Hi
Can anyone tell me the difference between a Celica and a Curren, I own a Curren and I am trying to get parts for it, I have been told that if I stick to ST202 parts I’ll be fine. I am also looking to replace the stock seats any suggestions, i am finding it hard to find a frame to mount then on.

JDM curren has the rear end of a Celica 'Vert or the US spec Coupe thing.
Front end is unique I think. Mechanicals should be fine, but I think you have superstruts, so the suspension is rather different from a standard Celica setup. SS-III suspension bits would probably work, as that got superstruts as standard. So did GT-Fours, but the spring rates would be wrong.... -------------------- JDM ST205

three diff motors...........3sfe, 3sge, 4afe.....realistically, other than coilovers, struts, springs, and body kits (just the front lip), the curren fits ALL mods of the 6th gen celica....... has..........
