Zephri's 95 GT Options

[Zephri]

Well after a couple years I've finally found the car I was looking for after I sold my 95 Celica ST to my brother.

Meet the one owner completely stock unraped 1995 GT. Nothing has been messed with even the CD changer still works.

It has 234xxx miles or so, four bad struts needs new rear pads and discs I'll do the front anyways while I'm at it.

It has rust in the usual spots but it was definitely a garage kept well maintained car for being in the rust belt.

It will stay stock for the most part and this will just be my I've fixed this or put this in thread.

So! Things to do.

1. Replace Struts. Done!
2. Brake pads and rotors all around.
3. Maybe replace radio, as much as I love that stock radio I love having thousands of songs on a usb drive more.
4.Tune up
5. replace shift boot, I want to mod a rubber one to fit as I hate those sack lookin' things. It's a machine not a couch. Done!
6. Rust control
7.?????? yet to come, maybe replace speakers?

Seems good except for the battery holder as already mentioned. Since you're replacing struts anyway, might look into Tein lowering springs or the like. There are a few nice double DIN stereos out there that'd take up the entire space and have things like USB and AUX input, I think Pioneer has a nice one for around $100.

I know what you mean about anemic engines, just imagine how terrible they'd be with a slushbox behind them. Though in fairness the Celica ST's 7A-FE wasn't that bad for what it was with the 5-speed.
