Hey guys ! I'm 17 from Australia, Sydney.








Recently got the JDM tail lights and I love them !

Now waiting on Wolfie's clear bumper indicators. Then I'll probably look for a set of rims.

I'll keep you guys updated.

Feel free to post up suggestions.

Thanks ! smile.gif

Congratulations! How many miles? Looks clean.

You can usually find JDM tails up for sale here by members quite a lot, but they're also available on eBay.

Congratulations on your purchase.
Yes, says SwissFerdi, the cheapest and easiest way is to find spare parts on eBay.

Welcome to the site, and your car looks very clean!

I noticed it has the 94-95 front bumper on it though, and your information says '96. Did the previous owner get in a fender bender? Since you said it was resprayed.

I don't know if that's something about it being an SX. I'm not sure exactly what the SX is. It might not be anything at all, most likely just a little finder bender and it was cheaper to put that bumper on it than it was to get the facelift bumper. No matter what bumper is on it, this car is still clean!

Are you ok man?




Note: Australian domestic models are SX, SX-R, ZR and in limited numbers WRC GT-Four (Group A Rallye). SX has similar trim to the USDM ST model (poverty pack), SX-R is an upspecced model (possibly just a dealership extras package) and the ZR is the equiv to the USDM GT.

All FWD Celica models sold in Australia have the 2.2L 5S-FE, even the SX. They are all designated ST204.

No 7A-FE, 3S-FE nor 3S-GE resides in an Aussie Celica.


& Yes, That is a facelift car with a pre-facelift bumper (Not as Toyota intended), so someone would have had an accident of some sorts but don't worry, if the repair job was done right it will all hold up very strong as our cars have really good crash support beams.

I don't know, I think I actually prefer the 94-95 pre-facelift bumper. I think the pre-facelift + JDM foglights is far cooler than the 96-99 bumper.


However the Tom's lip is an option, as well as SS-III splitters.... Well maybe I'll grow to like my new bumper...


OP - You can score a set of tail lights from eBay or the Toyota dealer. As for clear side markers I would send a PM to Wolfie. He makes clear lenses for your pre-facelift turn signals, and I think he also does clear Euro/JDM side indicator lenses.
