Hey Guys.

Recently I purchased my first car, being 15 and from New Zealand I decided a Celica is a good car and for not too much money.

I have become a lot more interested in it and doing small mods and I signed up here seeing all the handy tutorials you all have.

Now, What can I say, what an awesome forum.

Firstly, I know I have a 1993 Toyota Celica, But it is the 6th Gen Shape (Must be December 1993 or something)

It is a ST202 iirc. 3S-GE I think I have also seen under the bonnet, oh it is also the 2.0 litre. biggrin.gif

Here is a pic of the rear -



It doesn't say GT or anything. I know it aint a GT4 though ofcourse tongue.gif.

If the front helps then -



Also interior if the dash helps?




I know it needs a few things such as the 'parcel tray' (For the boot?) , I need to install a new stereo system including speakers, and maybe lower slightly in the future, but firstly I want to know what type it is, and also what you all think?

Hope General is an ok to post this, if not the mods please move it.

Cheers biggrin.gif

Jack

JDM is the japanese domestic market but it's hard to say with you living in New Zealnd cos i don't know what cars you actually got down there and what their factory specs are. best off having a look at the chassis plate behind the engine on the fire wall will have a VIN/Frame No note it down post it up or compare it with others http://www.celica-club.co.uk/wiki/index.ph...s_&_Figures


as for the first car bit, in the UK i doubt many people would be able to run one as a first time car due to cost of insurance, although the cars are pretty cheap to buy now i at 27 have to pay £800 sterling a year to insure her plus the 30mpg average, if i was 17 again i'd probably have to pay well over £2000 sterling a year to insure the car. then there is road tax at over £200 sterling a year, again i don't know what running cost would be like in New Zealand.
