Fresh Celica Owner Saying Hi!

[Sarka]

Hi everyone!

My name is Louis, I am studying automotive and motorsport engineering in the UK. I was always a huge JDM fan & I just bought my first car (project) 1996 toyota celica st202. This car has covered only 160000km, it has 2.0 129 kW engine and a custom exhaust pipe. For now I want to but new wheels and drop her down a little bit, around 3-4 cm... and a few things for interior like sport seats. Further plans are to put a turbo in it and install a 4wd system from gt4 (if it is possible) so briefly my plan is to make it a GT-FOUR...

For now that's all about me and the car, I hope that I will be able to come to the first meeting if it will be somewhere in Yorkshire I attached a photo of the car !

The Yamaha designed and built engine! Yep...

[Sarka]

Thank you.. What kind of wheels would be best for it? And what kind of size?:D because I cant decide right now...:(

[Mistermena]

For some reason I can't post picks up here of my gt4 205! But 17" are the best size! If you go on the forum I told you about you'll see what some of the guys are using! There are some lovely ones on there. Ive just put 4 Brand new conti sport 5 on my faff! Fab an all. Pm me and I'll be able to send you some pics.

[Sarka]

Thats great! Thanks! Because I am really strugling with wheels :( just I need to wait about month before i will be able to change it.. And I am really need turbo in celica :D

[Mistermena]

I think it would be cheaper to just buy a gt4 205 import like I did! These go for around the 2-5k mark! And only around 140 left running! So the prices are going up rather than down for these originally 30k 1990's cars. I'm on the look out for anothet one now! As well as a Supra twin turbo.

[Sarka]

The thing is that I am studying automotive engineering, and I need as much experience as I need to get, so thats why I want to turbo it by myself. I thought about gt4, but it is gonna be more interesting than just buy gt4 :D

[Mistermena]

Fair enough! :)
