  1. gary , this is the 2zzge (my custom look one one thing i cant understand is why the guy put in a new engine in a 2005 GT, these were the last celicas that also had the same engine as mine in them but other cosmetic differences on the car ie wheels, lowered suspension ,large TRD wing,skirts etc with a 2zge 190 engine in them..
  2. well they did say that the 190 is faster than the 86 lol:)
  3. nice find mate , i found this the other day between the two :
  4. send VVTi a pm as i know he recently got pressed plates from somewhere ....
  5. jim i use ebay for my plates , recently got a square plate for the front
  6. sorry i meant you used to get the maintenance type but now most batteries are sealed units..always go for a heavy duty one
  7. probably on the way out mate as sealed batteries dont last as long as the other types ..ive also owned my celica for 4 years ,4 mths and the previous owner bought a battery for it back in september 2012 as i bought it in october 2012.
  8. as its nearly my big 40 tomorrow my work colleague decided to do this for my desk at work :
  9. no mate i plan to put it dead centre and should look good with the black mesh etc
  10. another small tweak as ive decided to make it look more jap
  11. well as my 40th birthday is aproaching this weekend , my work collegue made this up for me to sit on my desk at work :
  12. Toyboata haha my dirty car (which is hardly ever just trying to get the weather to properly wash it and a barge from yesterday awaiting to go in the canal ..
  13. nice gift from my girl which will be ideal for the car shows next year , i know its a black preface but very close
  14. got a bargain on some oil from opie oils .. got some Fuchs Titan GT1 normally £42 ......down to £24.75 on ebay ,so will be giving it a oil change on saturday morning (man these cars are so easy to do the oil on , easiest car ive ever owned .
  15. i wanted to do that and was going to use a dremel but i left it in the end and you will see how awkward polishing the pipes are compared to the cover ...one way which i found easier was to undo the throtlle bracket as that takes that out of the way so your able to do a bit more working round them .
  16. very nice mate , , does go well..let me know if you need any pointers doing the bling
  17. yep you get your good ones and bad ones ....now ive owned my 53 reg tsport for 4 years and in that time ive had a radiator replaced and a stabilser bar replaced ...now that is a fairly reliable car so far ...i have a few bits on this years advisories but as im replacing the suspension things will be done while thats done and yep there are some areas on the gen 7 that annoys you but i couldnt of picked up a better japanese car for my first jap car
  18. what seems to be the issues your having mate ?
  19. im guessing that certain MOT testers change the rules somewhere , had my setup for the last 4 years and never had a issue with the MOT guys
  20. Four years of ownership today.. And four years of tweaks.. More next year... Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  21. best guy to probably ask would be Kev on here ...he knows his stuff on special editions etc
  22. no you said the bolts you need new ones but flat means do they screw up against a flat wheel surface or is the bolts tapered ie a aftermarket wheel curved surface this is a flat seat toyota nut : this is a tapered :
