Love that color
one would think that it was badge here in NZ GS standing for Grand Sport (or something) as for the lights not being changed could be at the build chage over date??? but not to sure on this

Yeah, I noticed this GS was missing from the car type selection in the my profile controls, aswell as the Curren...

i'll see if we have any info of what models were NZ new but no promises

Why not the TRD 300kph speedo?
Theres also SS-I coupe and SS-II coupe I think

I thought it was an aussie model at first (ZR Model)cause it has the 240km, standard a/c control.
Although the ZR didnt have leather seat, but its missing the fog lights.
Its got all the ZR standard option (drivers airbag and passengers airbag, side skirts, polished wheel)

I think all of the Canadian GT's have the 240 speedo. Those shouldn't be that hard to find.
yup but it's kinda stupid to have it when the car can barely even reach 150.. even the st205 with supposedly taller gears and higher redline have dials that go only up to 180kph.

Maybe the ST. You are in the prairies! You must have been able to get to at least 160! (until you reach a corner)

pretty much all japanese cars are 180km/h speedo and speed cut (the new ones are now full speed?)
have you manage to dig up any info Clint?

"she can polish my strut bar anytime As long as her blow-off valve's in good order"
now that i think of it.. pretty sure i made 150km/h. maybe even 170. terbear, were u already hitting the rev limiter at 120mph or could you have gone faster if you hadn't run out of road?

Once upon a time there was a red '95 3s-fe powered SS-I which hit 170kph @ 6000 RPM in 4th gear and still had more to go in 5th. Not saying who's it was or what kind of tarmac it did it on
Moral of the story? Don't count out the 5s. (I've never driven a 5s powered car ever, Just the 3s-fe, 3s-ge & 3s-gte but I'm pretty sure it's somewhere between the 3s-fe and 3s-ge)
ST205 tall gears - Yes, the redline is 6800 as opposed to 7000 so the top speed of each gear is still the same as the 3s-ge with s54.

ok i've just change the name of the thread so I dont start a new one when I find a odd celica
anyway heres one ive found today...
ok so its a 1996 SS-II celica with a 3S-GE but has a preface spoiler and a sunroof, i didn't think SS-II & SS-III had those, only SS-I & GT-4's. and damn its tidy.
ST202 SS-II CELICA threadNew Zealand members check inSticky thread's: How to contribute and troubleshoot.
thats a face lift toms spoiler.. looks like an ss-i with the toms package or spoiler
Learned a lot in 10 years...I hardly log in anymore, last loginToday Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOLIf you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in2grfe Swapped...Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here...A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within.@llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore.
looks like a the normal prefacelift 2 post spoiler to me, whats the difference, looks like a TRD exhaust aswell maybe??
but its diffently a SS-II (or else it would just have a 3S-FE engine), so maybe a toms edition? like you said.
ST202 SS-II CELICA threadNew Zealand members check inSticky thread's: How to contribute and troubleshoot.
Interesting find...
I found another <-- this hatch is obviously swapped on
Also,
I thought projectors & facelift tails were only on jdm???? <-- albany toyota would put those on that car????
justinholland's 1996 ss2 celica: the exhaust looks like the one that I have (jasma, was fitted in japan)... that hatch is very well done... since 1994 and 1995 red celicas are 'renaissance red' and 1996 is 'super red'
oh how bout this one... doesn't have any special traits about it, just your average 1996 celica, it lacks sunroof and other special celica insignias... but it's got 25th anniversary seats...

yeah I saw that one I gave the prices and part numbers to a person on toyspeed, so maybe it was them?

I reckon it could be a Tom's Edition SS-II
ahh so thats what the 25th anniversary seats look like.

what makes this even weirder is that only the 94-95 came with the 2 post spoiler. this could be either an SS-II or SS-III (3sge) but definitely not SS-I (3sfe)
