i'm already on classic-celica.com. the car has a 22r in it now, and i have a 20r head to go on it.i was thinking 18rg more for the jdm og factor that performance. i actually like driving the auto, it keeps me out of trouble and is a nice change of pace from constantly shifting. its only the 2nd auto i've ever owned, my 1st was my 1st car, an 80 te72. the only thing i don't liek about it is that its carb'ed. i think it would get alot better milage if it had fuel injection.

It is a SRA car, the RWD celicas didnt get the IRS rear till 83 and lasted till 85 in the GTS model. After that they became Front Wheel Fail!

some small updates. since i drive the car every day i can't tear it down too much, but i did get rid of the cressida wheels for something a little better. but only temporary. test fitted my new lip. and you can see the difference from the ra40 to the ra60 front suspension's.









these are wheels my dad has, they were on my brothers ra65. 14x8 -15 or -22 i think.
