[st202import]

Hi guys brought my celica back in october after writing my honda civic coupe of , i brought has as a completely standard white st202 import with the super strut suspension , she came with the gt4 3 spoke wheels which after about a week they made me feel ill of seeing them so i went out and brought BBS wheels 18/35/255 for the back and 18/35/225 for the front ! fitment problems were a bitch !, when i brought her she was covered in grime and dirt so after a day of t-cutting and polishing she came up a treat .
she now has a 3"hks / japspeed exhaust system , L.E.D bulbs for all side lights ,number plates lights , yellow fog light and yellow high beams she has also been lowered around 50mm but im looking for a pair of coilovers for the front .

HOW THE HELL DO I INSERT PHOTOS INTO MY POST ????

The Civic looks much improved, nicely done.

Not often that one sees a staggered setup on a FWD drivetrain, how does it feel? I imagine a bit more understeery.

Lastly, welcome to the forum.

HA cheers mate na she was my pride and joy !. But i lernt you dont drive a show car like a dick . yeaa not to bad with staggered setup tbh .
and thanks for the welcome

also going to collect my bodykit later so will have more oics of her up tomorrow

[st202import]

Well guys n girls went and collected my kit last night and have spent today rubbing it all done ready to be fitted properly during the week but i lined up all the parts earlyer to take photos for u lot what do u guys think ?

[SwissFerdi]

I'm really liking this car. Good choice on a lip for the rear, such would be my preference as well. I've always, always been a fan of BBS wheels, they're fantastic, and I never really though a Celi could wear them well, but you have proven otherwise.

[st202import]

Thanks mate . yeah when i was looking at buying my BBS wheels my dad was said that they wont suit it but i had a image in my head all along and he now likes my car lots . still gotta paint and finish fitting the kit flush im aiming not to use any filler at all

[PolliS_5S-FE]

that honda is toast!

[BonzaiCelica]

nice job molding the front part of the lip to the center of your front bumper!

[st202import]

Yea sadly the Honda met its end in a high speed meeting with two trees and a ditch . But if it hadn't off happened I wouldnt off brought my celica :-) . The splitter is yet to be molded to the bumper I just took ages sanding it down so it fits flush :-) I'm a it of perfectionist when it comes to my cars. My dad used to work in a paint shop when he was younger so I have let him paint the parts and if I goes wrong I getta shout at him . As it turns out he painted the front splitter and skirts today and to be honest he has done a really good job:-). Still got work on the rear lip as it is a bloody bitch of a part to get sitting flush all the way around, plus I gotta reshape the he for my exhaust . Probs gonna fit splitter tomorrow but aiming not to use any filler so I am using polyurethene sealent so it bonds it and looks like its fillered

[st202import]

hi guys now have front spliter fully fitted as well as the skirts





ive decided to scrap the rear splitter and just go with spats and a carbon defusser also looking at a rear tow hook in bright orange

and today my 10mm wheel spacers have come for the rear wheels

Before

After


what u guys think

I like your Mustang. Always loved those first Mustangs. After that, all downhill. Granada looks like fun too with that LS1. Of course I like the Celica, but I have one so it's not as enamoring. Wheels are looking good! Nice looking car.
