cookci Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Mine is the Generation 7 TRD Sport M and my Girlfriends is the Gen 6 Beams SS3. I miss the supra to death TBH although my new sport M is definately faster to around 100 its just not smooth like the supra! What you think?

ShamelessTT Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Aww bless hehe, both white with dark wheels. Do you were the same colour clothes when you go out too? J/K Nice cars, look great in white i agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookci Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 Oh, a caliper seizing on a new car? Are they going to repair it/cover the price of a new one? After several attempts i think ive managed to repair/refurb it. Haven't had any trouble since ... fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 how'd you mean everything ok? your processor arrived? They have a bit of a reputation, just wondering if things have improved, your car seems to have body panels that fit and it's all one colour No sign of the processor as yet, will give you a shout and leave iTrader feedback as soon as it does.

cookci Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 the car did need a bit of TLC and still does TBH. They gave me a lot of money for my laguna though... as much as what i paid 6 months earlier He didnt even look at it. The MOT, tax and tyres all gone up for renewal and the windscreen developed a crack lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Curious, how much did you pay for it then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbonut Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 They're both tidy looking cars. I never warmed to the gen 7 but the kit suits it well. The wheels seem to disappear into the arches though Have you thought about white spokes and a polished lip? just my 2p worth Lx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADL Mark Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 That looks really nice. All stripped out in the back? Have you thought about white spokes and a polished lip? Oooh no no no! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 looks awesome mate. white cars rule ps what's the performance figures like then? interested to know, especially if you think it's faster than the supe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookci Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 there are no published figures for it. I think the standard celica 190 does 0-60 in 7.2seconds but people reckon thats a little underestimated. the sport M has many extras but a few that might help the 0-60 are TRD suspension, TRD clutch (its a bitch to use), LSD, lightened (sound deadening etc removed as standard), extra welding, strut braces etc. The engine is modified by TRD too and are quoted to have an extra 10BHP and around an extra 10Lbft of torque. Mine is completely standard so far... wheels are on the menu. I havent stripped it out yet, i think i just had the seats down to carry a box!! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazboy Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Looks good in white, lose the headlight brows and stick a UK front plate on it and that is sorted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADL Mark Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Yours has an aftermarket kit on it, even the TRD M didn't come with the skirts, splitter and rear quarter. Fensport had one a while back - http://www.fensport.co.uk/fensportcarsfiles/CelicaTrdM.htm, got some more details on the engine there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
