Silver Arrow (DD & Beater Celica) - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #91888 8 posts Started by Kev6GCTH
This is "Silver Arrow". She is Thai's spec celica.

I bought her from my teenage customer last year. GT-Four replica, broken front lip, gasoline system fail, run on LPG only, 18" Advan replica rims with 215/35 R18 NANKANG?? tyre.

At first, I plan to repair and sell, But fortunately or unfortunately I could sold another 3 cars. I change my plan to keep her as my DD & beater.
Build with "MINIMUM" budget basis.

First, I repaired gasoline system, problem came from my teen customer.He never refill gas , fuel pump dry run for a long time. --> fuel pump die. --> replace.

Then, I replace broken lip with replica C-ONE lip. And fortunately, another customer of mine like "fake" 18" Advan rims. He ask to swap with "real" 17" black racing + yokohama tyre.

This is her current look!





Her original engine was 5SFE with auto tranny.
The previous owner had swap 3SGE M/T (done by another shop).

I'm still wonder she had helical LSD or not.



For alternative fuel, LPG pressure reducer.



Tips.
If you want "more" negative camber, ST215's hub is the solution.

where do you get those lips... ebay, or is there a website, or just waltz into a store? nice car...

Besides those racing stripes it's a really nice looking clean car.

The interior looks great. Looks like the seats are in good shape and that custom center console is yummy.
You did good with it. thumbsup.gif

It made locally, My garage is also their distributor.

Why not, if its fiberglass it can be cut in half
