Solutions:

A) Stock suspsenion
B) Coilovers
C) Springs with less drop than your current
D) learn to drive low rider style biggrin.gif

i wanna go with D, but its impossible because i live ina bump zone and those things are huge frown.gif

your doing it wrong, you wanna go down not up...... but as far as lifting it..... no idea, i mean hell throw a tundra frame under it and monster truck it around that would be kinda cool

A HUGE thanks again to everyone smile.gif Went on vaca and it was nice to come back to some love for the celi biggrin.gif lol

And I cant wait till CSP!

the candy was absolutely the hardest part! but as long as you take your time and are able to envision it per say (and trust yourself, panicking is the worst thing!) it will come out good.

It is... textured? kinda with the paint system I used for people that may look into it, its smooth but not like single stage, idk how to explain it exactly but it looks awesome and I am in love with my celi even more smile.gif Just hope the cops back off! lol


very nice job!!!!!!!!!!!!! ur car looks awesome, i love the body kit ( i have the same one biggrin.gif ). just one thing i need to ask, how much paint did u used??? and once again, very nice job!!!!!

I am not sure yet, as I hit a snag doing my k-frame this wknd, and havent started painting. But I got 3 quarts of each paint (primer, base, candy, clear). But I am not painting my hood which is a big portion, so I would say a gallon to be on the safe side ya know? this wknd I will be painting im pretty sure smile.gif

I should be updating this thread shortly, just a matter of having people help me lol, hate not having a car because when i need something.... I cant freakin get it! and my parents work alot so its hard to get rides, like now im only 2 bolts away from getting my celi done....but I have to wait till tomorrow! ugh:(


well, i'll love to see pic of the painting when its done! laugh.gif an what grid of sandpaper did u used? sorry to bother u with my questions biggrin.gif

- make sure everything is done right in the beginning. all of the flaws in sanding, and filler work will show if not done correctly.

- the environment in which you paint will change how close to the car you spray. make sure humidity is down!

- wet sand and buff the final product!

painting is a daunting task. it is amazing how great, or terrible paint can look. if you do it yourself be sure to research. good luck hope everything turns out well!


do you know how much paint is needed to paint the whole car??? laugh.gif

Thanks for the support smile.gif
I do want to get a 6gc decal, I just dont know where Im doing to end up putting it yet frown.gif Its a tossup between the bottom right rear windshield, or somewhere on the new side skirts?
I may buy one or two soon, just so I have them ready. Im also buying other decals, but those are a secret project tongue.gif

The progression will start very soon, the CF hood comes tuesday, and the supra side skirts come wendsday, and then I can start molding them. then after that I am ready for paint... ugh hate waiting on shipping, im sooo eager to get out there frown.gif As its been almost a month for both items to be shipped and make it to me frown.gif


nice job so far !!!! im also going to paint my celica but the color i chose is the royal sapphire pearl, just like the supra! anyways, i want to ask u how much paint is nedded to paint the whole car???
