Went to Texas to get this.... - 6G Celicas Forums

#1

Drove 15 hours from Minnesota to Texas to get it. It's a 1994 Celica GT 5spd for the wife but I'll be working on it a bit. It's very clean. A couple chips here and there but overall great body (pearl white) and underbody, which is what i wanted. Got a great deal on it. Huge thanks to a member here. I hope he chimes in. It's basically stock besides the JDM projectors and an aftermarket deck. I hope to get the GT-FOUR front end and 3sgte motor in sometime before snow hits. In the meanwhile, I'm looking forward to adding bits and parts (s2000 antenna, removing badges, short shifter, etc). Well, here are a few pictures of the car.

Just thought I would peek in and see if you had done anything with the Celica... How is it? Hope you are still satisfied.

wow, it's been a while since i've been in here. i've been super duper busy with my work schedule. how you doing mister? glad you're still lingering around! anyways, i've done a little bit to it. here's what i've done so far:

swapped the enkei's for my brother's stock GT rims
ordered new splash guards for both the front wheel wells
gt-four rear strut brace
twosrus rear endlinks
tenzo springs
kyb gr-2 gas shocks
bottom engine cover
jdm taillights

i didn't do as much as i would've like to because of my two daughters and my hectic work schedule. but once everything tones down, ill be ordering more parts. this car has been wonderful for me as i daily drive it. clutch is going but fortunately, i was able to find a corolla beater today and picking it up tomorrow. ill be storing the celica next week and working on it here and there. me and my wife are glad we bought it. it was definitely worth the 30 hours to and back lol.

hopefully by february ill have these parts already awaiting to get installed in the springtime: exterior seals, cf hatch, gt-four front end along with 3sgte swap, and tein coilovers. ill slowly work on it to make sure everything is right. if you ever fly to rochester,mn next year, ill show you bro
