My daily driver bought in 2006. Originally beige, with tan interior, a 12R engine and 4-speed column shift.

I had it repainted in 2-pack white, but then the engine died. After a bit of looking around for a new engine, it got a 1UZ conversion ;)

About RetroJDM

This all got started when I purchased a couple of JDM brochures for my RA28 Celica. I'm now completely obsessed with old Japanese cars. Basically, if it's Japanese and had chrome bumpers, I love it!

You may have noticed there's no longer an online store. I've made all the sticker source files available for download. Feel free to print your own, make T-Shirts or whatever :)
