What Type Of Celica Do I have?, I know some bits, but not sure about GT etc Options

[Jacko]

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.

Here is a pic of the rear -



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

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

Jack

Looks like a SS-I no? Being a 93. At these times Japan usually releases it's own car a year before other regions. The production of these cars in Japan started in the Fall of 93. You surely have a ST202 if you have a 3s-GE. New Zealand & Australia only got the ST204 (5s-FE = Zr, Sx-R & Sx) & ST205 (3s-GTE = GT-Four). You have an imported St202 which in my opinion is a SS-I. As mentioned above do you have "Super Strut Suspension"? Should say it on the bottom of the back window and if not you can raise the car a bit and take a gander for yourself and snap a pictures of it to post.

Maybe you could check that above link I posted, although the USDM ST204 covered a very narrow line up, however the JDM ST202 was a very common chassis number covered all the SS series and convertible models (though the SS-I with 4WS was ST203) & those ST204 models names were for the Aust market our ones are called... GS, yup we had to be different


sweet Jack, check T.ME for wreaking celica parts or 'toyota part connections' regarding those parts and missing parts. Anyway enjoy your new car, take it easy.
