What I'm most likely going to do, if it's not too expensive is have a curren/celica front clip (at least from steeringwheel/stickshift forward) shipped to the states. I'm looking into it right now. As for the interrior panels and dash and such, I'm not a bit worried about that stuff, I'm going to do a complete custom interrior, and I know it sounds kinda stupid/arrogant, whatever you wanna call it, I'm going to fabricate a full custom bodykit, molded into the rest of the body, It'll be a REAL wide kit, (as long as everything goes according to plan anyways:D) and to top it off, '02 Silvia headlights, and '92 Skyline tail lights(this is a maybe, I might find different tail lights depending on the design of the rear kit I decide on) So I have a lot of work ahead of me, got a lot of plans drawn out for it, long story longer, you simply will not recognize it as a Celica when I'm through with it ![]() Robert |

Well, I decided to try something drastic, providing it isn't expensive. Anyone know what parts I need to take from a RHD to convert the LHD to RHD? Or how about a listing of the parts, my searches have turned up nothing, thanks in advance. Rob |

Hey everyone, just looking to see if there's anyone out there who has done the 3SGTE swap and also converted to right hand drive. I'm just trying to find out some info before I start any real work. Thanks in advance, Robert |

Hi all, new to the forums. I'm currently in Okinawa Japan, and importing anything from here to the states is friggin' expensive, so I decided to try something different. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me that the Toyota Celica, and Curren (year specific 94-99ish???) are almost the same car. The only exterrior differences are the entire front clilp, and the rear window/trunk/hatch. What I'm thinking of doing as long as they are all interchangable, is bring back an entire Curren front clip(front bodykit, aftermarket headlights, fenders and hood) and put 'em on a Celica, but only if they're interchangable. I believe Currens were only made in the mid 90's, I doubt if there are any other generations. I've only seen the single exact same gen of Curren in the 2 years that I've been here. Everything about the 2 are soooo close, I hope these brothers can share ![]() Robert |
