Today was a gorgeous day up in the Northeast, so after I got out of work I washed the car real good to show some progress pics of the silver celi.
Since the first picture I've installed a couple little things like a GReddy SP exhaust, Tein SS coilovers, and added Sirius satellite radio. Changes will be coming soon, so I figured I'd take some shots before any other mods go down. First, teh old pic- ![]() And Today- ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Enjoy. ![]() This post has been edited by Silver94CelicaOwner: May 14, 2006 - 10:57 AM -------------------- 3rd gen ST205 3SGTE - Alive and boosting. |

Word guy.
![]() Thanks for the compliments everyone. I really like the way the drop makes the car look so much sportier than before, let alone the way it handles of course. And yes, I will possibly show even newer pics in the upcoming weeks with the upgraded look. Next on my list of things to do is to get the exterior in order....dustin15brown, the dent you see on the door has been there since i bought the car unfortunately. Theres lots of cosmetic issues that are all going to be worked out very soon. After the exterior I'm finally putting some "go" in this thing. But one step at a time for now. -------------------- 3rd gen ST205 3SGTE - Alive and boosting. |

I heard they are quite hard for normal street use? Is this true? They're pretty harsh at times, especially on heaved concrete or potholes, even on the softest setting. But all in all, its a serious performance upgrade and totally changes the character of the car 100%, you just have to be willing to sacrifice some comfort at times.

Hahaha...."Commer" shot.
![]() Thanks guys, I really do appreciate all the positive comments....especially since you guys all have sick cars yourselves. I gotta say though, I'm VERY happy with the way the car looks right now. It still needs new paint, but otherwise the exterior is almost done. All these most recent shots were pretty illegal though, I was parked right in the middle of a new visitors center in the Delaware Water Gap that isn't even open to the public yet, but I did it anyway with a friend looking out for cops or nosey people. ![]() Art, you nailed it on the head. I used a tripod on my digi cam with low light mode. dustinkemp, I just backed right up to the front entrance of the building, figuring it would make for a really dramatic photo. So its not really inside of it, but tucked back as far as I could into the front entrance. j0e_p3t, you can get stock bumpers cheap, just talk to local members who replaced their bumpers with a kit, or put up a WTB if youre interested. I bought my bumper off Dustin (Batman722) but I don't really know how much for, I payed him all at once for a bunch of parts from him. He's the mother-effing man. ![]() brianforster, the car rides really low now, I'd say its knocked off at least 3 inches, especially in the front. The stock wheels are almost starting to tuck into the front wheel wells....I love the way it looks. Not good for getting an accurate alignment though, but the handling is out of this world. Ride comfort isn't top notch, its definately stiff but you can adjust it to be relatively livable. Thanks again guys. ![]() -------------------- 3rd gen ST205 3SGTE - Alive and boosting. |
