Hey guys,
I've just purchased a 1999 Celica SX-R and I was wondering what mod's I could do to it for reasonable prices i'm only 17 (18 in a week and a 1/2) so I don't have money to just throw around lol. I don't really know to much about engine spec related stuff but i'm keen on learning. (I'm from Melb btw CelicaZR) Ta This post has been edited by esk-: Jul 24, 2005 - 8:54 AM |

First of all, what type of mods do you want to do? Performance/mechanical related or aesthetics, and how much are you willing to spend?
In terms of performance, you could probably get a custom CAI going for pretty cheap, and in terms of exterior/interior you could change your interior colours and gauge picture, get some clear indicators, etc. -------------------- ![]() |

First off happy 18th birthday.
you can do a number of things for resonable prices, I would start with some wheels, altough there not exacly cheap, but do make a big diff, also as above mentioned, you can get an intake (very easy and cheap,) probibly put on a muffler, there not very costly, a set of clear corners, paint your dash peaces and/or door peaces, a new sterio. there are a number of things that you can do, its all up to what exacly you want. -------------------- ![]() |

Welcome to the site. I'm guessing you're probably from Australia because it's an SX.

Yah I'm from Aus lol, ok just got a pic for ya's all -.^ Yeh I was after a CAI what would you guys recommend.. I've got probably 2 grand for everything at the moment (aus currency don't forget ^^). Also after new exaust and muffler for the time being. Umm just a bit curious on side skirts, I would really like to get some to change the 'feminine' look about it so would I have to get front a rear stuff to match it.. Any advice and recommendations thankyou

Probably the best choice for a CAI would be a custom made one, there are a few articles in the how-to section. Good luck with your new ride!

Nice ride, looks like mine, how much did u pay for it? What features does it have?
If you get OEM sideskirts (which are pretty damn expensive) you could also get the SS-III front and rear splitters which complement them perfectly. -------------------- ![]() |
