Hey fellow Celica brothers! New here =D Options

[NZss1fun]

Hi all my name is Simon and im a proud new owner of my ss1 celica manual done 170,000kms, well kinda ive had this car for nearly a year now and also very familier about this great site, proved very helpful already!
When i bought my car i thought all celica's were the same but soon found out how wrong i was! bad luck was i got a ss1 celica the slowest of them all, oh well i love this car and it drives like a dream, got pics of her in my profile =D

only mods i have done since i bought it is pod filter and new free flow exhaust just to give that poor 3sfe engine a bit more power, still see a engine swap in the future mmmmm ss3 beams SO TASTY!

All i like to say this is a great site and im glad to finally been a member. Any other Celica owners in New Zealand? will be great to hear from ya.

cheers!

But yeah, Good luck in your search for an SS-III, Post the ads here if you see any that catches your interest we can tell if it's a genuine SS-III and advise you on common faults for various ages, etc.

Many people think Beams = SS-III, but it's not, it pertains to the year the 3S-GE engine was produced.

So you may pick up an SS-III not knowing, or you may get someone trying to sell an SS-II as an SS-III.

Whether you get the Beams or not, it's definitely worth it for the Superstrut and LSD.

Like you I started with an SS-I, looked good but wanted to make it more fun. I started reading stuff and learning about my car and the engines and decided not to touch the SS-I as there was nothing worth doing which made it significantly any better, then it got written off and I was paid out enough luckily to get an SS-III and it's been quite a journey from there.
