Hi there,
A month ago I have traded my Celica ST205 for 1977 RA28. Car is in perfect shape, currently with 18R engine but over the summer it will be swapped with 18RG. I am really happy with the car, it is my daily driver and works perfect.
Cheers to all 1gen lovers.
Tom

Help needed: I need 18RG timing chain slipper (13559-88230) and damper (13563-88250). Already posted in "Wanted". These will make the new heart beat again. I promise to post big update when the engine and Celi are running together.

I have not realized that it is two years since I have the car. Few things changed, more under the hood than outside.
A teaser for now, more pics will follow after the weekend (track day with 130 other classic cars

One more European, WOW, very nice looking car. We have the same rims, see. 
It is the new engine, isn't it? I have the old and less powerful 2T.

The engine is 18RG with capacity increased to 2.2l - I could not get hold of original pistons for the rebuild, only forged ones for 20R.AntalBalog wrote:One more European, WOW, very nice looking car. We have the same rims, see.

Do you read my mind? After few track days I am considering to go down by 3-4 cm (1.2-1.6") which would also require the springs to be stiffer than stock.toyboyracer wrote:Very very niiiiiiiiiiice !

What do you have? For how much? And why so expensive?
