When I got the car a few months back that paint had all faded from being left out in the sun for a year or 2... The owner had the car resprayed and didn't put a clear coat on, so a buff made a massive difference. Car also came with a dent which i've repaired poorly... See scratches through the paint! I have however purchased a parts car with a GT4 bonnet and a perfect guard so I will be respraying those in the near future and throwing them on my car.

I've gotten my first car! a 1993 toyota celica WRC Trophy with a 4 speed auto, It cost $400 and has done 273,000 km... How much of a money trap will this thing be? I've already had the engine mounts replaced, I helped replace the passenger side CV joint and i'm having the rear main seal down now aswell haha! i haven't really driven it at all since i purchased it, do they drive nicely? Is the motor any good?
Swapping engine in celica

Doing an engine swap in my celica.... the old 5s in it called it quits... I have swapped an engine in but Its a series one 5s From a 1990 celica and it has a different dizzy and a few different connections... I'll have to change the ecu as the connections are different but i'm assuming my ECT Button and Cruise control will stop working if I do this?
I have no idea how to tackle the different connections... I think the connection from the ecu to the chassis won't connect to the older ECU... I had no idea the car had been changed so much in the facelift
