Its the best way as you can make it any colour you like
Yeah she's up for sale, long story but I needed something different to suit my needs. The Celica is massive fun and I'll be sad to see it go as it's made me smile so many times!
-
I just got bored one day and painted it with Orange spray paint.
Buy my celica then you could use all the mods on your car
-
Could get a set of Dezent Motion wheels like I have on my Cougar. They're reasonably cheap to pick up and look pretty cool in black and red.
Still prefer my Celicas multi-spokes though
-
Having owned minis and other old cars that have dreadful handbrakes, I always use handbrake and leave in gear. One of those habbits you just seem to keep.
I even do it when I drive other peoples cars, really annoys them haha!
-
Those would look awesome!
I keep trying to find a cheap set of them for mine, love those wheels so much.
-
I could do with a set of 4x 205/40/17s, cheap and cheerful / partworns are fine by me.
-
Thanks for the warning will stay well away from them.
If you've got the link that would be great mine are pretty old.

Never buy alliminium wheel nuts......they will break and get stuck on and cause you a nightmare!
Stick to steel nuts.....trust me and about 10 other members on this!!!
Damn there goes that idea then. Steel tuner nuts and some orange spray paint...
-
Hey all,
Anyone here had any experience with coloured anodized wheel nuts? I'm tempted by an orange set just to add a little bit of detail.
However, all the sets I've seen are like nearly £50 quid, which seems a tad steep to me but maybe I'm wrong. Are there any cheaper places to get some?
Cheers
-
They are £100 + postage each though
Can't justify spending that much
-
Ok well update:
I won't be buying the Cobra frames any more. They've just mailed me informing the price of the Subframes has now gone up from the advertised £60, to £97! What a joke!
So now back on the look out for some direct fit subframes that don't cost the earth...
-
Ahh not too worried about that.
What and where exactly did u modify?
-
Or the South Africans solution of big f**k-off flame throwers...
-
Yes as been said the 202 and 205 use same front seat subframes.
The cobras will work but i hope your not really tall or have sunroof as you might be sat really high.
Also the cobra frames are not fantastic and dont come with seat belt fixings.
I bought a set for £80 2nd hand and had to modify them to fit my recaros i had in my old GT4.
Money no object the Bride super low seat frames are best.
Also a seller on Ebay called NZKW sells superb bride replica frames - a bit too late for you now but others might benefit from this info
Well will give the Cobras a go at least. If they're too high I will try and source something different, hence why I only bought one as a trial. They're supposed to be "Tailor made to the specific car" but we'll see.
Seat belt mounts are no issue as I've got harnesses fitted.
-
ST202 and ST205 front seat are Definately the same mounting. I personally swapped a set of seats out of a 1.8 and fitted them into a GT4 st205 a couple of years ago.
The rear bench seat is slightly different as the st202 has more foam underneath it to accomodate the different floor plan with the diff tunnel etc.. ( This is no problem with regards the subframes though)
So the frames in the link will fit a GT fine. Trust me
Awesome thanks for that! I've ordered one to see how they're going to fit before I order the passenger side.
The subframes / seats may still need some modding as I've bought Cobra subframes and have Corbeau seats, but the Corbeau Subframes were double the price!!
No need to worry about the back seats, I don't have any anymore
-
Hmm... Calling all 205 owners...
Can someone take some photos of where the seats mount pretty please
-
Damn, was expecting that would be the answer.
Right... better get the welder out then
-
Hi all,
I've got a set of Corbeau bucket seats and my original plan was to custom build some runners / subframe mounts to fit them, however I'm being lazy and trying to get them fitted fairly quickly.
I've found a load of places online that do Cobra subframes for specific cars, however I can only find subframes for the ST205. Does anyone know if the mounts are the same to fit into an ST202?
If not, can I get them or is custom making my only option?
Cheers

Nice wheels, will be a pain to keep clean tho.
^^ This! I have similar on my car in white and I spend more time cleaning the wheels than I do the whole car! Do look awesome though!
-
Holy Moly thats up for a lot of money...
-
Cheers Angus. My googling skills must be vanishing, I tried all sorts of things and couldn't find anything!
-
Its weird, the Castrol Gen 6 was an iconic car, I thought there'd be a kit for it.
-
Anyone know if you can get Tamia / Airfix plastic model kits of the Gen 6 Celica, preferably the GT-four?
I've seen Gen 5 GT-fours and Gen 7s, but never a Gen 6.
Taaa
i come back home and find ..... this

I've ended up buying a Nissan 200sx. I needed a comfy car but still fun to drive so it fitted the bill.
