kevinkyang's "The Celica" [new pictures] Edited

Re: kevinkyang's

about time you got something up. starting off strong. you know you should get some aw11 mr2 3 spoke wheels and the gt-s rear wing off a coupe. lower it and get the obx headers. and did the clear corners come with the car or did u get those off ebay?

 

Re: kevinkyang's

oh and we will have to get you a gt-s strut bar and the side skirts

 

Re: kevinkyang's

the ones you have are the euro lights, if you mean the solid orange ones, i def. have a set with your name on it

 

Re: kevinkyang's

hey mate
glad to see you made it on here (from memory you were waiting for approval).
the lights look good man glad to see you got them all sorted.
good luck with her and keep us updated.

 

Re: kevinkyang's

i think thats the JDM ones that pop out alil bit, the euros are what you got and what i got, and then the orange guys are USDM

 

Re: kevinkyang's

i think the obx headers are smog legal. some one else can verify this for sure though, I hope.

 

Re: kevinkyang's

only if you like canadian orange ahahaha

Re: kevinkyang's

the jdm and euro corners are prity much the same. The JDM's have a slightly darker indicator than the euros.
As for the fatter ones that depends on whether they are pre or post faclift.
pre- the indicator bulks out from underneath the parker section and also has a bulge in the indicator section on the outer side.
post- is flush/ flat the whole bar the thin rubber dividing strip.

 

Re: kevinkyang's

Just when you think you've seen everything........

Looks like an early (85-86?) Corona 2dr with Celi 88 facelift front end???
Summbody's been a-swappin and a de-chromin on that car!
I'm guessing it has window winders?

Where are you? - OZ
What colour is the interior?, looks like it has the same Corona type seats fitted in my 86.

Those indicators look like JDM's to fit the 89 grille, so that's correct. The pre-facelifts had triangles sticking out the sides and a step to match the grille
Your repeaters look like the flat euro types, mirrors look like USDM solids
Looks like you also have a bad case of crappy boot hinge syndrome - common on this model

ps. here's the 87 JDM Corona GTR 3SFE I sold for $1 - It had 5 bolts, strut brace, spoiler etc and similar seats with HEAPS of chrome, electric windows and folding mirrors . 14 owners later it just wasn't worth fixin. Before yous go Gimme, those indicators are parks, the real indicator is in the bumper like a st182 - which could explain why the Celi indicator and repeater are right next to each other.

The upmarket version sold till 89 and was called the Corona VX, it had the 3SGE and black leather as well as a black grille. It was replaced by the Curren which was a booted version of the st182, similar to the convertible as was the case with the st162.

 

Re: kevinkyang's

black hoof, lights, a,b pillars, black roof, black deck lid and spoiler, body white, w/ red pearl..

 

Re: kevinkyang's

Now do a two-tone along the side like on corollas, or AE86s as you call them.
