  4. I had my g7 resprayed from lagoon blue to honda championship white. The job was fantastic and in my eyes the car really stood out. Would I do it again or recommend it... No. Just stick to the oem colours, it's a pain in the arse if you need things spayed in the future because of accidents,stone chips etc... Not only that when you eventually come to sell the car everyone takes a negative view to a resprayed car and always assume you're hiding something with fresh paint. If the paints looking tired and you like the silver them definitely go for the same colour! Just my past experiences and opinions!

  6. Haha! Im sure you shook his hand off Vauxhall do make you laugh though its like the new astra vxr is being advertised as the most powerful hot hatch thats on the market with a brand new lsd... Vauxhall astra vxr 2012 280hp Ford focus rs 2008 300hp And the vauxhall lsd is a knockoff of the fords revoknuckle thingy on focus rs! Hmmm....
  7. Always wave at fellow celica drivers! Not that they wave back
  8. If you find any let me know as I'm after a set too!
  9. Cheers guys. Are there any importers out there anyone can recommend? I've heard of New Era and Googled Japanese Car Importers just wondered if anyone has had good experience with any? Cheers
  10. As the title, do they exist? Just found out my job is secure woo! I could either S/C my T Sport but looking into getting a GT4 just to try something a bit different. Only problem is I want to keep my private plates that start with a T.
  11. Just if anyone needs it for reference the water temp (toyota coolant) in my gen 7 2zzge runs at 85c and the fans kick in at 96c
  12. Haha just wait til he gets burnt off by a sierra cossie! 10 year older car with the same power and no 4wd! That will leave him crying!
  13. Could be a Sticky starter solenoid. Had the same problem with a zetec escort a few years ago.
  14. I'm after one to freshen up the interior of the Celica. I know a member on here used to sell a lot of these, just wondered if they're still about?
  15. The cars up for £6000 which isnt too bad considering it has 40K.
  16. Went with a friend to find him a new car and ended up falling in love with one myself. Sat parked up between a Focus ST and Clio 200 was a Corolla Compressor. What do you guys think of these compared to a normal t-Sport Celica? A few videos on youtube shows that theres not much difference between the two. But it would be awesome to have that supercharge whine. I asked them how much they'd give me for my 53 plate Celica T Sport with 50,000 miles and theyd only give me £3500 I was expecting at least £5000, but maybe I'm being too optimistic. So I'm in a bit of a dilema do I buy the Corolla and privately sell my Celica or just keep the Celica because it's awesome!
  17. The last two cars I've owned I brought from a dealer, a Focus St170 which I never had any trouble with and the Celica i got from a local Honda dealership which has been as good as gold so far. Customer service wise I've been lucky and havent had any trouble with either. Although if the right car was to come up for sale privately I wouldn't hesistate in buying it.
  18. Cheers for the info guys, guess i'll just have to keep my eyes peeled. Definitely prefer the scream of N/A engines to the whistles of a turbo car!
  19. my friend has red corsa VXR and it's neck and neck straight line speed wise. However they are the most unreliable things ever, his is a 08 plate now out of warranty and within two months it needed a new radiator, new a/c compressor new wheel bearing and a new MAF.Apparently there are so many issues of pistons melting (although this is probably down to people putting low octane fuel in them)that he is now looking to sell it on for a Japanese car probably a Type R. Enough said really.
  20. I'm after a mid 90's MR2 just as a little run around. I was wondering if anyone with a 6 gen celica might be able to help me out here as I have no idea about S engines. I dont fancy a turbo one as I've never really liked turbo cars. But dont mind a N/A 3sGE. Would anyone be able to tell me the difference between a standard 3sGE and the BEAMS Redtop 3sGE and, if it's possible to upgrade a normal 3sGE up to a BEAMS? As the extra 30-40 HP would do a world of good, cheers!
