6G Celicas Forums

after a long (in my eyes) hiatus from June 2012, finally back on the road





So here is the story of my celica.




so i dont get to ramble on too much, lets start out with the first picture i took of my car back in 2006 when I got her.


the first mod that i did was my JL speakers all around. nothing special. i wasnt too much into the whole 6gc scene until a little bit after.

i then stripped the hub caps and started putting every sticker i found on that car!







then i had finally gotten into the 6gc scene and started to mod her. first things first, a $70 weapon r intake from a fellow member. needless to say i felt badass installing it seeing as how it was my first mod.

after that came exhaust, a nice n\' rare SP1




THEN TRAGEDY STRUCK!
i had thrown a rod and my car was up for about 3months, saddest moment ever!


after all was said and done, i got a new rebuilt block.

the day it was back on the road


this is the first pic i took with my new camera



Then after not having it for a while i wanted to get her gifts, thus leading us into the...
BAD IDEA PHASE







end phase


then i put on my XS auto headers the NIGHT before i was leaving for my freshman year of college. ended up rushing and cutting to hastily and had a bad exhaust leak. and a lil bit after put heat wrap on the rad tubes
also i got one of the limited DCR 3points




then after a month or so, my engine quit on me while cruising around pittsburgh. had to tow it back home to the shop the block was built at in philly. ended up being a bad head gasket.



then i just started buying stuff while at school and putting it in

No racism intended at all. I respect people as persons. Just a joke on having energy after napping, really...

Indeed, and I'll say they are quite neck and neck. Next time I'm in Maryland, I'm looking for a Burger Joint. :thumbs:





Well, that's never gonna die now. Look what you started Mike...

Will you ever be getting a full set of those wheels, or was that one just for spare purposes only? I'm interested because I was really considering getting those same ones and I wanted to know what they looked like on the car.

Heck no. Spare only.
If I get the chance sometime (probably wont be until the end of next month)
I will pop the spare on to see what it looks like on the car. The offset is pretty low as compared to the Gram Lights so with the 25mm spacers, its going to poke out quite a bit haha

RabidTRD filmed me leaving Dustins house

Ive been meaning to do a video of the new exhaust. This will hold me over for a little while

how much lighter are your wheels vs the sparco one?

6 or 7 i believe

What were you using for a camera/rig?

iPhone 5 with iOS 7 on HDR. The video looks like **** when uploaded because Facebook compresses it. I'll upload stuff to photobucket later and see how it comes out. I've got an interview/video in Cam's 3S-GTE coupe too.

got new kicks for my first race this sunday
and now have finally rid the car of the Fuzion tires



havent really messed with them too much, they are my first bridgestone tires and all i have to compare them to is the now discontinued Dunlop Z1 Starspecs which have now been replaced with Direzza ZII's
Just thought Id try a different brand but I believe next summer I am popping on a pair of ZII's

That upskirt porn shot of the diffuser is the stuff of dreams, Mike.

The new kicks look pretty good.

Where is your race?

lolololol upskirt

you nasty
but thanks



Fedex field on sunday yo
