Celica Forums General Discussion General New Celica Owner

Hello to all out there. I have not long bought myself a 2002 Celica 190 for a bit of fun. I was looking for a coupe with some performance, and already having Toyotas, looked to the Celica for, hopefully reliability etc.
The car seems okay for the price with no rust (lots of shopping trolley dints) , seemingly new springs as the labels are still clear on black coils. Interior is clean The lift kicks in properly, and as far as I can tell everything else is fine. I believe the wheels are I have been told genuine Sports pack 17's Tyres are nearly new, but of a cheap Zeta variety. But with only 116000 miles on the clock, which seems reasonable for one of this age, I am looking forward to getting to know more about the model.
On recommendation I have cleaned the MAF and throttle bodies, and been advised to put some of these in. DENSO SK20R11 IRIDIUM SPARK PLUGS. Not sure about OEM or Blitz panel filter. So you see I have made a start on my learning quest but as most of the Google searches about Celicas come up with answers from this site, I thought it was time to register.
Photos attached with guard dog. Lol

Got a 2000 GTS not too long ago and just made my account today so right with you bro haha

awesome looking car + dog, is that a purebred, I love shepards. congrats to you both on your cars, is that the carbon blue one? I purchased a 01 spectra blue one about six months about and i love the car!

I think it's the carbon blue. It essentially looks black, though. Yes, he is a 45kg shepherd. All dog with teeth to match. As soft as you like when he is with us. if not. Who knows? Lol
