i'm very jealous ronan!! welcome to the site. the ssiii is sweet so is the levin. i wish we had either in the states but we got the short end of the cool vehicle stick
that's not the stock color is it? it looks like it's been painted at one time (emblems on the spoiler blocks aren't in the stock location) lookin good in red. as far as i know the beams ssiii only came stock in silver, black, and white (most commonly white)

welcome to the site as well
there are a couple ways to tell. i had a link to a japanese site that listed them but the link isn't working right now for some reason. there are a couple things that would determine. motor, suspension type, etc....
surprising not all ssiii celicas have the beams. take stetsonaw for example. his is an ssiii but it only has the normal 3sge motor but it has the climate control unit, superstrut suspension, front and rear strut bars and other things. the 98-99 ssiii is the best though. that's when they introduced the beams motor.
