I've had the car since december 09 but because of the rod knock i didnt drive it much until june when i sold my honda....I never really worked on it until september when I was rear ended. The damage was minor but left my bumper looking tacky...it was a quick fix and the insurance money went towards the new motor.

i bought used springs but decided to have a little fun and cut em down a little bit lol

after doing a little research on celicas the potential for this car sky rocketed and so i invested in some rim...

Looks good, i think the interior is missing something when its all black. too dull for the celica
Does ur stereo have rca IN, in the rear? you should use those to plug in stuff like an ipod instead of the front aux spot. Just my opinion, i hate the cord running down the front, bugged the crap out of me when I used to have it

I like that interior painting man.

I've only had the Celica a few days..Could you tell me how to take that trim off the center dash section so I can paint it?

Posted by: chacha Dec 25, 2010 - 8:00 PM

pull it out...the shift trim first then the rest.

Posted by: Mycurse180 Dec 25, 2010 - 11:57 PM

thinking about changing my interior color scheme..

Posted by: eboz74 Feb 4, 2011 - 4:44 PM

after about of hour of measurements and cutting its almost ready

Posted by: mkernz22 Feb 4, 2011 - 4:53 PM

my word of advice would have been to run it out into the fender and then down through. reason is that it would be farther from the engine.
it's looks pretty sweet though! battery relocation?

next pay check lol its in the way but i started running it into the the fender but got frustrated trying to get the wheel well cover off and the rest of my stock intake out.....its like 8 degrees out here so it was something quick but come spring it will be relocated

that's understandable lol
i was installing my new fog lights in the same degree weather and my hands were numb as hell haha
the only thing I didn't put on the aftermarket wires I was running was the cover, which makes it look neater, but i could have cared less at the time
