Hello everyone!

I just randomly won an auction for a Celica SR on eBay and only ended up paying £350 with 12 months MOT and no advisories.

I'm coming from a 2004 Yaris 1.3 vvti so it's nice to have a little extra power and there's already an exhaust on it, man the 7afe sounds sweet!

Here she is...

I really had to clean it up because it was pretty disgusting but worth the elbow grease. It needs a cam belt and I'm not quite sure if I should tackle it myself or not.

Happy to finally be a Celica owner! smile.gif I'll probably keep this until my next insurance change in Feb and then get a GT.

Welcome! Looks like a very nice car for very little money, well done! If you're good at following instructions and have some mechanic ability you should be able to do the timing yourself, aside from being transversely mounted making it harder it's a good learning opportunity since the 7A is non interference so there's not the stress of getting it wrong and trashing the engine.
