Hey all.
Just purchased a 94 Celica GT Hatchback last week, and figured I'd join the site that there seems to be tons of useful information here. I was able to purchase from the original owner, car has 178k miles and seems taken care of. Need to get working on basic tune up stuff over the next couple weekends.

So far I threw in a Panasonic head unit that I had to replace the stock radio. I also have two Alpine Type E 12"s powered by a Power Acoustik Area 51 (520x2) amp that will probably be on soon. I still haven't decided on speaker replacements for the doors. I'm probably not going to spend much, with the economy sucking and all. I'm thinking possibly Alpine Type S's but have no intentions of getting an amp for them anytime soon. So any other recommendations? I listen to mostly rap, if that helps.

Also considering throwing on stock Acura RSX 16's, I hate the steelies.

Anyway, it's a great car and I love it so far. I feel it was a good $1900 biggrin.gif

Now for the important part, pictures.

Welcome.

I dont know much about speakers.

Looks like you have a nice straight car.

damn clean. if it drives good, it's a steal at 1900.
Looks like a very nice purchase for $1900.

As far as speakers go, I have Type-S' all around and I'm very satisfied. They're not amped and lack some bass, but they're crystal clear. If you're going to install subs anyway, I highly recommend those. You will have to kill your tweeters, however.
Very well maintained for a 170K car! Good buy!

If you plan on using an amp, check out CDT's line.

I have Boston Acoustic all four corners and couldn't be happier with the fitment and sound quality. Not sure if you consider that cheap enough - was on the high side of cheap IMO.

Thanks all. I'll check out the Boston Acoustic speakers.

Samir, I'm over on the east side near Valencia/UCF. Those rims look GREAT on your car.
Actually, it also depends on your budget. Those Alpines would be pretty much budget, the Boston Acoustics obviously would not...
