Help choosing what to do with my '94 Options

[razor7]

Hey guys,
I recently bought a '94 celica GT. I found it at a local Toyota dealership with under 100k miles on it. I actually even talked them down to low blue book as well! The car is completely cherry, not a scratch or ding on it. It was owned and operated by a lady in her mid 40's as a weekend car and probably was never taken over 3500 rpms. From what I can tell, this thing is as close to finding one brand new (at least in my area) as you can get.

So I got my beloved celica home, and ended up finding this site. One of the reasons why I love the older 94-99 celica's is for their styling. A mixture of an integra and a supra, which are both cars that I like the looks of. After searching through these forums however, I learned about the GT-4s, where my cupholders are (yeah, couldn't find them) along with many other interesting topics.

However that leads me to my actual question. Since all of you not only have owned or do own a 6th gen celica, what tasteful mods do you recommend? I LOVE the stylings of the GT-4, but I find it useless to put a bunch of exterior mods on a car that is only pushing out ~130hp, and in all honesty, when I want to break 160mph I just jump on my '97 suzuki gsxr 750. In any event, it's still much quicker then my last car - a '91 4runner 4x4

So let me know what you guys think. I found the GT-4 hood on ebay, along with the spoiler risers and some other misc. stuff. I do understand that trying to find a decent shape and decent price body kit for this thing will be a headache, but that's where I'm hoping some of the senior members here can step in. Like I said, I'm looking to do tasteful mods, and if anyone has something lying around I might be interested in taking it off of your hands.

As you can see, Betsy is in magnificent shape. I love her to death. I lucked out even more since this one has EVERYTHING you could have asked for; the ABS package, Leather seats, etc.

Thanks for the help,
-TC

Welcome,
The best advice I can give you is to take a few days and scour this site. You will find good ideas in the forums. Also check out the parts list, how-to's, and tech articles sections. Then, when you are done with that, check out celicatech.com, toyotacelicaonline.com, yotarepair.com/celica.html, and just do a search using your preferred search engine. That will give you plenty of ideas to digest. Best of all, take your time and do what you like...not what's popular now (ie; JDM this or that, etc.). In the end, you'll be happier with the car. I've only had mine for about a month and have been steadily plugging away. It takes time and can be frustrating trying to find some of the items you would like for a reasonable price, if at all. Good luck and happy hunting.
