Any Gen 1-3 members?

[danomac]

Just found and joined this forum the other day, and I see a few posts here and there. Wondering if there's any Gen I - III (RWD) members lurking around? I did see the odd thread here and there...

I have a 1985 GT-S liftback, mostly fully optioned...

When I got it it had:
-Power locks
-Power windows
-Power sunroof
-5 speed manual (W58)
-tired 22RE engine
-a really leaky gas tank
-rust. a lot of it...

Over the years I've been fixing it up... now:
-Fixed the sending unit in the tank, no more leak...
-Rebuilt 22RE, bored .020" over, oversized valves, better cam (forgot the specs )
-Thorley tri-y header, 2.25" piping w/high flow cat to a Wagner mid size muffler (nice noise but not TOO loud.)
-Jim King short-throw shifter
-Added vacuum/boost and A/F gauges for the hell of it
-New brake master cylinder
-New clutch master & slave cylinders
-A CD player! Had the old broken tape deck + eq + subwoofer
-Factory air conditioning, although I found out my donor car's condensor and compressor are shot (well, the entire system used was only $120)
-A LOT of bodywork...

Plans to come:
-Fixing the damn A/C. I hate sweating my balls off in summer
-Megasquirt. Then a supercharger...
-Perhaps electric fans after boost.

Lots of work! Looks really good though. I'm a fan of that year/body style.

More pics please!

I've only got two more pictures, a dark one and one taken on an overcast day. The car needs to be waxed now. I haven't been able to wax it since it was painted in 2008. The overcast day makes it look worse than it really is, and I was using a dying camera at the time (which I didn't know about...)

Yeah, but for an '85, still looks good.

Nice. The GT-S was the pick of the bunch for that shape because it used many Supra bits.
There are only a few RWD Celica members here.
Mine is a first gen '77 liftback.
I also have various manuals, microfiche, brochures, etc for all the RWD models.
Just ask if you have questions.
