Finally bought a clean GT (140), been searching the last year for a good option (Ireland) been so hard to find something worth the money but found this for a good price, underbody is clean expect a single spot in rear arch to be welded up for road test, 190k miles 2 owners, can’t fucking wait to get this thing going, what mods should I do first?

So I just recently got this Celica to learn manual. I’ve owned other Celica’s on the past but they were all auto and newer. When it was being driven home the battery died (different one that’s in it now) and had to jump it and finish the drive home but that could also be because the battery connections were loose. After this It’s been very inconsistent on if it will start or not.im haveing to replace the connector for the alternator(it was allowing for the actual connections inside the plug to be loose)for the alternator and I’ve also swapped the small 70amp alt or to a 2000 Camry alt from a different 5sFe. Also I was told that the camshaft position sensor plug also need to be replaced because if it’s loose also won’t let car start but it will crank. I’ve assuming it the battery connectors that are the issue because I really can’t think of any other reason why it dosent want to start. But at the same time the previous own apparently drove the car like this for 3 years no issues. I get power in cab and can running every thing electric related. Also I can hear the pump kick on when trying to start. I’ve tryed using the obd1 port but it doesn’t seem to want to out put a code it kinda just flashes rapidly forever I’ve noticed or maybe not but I did sit there and watch it for 2 mins straight and it didn’t pause once. im completely lost here tbh because nothing seems to be wrong ?

Runs great!!

I'm checking for celicas GTS in my country and DAMN, 230k miles and above.

I had a GT when I was younger as a first car, then moved to a SUV because got married, now with a little bit more time and money I would like to buy a GTS but there not many options and a lot of them have a lot of miles on them.

I know toyota is toyota but still I'm a little worried.

That was my old celica btw

Thanks

i love old/older toyotas and have wanted a stick for awhile so i got it all in one, hills r kicking my ass tho and im fucking terrified of burning the clutch(def think i might have a little bit) but so far so good cant wait to see how far i can go with this baby and im even more excited to own a stick

I know I already posted something similar to this awhile ago but I’m planning to buy wheels this week and I have new coilovers coming in tomorrow as well. I’ve moved away from chrome and I’m now leaning towards getting white wheels. I know there a pain to clean but I’m pretty confident I can keep up with it. These are the two I’ve been looking at right now and I was wondering peoples opinions on them and if anyone has any other recommendations.

Just got my 92 Celica and was looking to put chrome 18 inch wheels on it. If anybody has any reference photos of their Celica on chrome wheels please share or just good brands to go with!

I was wondering if anyone here put a red top beams in an USDM ST204 I picked it up the other day and was wondering what you did for the harness I have the engine trans ECU but I’m positive it’s not plug and play any advise on how I should go about the swap mechanically should be pretty straight forward since I can reuse my accessories in three out of 4 engine mounts but the wiring is gonna be my biggest problem

planning to change my rims to stock rims with the big center cap, do you think there will be a notice change? i bought the car comes with this rims and apparently the speed gauge is not accurate i am running 17s and it always +5 at my speedo
