  1. If you dont need the shell, Hi-Ab it to where you want it.
  2. gutted to see this Martin! there are some real bawbags out there.... Duct tape is probably the best covering for any holes in the interim, I know cars that have had duct tape on them for over 6 months..... Sickening to think you will have to spend so much repairing the damage when you are innocent.
  3. my tuppence for what it's worth, if you have a clean low mileage 190, you will at some point regret selling it, Agreed that the thought of having a 4wd monster will tickle in all the right places. think with head rather than heart. Unless that is you have lots of free cash....... Ideal situation is keep the 7 and buy a GT4. look at it this way, in 5 years time which will have served you better?
  4. would that not affect the cat? (assuming you have one!) as with Slick 50 when that came out, I have reservations as to whether this works, but I am sceptical. I was always in the check the water and change the oil regularly camp. she now has over 170,000 miles and pulls like a train. may be interesting to take the engine apart once I swap it out.
  5. on the few occasions that I do post anything, took it to the Post Office, so would presume Parcelforce. Everything gets there and its insured!
  6. Today I drove into a car park with quite a long approach road, there was a group of young guys in Hondas and I just happened to park near them. the best comment ever 'Don't like Celicas man, but that thing looked f**ing awesome coming down the road' That my friends is a win!
  7. Either you think I misspelt 'sit' or you think it looks like a drug dealer / pimps car..... lol and for clarity, I am neither a drug dealer, pimp or have accidental bowel movements... Just thought I had to clarify!
  8. feel for you bud, these things are a big part of the reason mines is rattlecan. recently spent £5 respraying the rear end (in a layby) having a shiny pride and joy ruined by others just gauls me! Will admit however, I dont believe mine warrants an expensive and fancy paintjob! so therein lies the difference!
  9. lucky one that bud, had the same thing happen to me on the way to Blyton except mine had stripped the threads so I couldn't even swap the bottom bolt to the top to let me 'limp' on. was 140 miles from home and had just pulled off the motorway.... lot to be said for engine braking. my mate stripped the front corner from his girlfriends ST and drove all the way down to swap it over (yes I did a trackday with 3 Drilled / grooved GT disks and one standard ST front!)
  10. at the rate those gen 7 boys go through oil, I can understand it......
  11. Was aware of the Celica for years, but in 1994, saw my first Gen 6. I absolutely loved the sleek curves. Post second marriage break-up, decided to buy 'a car i'd like' rather than 'a car I need' And The Mistress was born... Still think the Gen 6 is one of the best looking cars ever made and love driving her
  12. the drinks holder is really impracticle on a gen 6. 'bout it really! all good otherwise
  13. well done bud, was contemplating your SSIII myself and saw that car on Gumtree also I think, will the new owner be coming into the fold? Looking forward to new build thread on the 185!
  14. Happy Anniversary celicamojo!

  15. Although not strictly a physical part of the car, my favourite part is the respectful looks I get from those who see her (which still surprises me) second to that, my favourite part of the car is the part that keeps her tight and exiting........ the coillies
  16. never saw the second part of that the first time I read it, the fat German bird in the caravan next to me was giving me funny looks when I tried to get her to lie on the car.....(I'll put it down to a language barrier...) Hmmm need one of Dads chickens and some duct tape.........
  17. Oh! dealership in Aberdeen! Hmmm..... would be next weekend before I could get it on here however....
  18. years ago my mum got a Mitsibushu Lancer that belonged to a butcher shop. As usual I had the job of cleaning out the car. Lifted the spare wheel out and it was literally live with maggots. The car had been used to transport meat.......
  19. last year I did contemplate looking to find a mint gen6 in Japan and bring her over here, but the total costs at the time were astronomical and that was before I even found a specific car. One day this will be feasable, but probably more so if importing multiple cars! no-one on here would probably pay the equivalent of £3K for a 6 unless it was a GT4 (except me....) I need to win lottery.......
  20. and mibbies round the body off a bit and fit quad light.........
  21. TBH It doesn't specify this Celica Club, although this is THE Celica Club, I could join with some of the local Gen 7 Hairdressers (ooops did I say that out loud!) and form a local 'Celica Club' We must however have people in Wiltshire who know this car? looks like there has been shitloads of money spent, but as with all modifieds, its personal taste. A breaker with some imagination would probably make something from this (if there were any left...lol)
  22. Sorry, but my car is allergic to Fords......
  23. 5 studVW wheels fit a celica, so do a bit of homework and you may strike a bargain. As with most things. popularity can dictate aftermarket prices, which is why you can buy bolt ons for a civic for the price of a fish supper... research can provide bargains, but can also bring heartbreak
  24. checked mine, it was full... Due to bodykit, I can only jack from ful-lon front or full on rear and even with a flat tyre and parked in a muddy ditch on a single track back road from hell.... it went under and did the job. That is all.
