Hello Fellow members!

1994 Celica ST Coupe 98k (stock)

So far from reading on this forum I have learned a lot so far great forum and lots of info, I see that there's not a lot of coupes on here, I prefer a hatch myself but can't complain the car was given to me haha. Progress is slow on this toyota but still is progress I have another car im finishing at the moment but once the Lincoln is all set it's a go for the coupe. Upon further inspection on the toyota I did find out that the car was originally white then sprayed pink WTF!! and is now black....Weird I know other than that she is all stock as far as I know. I however manage to hit a local LKQ (salvage yard) and got one side skirt ,a wing (Im probably not going to use) 96 stock bumper and a few other little items. As soon as I got the bumper I got it sprayed, the stck 94 bumper I could not stand any longer lol, I also had to refinsh the turn-signal lenses they were in really bad shape!

Thats about all for now But I will keep this thread going with the progress.

Future Mod list so far:

Lowering springs (megan)??

Lip trunk spoiler off of ebay

Curren tail lights

Projector headlights

Also if you guys have any info on anything for this build please help a brotha out haha and post all thinks you would like im still confused on what fit on the coupe as far as splitters and such, im not liking any of the body kits ive seen so far,I like a nice clean sporty look(OEM).

For starter good looking coupe I got a 95 coupe with a few light mods an a v6 swapped 94 hatch lol
Ad for what fits the coupe
Front- anything 6gc or full curren front swap
Sides - anything 6gc
Rear- hiro rear splitter (like crtrd has) or curren rear splitters ( what I have )
Wings - post facelift 2 post coupe spoiler ( kinda rare an its not the same as a hatch spoiler) stock 3 post ( witch looks better with the center post deleted ) an curren trd wing (rare in the states)
Tail lights- stock or curren

Anything performance wise you won't notice big gains on a st unless you turbo
Swaps are fun if you got the cash. An don't be afraid to try something diffrent lol

Good luck an happy parts hunting

Hey Manoli! I've just taken my front bumper off, and I noticed that my indicators are in pretty poor shape. Kinda yellowy like the first pic of yours. How did you clean yours? Or are they new?

Sorry for such a late reply I have not been in so long!!

I actually used a 3m sanding kit for headlights then finished them off with 50/50 mixture of of spar urethane and mineral spirits.

I can do write up for you guys if you would like.

Well progress stopped on my celica a few months ago and now im back on track!!

Since OCT. I have only done a few things, I did change the front bumper to 96 sport bumper cover and added the fog-lights and brackets as well. I do not have them working at the moment, still trying to figure out how im going to wire them in?? Anybody have any ideas?


I also did change over the clock as the green is very out-dated to me:



I used the plastic cover off of a pencil box from wal-mart
