I've seen pics of some nice bodykits, and clean-looking showcars and racecars, but are any companies exhibiting any new performance parts for the Celica that are available to the public?

New body kits. Celica's might as well just look for custom done stuff. If we put an H on our hood we miiiiight get some more stuff.

Baer has brakes out for the celica. The EradiSpeed line up.
APR performance has carbon fiber mirrors for the celica that was displayed with the Blitz supercharger. Interesting was the celica was a 2002 model. APR also has carbon fiber bumper flaps to increase downforce at high speeds stabilizing the chasis during hard corning. They as well had their wide body kit.
APC had new retro 3d altezzas. I believe they were called the EuroTec tails.
Arospeed had some interesting products available. For the celica they had a stainless steel header, hi flow cat,
Flex-a-lite had their hi performance flex fans that they say are designed to give you maximum airflow at high RPM.
I believe thats all i recall. I will go thru all of the pamphlets i got and see what else I can find. Hope that helps.

:thumbup:
The reason you see no support mainly for the gts is because the target consumer (6spd gts owners) are very few. It isn't worth the cost to release something for it that wont sell many items. Considering 5% of all 7th gen celica sales are 6spd gts's, that is not a lot. You could question why the gt isn't looked at for more aftermarket but in my opinion it already has much more than the gts will have because it is turbo ready, has a header that produces a decent gain.... there is plenty for the gt so its not really worth complaining about :) I am bored, i have 2 hours to kill before a midterm

Thanks for the info. The header and high-flow cat from Arospeed sound interesting to me. Did they have anymore info on that, like specs, price, release date, etc.?
TRD has a super charger for the 1ZZ. Dunno if it will work for the Celi. Too tired to really ask.

i heard they're releasing it with GM for the Matrix/Vibe, and I don't see why they wouldn't adapt the kit to the Celica GT, which has already outsold both of them due to a 2 year head start, and it's been us who've always been nagging them for FI.
