New project i've got myself :

1996 Rev3 ST202 3SGE 2.0



Plan is to fit an LPG kit and then convert it to a V6 later this year. It's in grand nick and some nice bits on it too so am happy. Having to sell the t-bar to fund it : http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110262325866&_trksid=p3907.m32&_trkparms=tab%3DSelling 

Only needs a couple of bits to set it off completely. Will be my daily drive and for running back home in every now and again.

Wanted to keep the t-bar and LPG that but if i do then i've got no room for carrying anything. This should do perfectly.







Hope u like as much as i do,
Olie

Looks nice as it is from the outside, so please dont say your going to change it. Sounds like a decent project.

It just needs something on the front end, a very slim splitter.

Don't worry am not gonna throw silly kits on it.

Very unusual colour to see on a Celica but I think it looks brilliant. The wheels really suit the car too.

Hehe, i've got a 1995 2.0GT in the usual boring silver. Sooo much more fun to drive than the Scooby i had before it.

Has yours got the overdrive button on the gearchange? Fun, fun fun.

I had great plans for mine when i bought it but i've not had time to do anything except fit a decent stereo as we've been busy stripping and rebuilding a vw aircooled camper. I was going to get the engine tuned, change a few bits under the bonnet and colour code the hoses, fit a veilside or a hiro bodykit and get her resprayed in silver flake with a purple lacquer and my bf wanted to fit a turbo ..... maybe once we've finished the other projects.

Suggest you drive yours as it is for a little while and press all the buttons to see what they do, mine are all marked in japanese so i kept expecting an ejector seat! i'm getting 424 miles to a full tank which is much better than my bf's 1.8 passat. I decided against lpg as i bought it for the huge boot and it would've defeated the object filling it with a tank!

Best car i've driven in a long time and in the last two years it's not let me down once unlike the Scooby.
