hey there i am completely new to the world of toyota and gen 6's but as it goes I LOVE THEM !!! i have manged to get hold of a bargain at £900 for an ST model.

I really want to make it a looker and a head turner but havent got a clue where to start and as time is an issue being in the army i dont think i will have loads of time but i am very open to suggestions on what to do to it

It came with a spoiler alloys and tinted windows so there are a few less jobs but any ideas would be great

thanks for reading

Host the pictures on a site like photobucket and copy and paste the image URL to this.

Btw, welcome to the site! If you have any questions about anything, feel free to ask! I look forward to seeing some pics of your new whip.

here is the new pictures as promised and that is phase 1 of the interior now done just got to wait for the funding for the next job which should be leather re-trim,
Hopefully i will get through the first part of cleaning the engine tomorrow then see where i go from there not really looking for performance anymore to be honest i think i will stick with cosmetics more then anything.

hey all...been quiet on the home front just got back from afghanistan. so thought i would give the celica a little bit of TLC. to start with ripped all of the horrible gauges, red painted plastic trim, the dial covers. Also just manged to get a nice set of HID lights which should arrive in a couple of days, so that will be all at the moment just glad i got the interior sorted, but to be honest i think i may have to look into a gt4 now and step up my game witha nice big turbo, any feedback on the car would be great, i want to make this a suttle but sweet gen6 smile.gif

What were the gauges indicating anyway?

As for something else, I'd recommend some black floor mats with red lining, would add a nice touch.

the gauges where pointless laugh.gif i think it was oil temp voltage and oil pressure the last owner did a terrible job so pulled them out, the mats sound like a good idea, have to look around from them. thanks for the ideas
