Show Us Your Motors!

Cheers. :)

It's a TRD axle back but also have a PPE Sports cat. Hoping to get a PPE midpipe without the resonator for it at somepoint.

I don't mind the wheels but think they look better darker than they do silver but that's just my opinion.
 
lol me? They are what come with the car. I've just had them powder coated because they were badly curbed (not by me i'll add) Only things I've added/changed to my car for visual effect is the rear lip and bonnet scoop. I guess the exhaust too in a way. Front lip etc is all standard and wing etc are all standard.
 
They are Fondmetal Tech 5's so it is possible they could be the same wheel. The caps say GT on them. The wheels are meant to be Silver hence why they look a tad odd.

And the Federal Super Steel 595 tyres ;)

I had a set of those years ago, they weren't that bad tbh. Nice Celica, nice to see one that's a bit out of the ordinary. Rear diffuser looks good and I like the exhaust.

I can't help but feel this should have always been a 4WD turbo monster. Seems a shame to call it a Celica when it doesn't live up to the previous ST185 and ST205 models.
 
I'm not too keen on the tyres but they will be going soon for something better. They were put on the car when I bought it though by the dealer so can't complain I guess...

I know what you mean about a 4WD Turbo monster it looks like it should be a bit more purposeful but just doesn't deliver. Ironically it's the reason I got it as being as tame as it is, it's cheap to run. :)

Where do you buy the TRD and PPE bits from out of interest?

TRD lip, exhaust and Sport-M scoop I got from cheaptoyotaparts. I had to wait a few months for the exhaust alone to come, but was worth it in my opinion.

The PPE stuff I get directly from them. It's pricey due to the Import taxes but I don't like to skimp on when it comes to parts and I know it will all work and what the quality is like.

Have you got one? you on Celica Club?

Cool thanks. No I have a 2005 Corolla T-Sport, i'm resisting the temptation of modding it for the moment but if it needs a new exhaust at any point i'd like an aftermarket one

Ah not sure what is available in regards to the Corolla. If you get a part number or tell the bloke from CTP what you are after he can generally source it if you are willing to wait at times.

Not sure if any of the PPE stuff is good for the Corolla or not but if you email the bloke there too he is dead helpful and will advise as necessary. Try nengun too they have a decent array of bits.

Phoenix Yellow with Kiwi Leather :o I borrowed a mates earlier this year and loved the colour combo that much. Pictures make the interior look worn but it isnt, just the drivers side bolster slightly. Thinking of changing the dashboard surrounds to wood or carbon fibre.
