Hello my name is Kevin McCord i am 17 yrs old and im a knew owner of a 96 celica gt-s. it is my first car (i got lucky) and ive grown up around car...chevy's mostly camaros and chevelles...but seeing as this is MY car i wanna make the best of it and hopefully keep it considering i wanna play around with somthing other then a BB-chevy. actually this isnt my first car my first car was a 86 camaro berlinetta( 2.8) but had to sell cause of cash problems and gas prices. back to the celica im actually excited about it. i live in a town full of Civic-CRX's and Si's. and a few gsr's live on my block. and to be honest there all POS's cause everyone buys them and throws exhausts, and the bench sized spoilers...anyways any advice would help ill get more info on the car soon its sitting at my fathers in topeka i have seen it its white and the oonly thing that can go wrong is the 12yr old clutch...and i have some smarts about the car already when i heard i got it i went and did some research and all that jazz. ive asked questions but i cant rely on my sources cause everytime i ask there all like" why didnt u just get a civic" but meh ive been a toyota fan for the longest time my dream car is a 93 supra but ive got the celica as my first car which i think is a great start into the tuning...anyways ty for ur time and hope to hear from some ppl soon biggrin.gif
