So after watching at this forum for a while i thought it was time to make my own thread.
I have my celica for a year and 2 months now and still love driving it. biggrin.gif

So it's a 94 st wich i bought with 174000km on the clock imported from Italy in 2007.

When i first got her:








2 weeks after i got her i changed: Timingbelt, Fuel filter, oil + filter, Valve cover gasket, brake flued, spark plugs, thermostat and the coolant.

The armrest on my centerconsole was a bit damaged so i wrapped it in new leather:

Before:

After:

Have to do this again sometime with black leather.

the car had some damage so now it was time to let that fix up so i did a full respray.

The bad:






The guy from the paint shop did this in his spare time so after a couple of weeks it came back like this:







Then i put the bumpers and stuff back on and she looked like this:







After i few weeks i bought new wheels because the old wheels were damaged:









And my latest update:


I've also added a st205 front strutbrace, Green air filter and euro splitters.
Next things to do are:
Change oil and filter, change tranny fluid and put the summer wheels back on.
Mount the 2 post spoiler on the hatch that's sprayed and ready to be installed.

And make some good pictures.

Hope you've enjoyed if not sorry. laugh.gif

MMMMM...fresh 199 Alpine Silver. I like it a lot.

And I'd actually say stick with the preface bumper, throw some OEM fogs on it and TRD splitters and you'd be set. biggrin.gif

I really like your car. It is a Silver beauty. I forget, do the netherlands get a 7A or a 3S-FE in the ST?

Loving the GT-4 bumper and I hope you keep your beauty classy and classic wink.gif.

In The Netherlands the st has a 7A without EGR and without leanburn.
My car was sold as new in Italy and it also got the 7A without EGR and without leanburn.

So i gues the euro spec celica st's came with a 7A without egr and leanburn.
The Carina E and Avensis have a 7A with leanburn.
