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

Spacers?

whataboutem?

Does yous sees thems in teh futuor? For teh whitie Ray's? Das yus? 0.o

i think i have decided that new wheels are next years mod. by the time I come up with the cash ( and am still able to have a cushion in my bank account) it would probably be around late fall. Id rather get new wheels in the spring.

SO!


camera equipment it is

I guess I have no choice but to follow you, I talked with my friend and I'm tossing out that idea too I will have to look at the wheels list you sent me and just look T_T

lol


it was "flush"but the fender tabs where rubbing. So I remedied that with some camber. Might cut or roll the tabs and take in the camber

Hey, Tiga!!!! you should come out!!! thi is over in bowie MD not too far south from ya!!! would love to see another 6GC auto-x!!! CLICKY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I may be able to come visit this weekend, I am for sure going to the big CPT meet on sunday, and might possibly be rolling my back fenders on saturday, If not, then I can definitely be there

CPT? info?

if you pound the tabs just remember to take out the screws first dont be like your bro and hammer away forgetting about the screws and now there are pin holes in the fender

Just look up College Park Tuning Mega Meet. There is info about it all over the place, they definitely whored out the meet. Supposedly its a really really big meet.


I will have to do that, I want to be able to pull the camber more positive, Im getting slight slight toe in with my camber and its decreasing my steering response.
I have my dampers at max hardness so thats keeping them from rubbing too much

oh yeah.. great!!! yeah ive been to that one once, like 4 years ago.. great mix of cars... hope to be able to make it..

might as well take out the splash guard bro and spray rubberized under coating. so you can flatten the fender as much as possible. I'll be doing that soon once my dad lifts the ban on the welder

My spash guard pretty much cut itself out, haha. Or at least the tires did . Soooooo much better when you flatten the fender, it was super annoying rubbing every single time I took a turn.

YUP! every bump and sharp turn comes the harsh....im not even sure how to describe the sound or anything to compare it to

yulp. the more people the marrier!! hahah . but seriosly it sucks this guy will be doing his fenders soon!!

Yep, and passengers are quite literally freaking out (when you just HAVE to be driver, lol).

great (but short) time meeting you and your brother!

spotted.

!!!
I missed you! A few 6gc owners congregated around my car towards the end of the show. Why no celica from you?
