Hello all, I recently purchased a real clean 1996 Celica gt as a gift good my son. I've been modifying cars and trucks for manny years and am stunned by the lack of aftermarket performance parts for this car. I can't find a car back exhaust for this thing. Not even on eBay. Anyone know what I'm missing here? We aren't trying to go crazy with mods just lower louder and clean. Thanks!

If you are specifically looking for just some good noise, you can pick out a muffler and have a muffler shop weld in place of stock. If you want a full catback, they can do that, too. I like the sound of an cone air filter, like a typical k&n. You will need to do a little homework to do generic stuff like this but often the result is actually better.
I don't feel especially limited when looking for celica mods. Much of the car is interchangeable with other common toyotas, and you can mount a and s motors without a lot of fuss. It's easy to work on. Cheap to replace. What more can you ask? It's not like a mustang or an eclipse back in it's day, but most cars don't have that kind of "every part under the sun" support. |

I'm not into welding a fart can muffler onto the stock exhaust. Thanks though! |

Then dont weld on a fart can, weld on a nice vibrant performance muffler and add a resonator in line. --------------------  1995 GT::::Diffusing the Situation エキサイティングカーレーシングチーム! march 2010 COTM : 6GC feature 2014 : january 2015-2016-2018 COTM |
