for £300:-) its very nice, bodywork bit knackered but engine...oh the engine...so smooth although its done 209,000 miles...
i'm trying to order a few bits but people keep asking what engine number is, its not on my stamp under the bonnet, any other way of telling?? and can you really tell the difference between the st and gt? it seems pretty fast, lovely when you get to about 70mph in 2nd gear with the revs at 7500 :-)

any help would be very grateful.. and can anyone point me to a good place to buy parts??

thanks biggrin.gif

I saw that too. Y0 Dawg, I heard you like clean air so we put an air filter on your air filter so you can clean while you clean.

That's a 3S-GE for sure. See the "2000 Twin Cam 16" on the intake manifold? 2 liter, Twin Cam, 16 valves. 3S-GE all the way, as if the 7k revving wasn't a dead giveaway.
