>i love my hatchback, the coupes look to short, i think the hatchbacks look nice cause it looks sexier! and you can take your back seats out within like 10 minutes

you can take the rears out on a coupe in 10 as well....probly less if you know what your doing.....i know. now the headliner is a different story....and rear struts too.

>So what exactly attracts you guys to the "curren" look? When I see a curren photo I am quickly reminded of a nissan 240.


You're right actually .. That might be why lol, I reckon the Nissan 240/Silvia are nice looking cars, Curren is kind of similar so it's a nice looking car too.

Prefer a Celica though, obviosuly tongue.gif

Agreed. You have my second-favorite coupe on the site, after Coomer's...you guys might be tied, actually, because I like your exterior more.

Thanks guys for the compliments. smile.gif It was Coomer's car that originally inspired me to do what I did and since then have been fond of owning my 6gc. Currently i'm thinking about installing new components for the brake system but that will have to wait till im done with my deployment.

to my best knowlegde thr coupes were made for only 2 years, 94 and 95. i dont believe they were a real popular car at the time which could b why they stopped making them. how ever i LOVE my 95 GT coupe! its so different from what you normally see around my area (all honda..gayy..)

i cant wait to drop my st205 in my coupe hehe biggrin.gif

st205 powered ss3 coupe
I think coupes were made up until '97 or '98. I don't really remember which. Either way, I've personally owned a '96.

see now i have to disagree with that. maybe u owned a late model 95 that was made at the end of the year so it transfered over to a 96. BUT.... if you go the the members ride section and u kno how u can look up cars by yr, model, style and tranny? well if you type in GT coupe for any year other then 94 or 95 you get like 4 or 5 hits for each yr "saying" they are coupes when they are actually hatchbacks. look it up and see, i mean i could b wrong but i dont think i am bc wouldnt u think with the number of memebers on this forum there would b a ton of coupes from "96-98" ? im not tryin to get cokcy or anything im just giving my opinion and reasoning lol

I'm not saying that my source is reliable or anything... It was definitely Wikipedia. But the coupe that I parted out was indeed a '96. Had the facelift bumper ('96+) and a title for a 1996 Toyota Celica coupe. Plus the member that posted earlier, 96ST206, had a '96 coupe with a Curren conversion.

Found the article. They made coupes until '96 and discontinued them an 1997. http://www.topspeed.com/cars/toyota/1970-2...ry-ar16094.html

By the way, you're never in chat anymore! Don't be afraid to show up once in a while and update us on your swap haha

Haha no worries. I was wrong too. I thought they made them until '98. And your status is the same as all the rest of us. But yeah, log into the chat sometime.
