Description
Toyota celica TRD sportsM
Number 514
This is a very rare and beautiful car handmade in Japan there has only been 1200 made and today very few remain.
I've been a proud owner of this car for 8 years and taken very good care of it, I've always been a celica enthusiast owning many before this one and I would like to see it go to a fellow enthusiast who will look after it and have just as much enjoyment as me.
The sportsM is a TRD tuned version of the celica super strut or GTS the main differences between them are;
1)TRD tuned ECU (more aggressive fuel map)
2) Reinforced chasis (spot welded on the A frame and rear frame)
3) Full TRD suspension ( coil, damper, front sway bar )
4) Rear 2 point mounted strut bar
5) TRD Sports meter
6) TRD short shifter
7) TRD cat back exhaust
8) TRD steering wheel
9) TRD alcantara seats
10) Unique TRD body kit
11) LSD
It's running at 200bhp and 188N/ M tourqe with no modifications to the engine, i have only used premium high ocatain fuels (shell Vpower, BP ultimate) and only used premium oil (castrol magnetic).
Modifications I have made are;
1) Maxton design front splitter and side skirts
2) genuine 18" Rota alloys professionally sprayed gloss black with blue fleck
3) Nankang semi-slick tyres
4) Moshimoto performance aluminium wheel nuts
5) EBC yellow stuff brake pads on the front, EBC red stuff brake pads on the rear
6) black coated vented and grooved brake discs all round
7) HID headlights
8) Custom stainless steel back box (I Still have the original TRD backbox)
9) Rear fog light conversion to comply with UK law
10) Full lcd display pioneer stereo
11) undercarriage has had full rust protection to help against British road weather.
The paint work is in good condition with some age related marks, as to keep the paint original. All stickers and badges are orginal and have age related marks. I have taken the orginal rear TRD badge off because unfortunately they get stolen very often but I do still have it. It has been professionally detailed regularly (clay bar to polish and wax, engine bay to full interior and undercarriage). I have kept it mostly in storage and only drive it during the summer months.
MOT history is not in full due to being in storage some years. There is no service history as I do all full servicing myself every year (I don't trust garages by me to do a genuine job unfortunately)
If there is any further questions about the car please get in touch, all viewings are welcome and I can provide additional pictures/ videos. Open to offers.
Thank you for readingThe best attribute about this car is the way it drives, it feel amazing to be behind the wheel it was designed and tuned to be a track car. With the TRD suspension and strut bars its great in the corners. The engine is definitely a screamer with very high revs, at 6000rpm the cams lift open and pulls you all the way 8500rpm, with the short shifter and correct gear timing you can stay in lift through all gears and is garenteed to put a smile on your face.
