Hmmm... PITA for installers probably means I won't be able to afford it for a while tongue.gif But I plan to be sticking around for a few years at least smile.gif

Its funny you say that, because just after I got my 6GC, one of my best mates just started saving up to get a 1GC to play with tongue.gif

Good to see you haven't forgotten about yours smile.gif

Cya,
Josh smile.gif

P.S. Have you reverted to a stock front bumper with the front lip/skirts on the sides at the front? Or does the body kit just look deceiving on the side in those last pics?

Coilovers are a good option. I went with BC Racing which were around $1,300 shipped and very easy to instal at home.

Car is looking great BTW. smile.gif

where do I get side skirts like that? Are they stock for the 96+ celicas? My 95 convertible just has the straight rough textured black ones.

edit: I was referring to the first post. I just saw that you put a body kit on in the last couple posts. What is that front bumper though?

I am also in Australia with a '97 ZR Celica. Those sideskirts from the original photos are standard on all post-facelift ZR Celicas in Australia, and were an optional extra on the other models. I believe they are exactly the same as the SSIII side skirts.

Yep Josh is correct. The first pics of the car is the OEM sideskirt. Was standard on the ZR (facelift) in Australia, GT in America also had them (need to confirm but pretty sure). It was on the SS-III in Japan (maybe other model too).

Ebay US has a few of them last time i checked smile.gif

The current pics you see there is the Varis Arising II kit (front, back and side)
