well, i recently brought a 1995 gen 6 st202 import 3S-GE.

£2000, 91,000km on the clock which is around 56,000m

from what i can see...

HKS intake
HKS hyper muffler, cat back exhaust
APEXi springs, not sure if its just springs..
Rear strut bar, standardish looking, like its from a ST205 perhaps
APEXi S-AFC, installed but not set
TRD hi pressure radiator cap
gears are kinda close together, not sure if there all like it

only thing I've done to car is spray the dash and dial displays white.

basically i have pretty much no knowledge of celica's... and wondering what i could do performance wise..

a de-cat and kph to mph converter and de-limiter are on the list!!
cam belts due a change asap! while thats getting done is it worth changing for lightweight cams or better of leaving them.

I've searched the forums and read bits, looked on fensport.co.uk

flywheel, Alloy Alternator Pulley, Alloy Crankshaft Pulley ect.... are any of these worth getting??
also the brakes discs are pretty worn, am i advised to go grooved or are stock discs ok? are ST205 discs better (do they fit)

and before some ones says, NOOOOO I CAAANTT GET INSURED ON A GT4 so thats off topic :eek:

thanks....

Is the car rebuilt/salvage title? That seems like a really good price, especially with the mods it already had. Are celicas cheaper outside the U.S.?

Maybe I should just move there and buy that off you, it's way too much hasle learning about the 6th gen Celica. I'm really just looking out for you, you see smile.gif

brought it from some import garage, they wanted £2500, but as the brake pads and discs need replacing and the cam belts due a change, i was only willing to pay £2000 biggrin.gif as far as i can see the cars seems to be fine, theres piles of japanese documents with it. of corse it has its small let downs, but i expect that for a 1995 car. i'll post some pics up.

im just not sure wots worth doing to the car.
i imagine a de-cat is one of the best power to £££. swaping it over once a year is no problem.
