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

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!

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 :yes:

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 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.

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...

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

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...

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 :D

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

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

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
