Gen5 has the cooler body....Gen6 has the better power,PITA suspension though Mind you ,should have kept your green 205 mate.... that was lovely

Beams engine for sale in the Parts section

MTEC discs for the gen4 ..

crikey it looks a bit...special TBH

This.I only run Shell nitro in mine as its an import engine

Set of facelift st182 calipers from SKINY to do an upgrade mod to the brakes on the Beams 162

you'd have to have an instant love affair with that car to warrant taking it on.

Have you gone right through with the Confused quotes,dont forget the original price doesnt usually include hardly anything on the policy you will actually need.Its usually a lot more once you've added on bits.Don't forget we still have a Non Celica section if you go the MR2 route or something

Glad you're in one piece,the car did its job there.

Nice one,so,how long will it stay like that?

Theyll probably go up in value the three spokes because as you rightly say theyre light and a lot of them have been mullered on track cars over the years so a good straight set are worth keeping hold of I reckon

Im off to Halfords then out to get me some new rims from somewhere

Buy it and ill nick the S54 off it thankyouverymuch

that might be looneys old car

no need to move it mate.what a soundtrack!

I have the 'BR' series from BC.I had a chat with Steve at GT4play about the spring rates and such,I went for the lower end (typically i cant remember the exact spec) of rating,with 30 clicks of adjustment ; you can go from a firm but pliable ride to a rock hard setting in seconds.Got a really good price going through him.http://www.bc-racing.co.uk/br-series-coilovers Think i went for the 6kg spring for the front and 4 at the rear actually.You can specify right up to about 12k though but that is unnecessary for a road car IMO .

I think the BCs on softer setting would be liveable on a daily basis mate plus like said you wont have to drop the car right down either.the BCs BR series have 30 clicks of adjustment.Steve at GT4Play sorted mine and he'll be able to advise on the spring rates available for what you need too

..and like Steve pointed out,where do you go for good club advice...here of course.Even Pistonheads know this here's the imported gen4,not the one you guys would be used to seeing.....its the one with the booty back end,and the slightly asthmatic engine.Remember this being up for sale,we dont miss a lot us gen4 types http://www.pistonheads.com/regulars/ph-features-sheds/shed-of-the-week-toyota-celica-st/28341 and a nice gen5 http://www.pistonheads.com/regulars/ph-features-sheds/shed-of-the-week-toyota-celica/30987

Nah,go for that shopping wagon I posted up,fit some coilovers and decent brakes and surprise the boy racers at the lights

Whack it in this http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C578039 Proper sleeper,and looks mint

What a good idea Could use another Beams Gen4 in the club... Heres a good looking car http://www.ebay.com/itm/221672534155 and what it could look like in there Would recommend using the Beams clocks,save a LOT of wiring hassle (ask Bek) If not I reckon a sleeper Corolla would be a good bet and not too much hassle

Its possible like Paul says its not picking up fuel,if you can get it level or just stick a few quids worth in out of a can then you can rule it out if it still wont fire up...you've got to fill it up anyway you should try and avoid running it that low on fuel anyway mate if you can

Or do the right thing and spend the money on your Celica which you've done

If I was looking at a Lexus it would have to be the Altezza with the Beams engine like said,around 210bhp compared to the UK IS200

Hope you'll be popping into the gen4 broom cupboard for a chat and a brew as well as the 7 section After all you are still the Guru ..
