6G Celicas Forums

First I want to thank the 6G gods for providing this thread as it makes me feel special and also makes me feel good to show what ive done to my car haha =p

Well being that I am very excited to have my car finally I am very happy to be able to start a thread, although this build will be slow due to school bills and such but I am doing my best trying to get parts here and there when I can.

To start I got the car for $750USD; it needed an alternator and tune up so that took some money away from some things I wanted to get off the bat. So far I have mainly done visual modifications and performance in between =)

Things I plan to do:
-fix rust
-re paint
-new wheels 15" GT
-tint windows
-led gauges
-new muffler
-new head unit with speakers
-replace hoses. lines, and parts as needed
-lower (maybe)
-rebuild+turbo


More to come =)

I can't give you an official answer but I feel that given our cars dont need so much air, as long as you get a straight pipe from the box to the intake and put in a "better" filter it will be best. I got my intake for free and I had just got my car so I wanted to put it on as soon as I had a chance.

Side note: I've got a few things coming in this month so progress will be slow till later this month =D

with most any N/A car it really doesnt matter the kind of intake or exhaust you have. i mean they sound and look alot cooler, but theres really only so much the engine can do on its own.but looks pretty sweet, keep us posted

What could it be =p

So I picked up a Pioneer DEH-1300MP for $40 and installed it today =D

Before


After





Not the best picture but wanted to show how it looked at night (looks much better in person)

Well stopped at my local dealer today and got myself a master key made. After that got some free speakers to replace my broken front ones.

I know they are not good but they were free and I still havent found ones that fit my budget that I like

Mind you I didnt put the box in the car just the speakers lol

nice job inside the car !! really, i like the white , its cool

So after reading calijeff's thread about fog lights, it got me into gear and I just ordered a set of yellow round halogen fogs...as well as a pair of pioneer speakers for the back. I will be posting picks when they come in and installed...so excited =)

Link to that post?

here
I've just been wanting fog lights for a while now and I'm starting to winterize the celi so I got a set that seem to be just what I was looking for =)

So I got home and say that my speakers came in. out of excitment I quickly installed them and they sound loads better than the old beat up stock ones. Im very happy with them =)

Nice pioneers I put in a pair of 6X9 in the back and they fit just fine!

wha?

LoL i edited Thought i was in the Today I thread...

lol, i figured something like that happend. yea Ive delt with pioneers fir a long time and they make solid products for the price so I couldnt say no

Got my fog.lights in today and did a quick install. I still am not sure where I want to.put the switch but for now Im happy :-).

they are small sized and so much in the center, i would rather put them more outside , like the gt4, but that have its own style, looking ok

I want to put them more outside but I need longer screws because there are screws on the bumper that are in the way

okay so before we get some snow(so ive heard) I re adjusted my fogs farther apart. After I get tires for the back Im going to be getting 3k HID's for the fogs to help out.

I wasnt sure where I wanted to put the fog switch. It was by the pedals before and I was getting in one day and snapped the bracket holding it in place. So finally had some time and with some thought I figured I would hide the switch to keep the interior clean :-).

That square block where you drew a square (looks like you were thinking of putting it there) is where I put mine.
