Ta22 Celica Parts?

[GTAAAH]

Anyone know where a good place to look for celica parts is?

I'm after front quarters, some kind of lip for the front bottom bar, 2 new driving lights and a bit of misc.

have signed up to a few celica forums, and they just say check ebay

there has to be someone who makes aftermarket parts or specifically deals in ta22 celica's

any suggestions would be awesome

i work for a toyota dealer... MIGHT be able to get parts for it still..

[GTAAAH]

oh true, i've called a few dealers in aus and managed to find new weather strips and 1 slightly cracked parking light (which i decided against)

pain in the butt that these are so hard to find parts for

[EJD001]

Just looked at a few parts for the old model... most NLA from toyota or even japan..

id keep an eye out in the trading post if i were u

Have you tried toymods forums?

They seems to have plenty of TA22 parts up for grabs.

Hope it helps

PLENTY of people wrecking TA22's on toymods.net. You're gonna be pretty safe buying off there. Forum needs ALL your details (address, full name, etc) before you can register. Can't view threads without signing up.

Good luck!

that forum takes so long to become a registered user. Just make sure you supply -ALL- details, including mobile number and adress otherwise you will be denied

pics of the Ta22?

Ah ok, i did sign up there yesterday but haven't been aproved yet (i signed on ozcelica about 2 weeks ago and cant post yet either ><)

Heres a pic.. was a $900 car, engines sweet, interiors nice exterior has some dings but a respray and it'll look mickey

nice car, never knew about the old first gen celicas until a friend bought one, i got hooked and bought myself an ra28

I signed up for ozcelica and toymods at the same time (mid feb this year), toymods took 3 weeks to validate and still waiting on ozcelica...

I'm assuming that either a 1ggte, 1ggze or 1jz is going to end up in this?

it better!!!

i can see you are in vic. Sleekaspares in adelaide was the place i went to for parts. They should have what youre looking for.

I had 2 TA22's and a RA23. Also worked on 2 2TG's. One had the T18 bottom end, so more torque. Great little motor, 40mil webber carbs, nice induction.

I dont know if youre keen on getting parts shipped interstate but its an option.

Got 15 grand>>?

My brother had a thing for these cars a while ago, and you can see why... This is his old car that his mate wrote off...

There are still a few parts lieing around if your willing to buy... couple of headlight and suspension bits if I remember correctly... and a 1GGZE and a massive 24psi supercharger...

Old charger

New charger

Eventually he went to a twin turbo set up... Then his mate parked it up the arse of a Mirage...

[m3gtr]

A good old roots supercharger..

very nice car. Shame about the writeoff. What kind of power was it producing?

B45's are always a good choice for that car...

[DRD-00F]

I think with the twin turbo set up, it was making over 220rwkw... that was insane in such a light car...

The charger engine sounded so SO much better though... it was just LOUD zorst noise, rumbled like a bitch! The turbos sounded like some car out of fast and furius...

[m3gtr]

yeah, 220 kw at the wheels in a car that weighs less than a ton is pretty damned scary.

Moral of the story... never let "mates" drive your cars.

[DRD-00F]

Haha oath... this was a few weeks after the same friend snapped the dif at a set of lights coming back from the drags

[Baconer]

bah, dam nice 22 up there, same reason only 1 other person on one occasion has ever driven my skyline in the last 2 years i've owned it. Its not that i don't trust my friends i just dont trust everyone else on the road. Better safe then sorry.

What kind of condition is the 1ggze in?

might as well chuck a picture of mine up

aerial and indicators fixed now, pic from when i bought it

[GTAAAH]

damn nice celica's, hopefully mine will eventually end up looking that good, going to be soft and leave the engine stock though, might put a slightly bigger carby on it (idk if mines wrecked or what but atm you don't get any more power from 3.5krpm and up, it's faster to change gears at 3.5 heh) thats about it, has some extractors so sounds alright.. but who knows, at the moment i wanna use this as a daily, get rid of the gtr and get a bike.

i checked that sleeka spares site out but none of the parts catalogues loads for me, will call them later, looks like a good bet as they specialise in them

thx for the info
