I have owned this car for about 18 Months, when I first bought it it was 100% standard, having been owned by an old man since being imported into New Zealand. When I got the car it had only run 95,000 kms! It is in very good condition, although it does have the odd scratch and bump that you would expect! Unfortunately I don't have any 'before' photos, just the 'after ones to show! I have lowered it, with KYB Type SR Special shocks, and aftermarket springs. The wheels are SSR Formula Mesh, 15x8 on the front and 15x9 on the rear. I have stretched 185/65/15 tyres on the front, and 195/60/15 on the back. Here are some pictures I took recently:     It is a really great car, and I am in the planning stage of what to do to it from now on..... any suggestions?  |

HI 100% retro  I can see this being popular here. |
| |
 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts |

Thanks for the warm welcome.

unfortunately not... it has a 1G-EU hence engine swap is high on the list of priorities!
It is still nice to cruise in but a little more power would not go amiss!

veryy cool, i love the 2 tone Thanks.... I love it too! I am really keen to give her a panel and paint, to tidy up the few little rough bits that she has (not many thankfully). So that may be happening in the near future hopefully! I will keep the two tone though! |
