new to site, not new to celicas :) Options

[2celicas2love]

Hi everyone! My name is Erynn I am new to this site but not new to celicas, my love affair started in 1999 when i got my '94 st in black. I loved that car to death and it was so dependable and sexy and I drove it for 8 years until I had an accident at 180k, the damages were pretty $$ but it wasn't totaled so I sold it to my nephew(HUGE MISTAKE) for cheap and he ran it into a house a week later, yea so that was pretty sad and it was totaled. I then got a 2000 celica GT (don't shoot me, got it for cheap) and have had it for 3 years, its a great car but somehow I never ever got over my 6th gen. FINALLY a month ago I got a '95 ST with 91K one owner, amazing mileage. So yea, I am the proud owner of two ceilcas I can not part with either of them. They are so different but for sure the 6th gen has my heart. I plan to completely change/customize it (no rice-izing), just classy simple, clean and sexy is the plan I'd love to eventually do a gt FOUR swap long down the road after I get a ton of mileage out of this engine, heck 91k is nothing for a 15 year old car. Luckily, I have two cars so it's ok for the 95' to be worked on for long amounts of time. Funny thing is I can't stop driving it since I got it. It needs body work and paint but mechanically, its good. Anyhow, Looking forward to the meet, and importantly meeting others that are obsessed with celicas as I am.
heres a quick view of my babies.

nice i love my 6GC but always wanted a 7th gen as DD. nice cars . and welcome.

whats DD? Thanks! yea they are freaking awesome I wish it was a GTS, but its fast enough for me in the GT, i don t need anything crazy fast, I love how different it is from the 6th gen and I love the styling and interior of it.

[richee3]

DD is short for daily driver. And welcome to the site! Glad to hear you aren't going to "rice-icize" the car out. You're in the right place for Celicas!

[j0e_p3t]

Welcome to the site!

Really diggin' the ST...is that 3L2 Renaissance Red?

Of the two cars which one gives you a better sense of "get-up-and-go"?

Hello! thanks! yes it is reniassance red, don't be fooled by the pictures its TERRIBLY oxidized and shot to heck, so I will be re painting it what color, I don know yet, I am really not a fan of the red at all... i might do a midnight blue that looks black or straight up black, honestly I might do a poll because I do not know what to do in regards to the color. I thought it might be dis respectful for my '94 that is RIP to do it black, because it was black, (yes i worry about my deceased car's feelings still), For the "get up and go" well that's a tough one, 1st of all my 2000 GT is auto, but it is very quick (not a dog i promise, or I wouldn't of bought it) , the engine has more horsepower than the '95and you can can feel the difference, BUT the '95 is a stick so in that sweet spot of 4500-5000 rpms it feels more powerful. Such a hard question to answer because honestly the two cars are so entirely different, but I am going to have to say that the '00 has ***slightly*** more get up and go, it hauls, but all in all they are very close. To defend my ST, it's much more fun to drive and has a really good pep to it, I am sure that when I get my intake, exhaust, headers and other fun add ons, the 'st will own the 00.

welcome! glad to hear that you share the same love and passion for the 6gc just like everybody else on this site. if you interested in going to a so cal/ chino hills meet this upcoming friday and saturday. heres the link:

http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=68805

[lilgreenyoda]

Welcome welcome. Glad to know someone else on here also enjoys the 2000 era celica, and it's not just me anymore! I also have a 6gen and 7gen... even though the 7gen just exploded. But it wasn't my fault. I definitely dig both of mine too. As for a color for the 95, I had a toss up between black and a sort of 350Z blue. I'm going with black. So you should go with blue. That way your dead cars feelings wont get hurt and I'll get to see pictures of what mine would have looked like.

[2celicas2love]

Awesome! Another 7th gen lover!! I am leaning towards a midnight blackened blue maybe a metallic sheen. Or just stark blue that Appears black but blue in the sun . Sorry to hear about your 7th gens engine. Are you planning on fixing it? What color is it?

[Ted95]

looks good, chat room is a good place to go to talk about stuff and get to kno ppl.

[Hazmat]

Welcome! Nice find on the red celi! Paint looks great minus some of the weather beaten parts but hey, that's what paint jobs are for right?

welcome to the site.... but don't forget... search before asking questions that have been asked/answered 100's of times.... Although for some reason, I think most people will give you a pass, for some unknown reason. haha

Awesome! Another 7th gen lover!! I am leaning towards a midnight blackened blue maybe a metallic sheen. Or just stark blue that Appears black but blue in the sun . Sorry to hear about your 7th gens engine. Are you planning on fixing it? What color is it?

Hit me up on PM. I'll get you my email address so I can show you what a friend of mine photoshopped that to look like. It's pretty sweet. And my 7th gen will be ok. She'll be sliding sideways around corners again real soon. And I definitely had to get the Super White on the 7th gen. I miss my babies though. Can't wait to get back!

[TRD_Ian]

didn't know fwd could slide around corners??..... any who welcome to the site.....as said before dont let the vultures scare u off....this is a very helpfull site with alot of great ppl.... pretty smile like that im sure ul have no problems gettin info from ppl about these cars

i dont look it but im 28, and my first 6th gen i got when i was 19 before that i had a crappy honda accord EWWWW

Seems as if she was scared away.

read, i didn't say they couldnt?? i said i didnt know they could..... usualy in a fwd car u dont try to slide around turns because its lame unless its rwd and ur actualy drifting... fwd u try to carry speed threw the turn and stay planted...loose traction ur loosing speed....unless ur trying to be a fool and hand brake turns... which is just wrong lol

sorry for the cluter miss, again welcome to the family

[Euphoria]

Welcome to the site, its got so much info!

take no notice of the sad guys make sure you update us with what you do to your car.

[epocsirhc]

i had a crappy honda accord EWWWW
Thats right!

[2celicas2love]

i had a crappy honda accord EWWWW
Thats right!

yes a 89' accord biggest joke i ever had. i don't understand the honda craze, i had a "good" one too that was taken care of and that dam thing had nothing but b/s things go wrong one after the other and the mileage was not high. Then my 2nd car was the 94' celica and never one problem except regular Maintenance and the story continues with my second celica and third celica. My next car I will like to change it up I want the SE camry 6spd I will sell neither of my celicas haha. I love it when honda people challenge me i say look i have owned both i know what is better and what will last for eternity, and it's NOT Honda.

Welcome to the site, its got so much info!

You should do a black with a blue pearl. We painted my friends BMW with that same color and it came out pretty nice. It looks black in general, but when any light (sunlight, headlights) shines on it, it reflects a hue of blue. Pretty nice color I must say!!! Oh, and welcome to site!!!!

I believe the color you're looking for is "Nighthawk Black Pearl" - I think it's an Acura color, actually.

Welcome to the site, nice to see another girl on here!
