Thanks guys, I did have a St202 with a 3S-Fe many many moons ago so it may be from that. Anyone need one, other wise the bin will be its new home.

Any Ideas?

Shit man, one thing about having a decent car is 'Women know we love our cars' and find it the easiest to get you that way. My Gen6 was keyed all over by my ex but I had no proof and had to pay for the respray myself so I know what your going through. Sucks but at least you caught her doing it.

Love this thread

Fantastic - Thanks Carlasumm and the boys.

:hysterical: :hysterical: :hysterical: Now you are talking! I want onE!!!!!

Cheers mate - I found this one but no link as to the sound of the damn thing! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PIAA-Sport-Horns-Dual-Tone-Black-400hz-500hz-/270878268980?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3f119a5e34

Cool - I want something that sounds like a foghorn on a ship

Hi Guys, Thinking of changing the horn on the 7 as the standard one is not very 'manly' and sounds like it should be on a Yaris. I found the Renault Laguna ones to be a bit better but wondered if anyone knows af a good mans horn I can try lol

Maybe worth trying to have a look using phone light or something. Hope you get home soon Buddy.

Damn, hope your ok dude. You got recovery?

Yeah those are OEM GTR Headlights, the R35 style ones that a few members on here have are based on these.

Thats what I thought they dwarf the car!

Guess which car these headlights are from!

Sorry to hear this buddy. I wish you a speedy recovery. It is easy enough to get fully comp online daily cover from dayinsure or norwich union very cheaply. CCUK to the rescue!

Totally different beasts mate. As for handling, My first 190 only had Eibach Springs on stock shocks and handled like a dream, im running the same set-up on my Sports-M. The 7 with the Mac set-up is a much much more agile car than any FF Gen6 maybe apart from the Beams ones with Superstrut - Havent driven of those so cant be sure, BUT when you get a 7 with Superstrut thats not shagged I'm sure it would outhandle those too.

I have had 3 Gen 7s all 2zz engined, my first 190 covered 156k before I blew it up as I let the oil get low.. They are not bad at all but I the Gen 6's are overall better built.

Bummer, i was lucky to get mine reasonably cheap. T8BBA

If its power you are after there is a very nice ex-fensport Blitz S/C'd TRD Sports-M Gen 7 for sale on Pistonheads.. I was actually looking for a ST205 before I got my 1st 190 and together with the bad taste of running costs with the 2.5 twin turbo 4WD VR-4 still in my mouth, I thought the 190 was a better financial choice. I agree with the above posts really, the St205 is the ultimate drivers Celica and to get any fun out of it you will burn ALOT of fuel. Im only running a Gen 7 now because im saving money for petrol for my next car

Hi, I have owned a gen 4 GT4 - Gen 6 SS-I, Gen7190 and now the Sports-M - I came to a Gen 7 190 from a 300hp Misti VR-4 Type S and decided that turbo'd 4wd cars are just too heavy on the fuel and expensive when they go wrong as well as much more to go wrong too. I found the trade off between power and fuel economy/running costs was just right and have stuck with the Gen 7's ever since. If you have deep pockets and dont mind shelling out for fuel then I would go for a St205 GT4 but if you want a reliable daily driver that is not too much to run then the 190 is a must! Hope that helps. When I had a Gen6 and the 7 came out I absolutely hated it and then I saw a TRD kitted one and thought that looks sexy. In my eyes then the 7 was not a 'proper' celica as it was US designed and a bit less Japanese than its predecessors.

I have a Ebay/Blitz hybrid Cold Air Induction and have never had a CEL, seems a bit hit and miss for the 7 but there is a Blue Bomber Mod that combats this somewhere on here..

Anyone remember this? Once owned by a friend of a friend at now defunct Kenton Tuning in Bham but would love to know if its still around. Any Ideas??

Will be doing this when i fit my new 50mm Ally Rad - Thanks for the tip Zorg.
