PHOTO COULD NOT BE FOUND

[Guest_Matthew_*]

it's the same photo as my sig. It's also on my profile with a couple other ones. As for my intercooler, I hit a deer about 2 months ago and it screwed up the bumper and the intercooler, the radiator and the right bright headlight. Since I just bought a 6th gen gt-4 front clip I will possibly use the top mount intercooler on the engine, or the one that I got for a 99 eclipse since they are approximately the same size as our cars.

there are no pictures of any of the stuff i asked for in your profile...and why would you downgrade from the HKS intercooler to a stock top mount and risk heat-sink? and i wanna see the HKS turbo you got on the stock 5s engine..it's quite intriguing.

hey man, i was checking out your profile... i didn't know that TRD made a rear strut brace, or swaybars, or bushings. where did you get that stuff?

also, is that a pic of your trunk in your profile? also, what's the trim and A/R on your turbo?

[x_itchy_b_x]

yeah man hook us up with sum photos of the turbo and body kit and stuff

yea i got the rear brace for a supra and I had it modified to fit my car, about the bushings and sway bars I got them as a closeout item at www.trdracing.com Yea that is a picture of what the box LOOKS like.

as for pics with the body kit and stuff I am looking through all my disks. I don't have a digital camera yet. I used my gf's parents cam. As for pics with the turbo and under the hood and stuff. I am kinda in the same position that neverstop is. My engine is currently out of the car. Cuz I am doing the 3S-GTE swap and AWD conversion. I will post a pic of what it looks like with the body kit as soon as I find the cd.

Yea that is a picture of my trunk, my car used to be silver then somebody keyed all over it and I had the whole thing repainted a different color cuz they're are too many silver cars out there.  And the lights around the subs are the same color as the outside of the car.  They used to be blue but the shop that did that box for me only had blue when I got the box so I used them.

that's not what i meant. i mean the trunk in the pic is not a celica trunk. our tails do not look like that and the shape is not correct, for either the coupe or hatch. period. not your trunk.

also, i have every TRD catalogue that exists from the US, and several from japan, and they have never made sway bars for the 6th gen... I wish they had, but they didn't. and man, the TRD coilovers are like a grand for each ONE! very very pricey, and you can only get them from Japan. Where do you order from when you import your parts? Where did you get your 3S-GTE Clip?

Sorry not meaning to flame or anything, but really, if you haven't done a lot of stuff to your car, it's OK! No one cares. I however, (and others) do care about people BSing, I really just don't see the point.

until you show me pics, I'm sorry, there are just too many inconsistencies with your posts. like for instance, if your car used to be silver, why did you get it repainted a stock toyota color? Did you take your body kit off for the winter, or did you hit a deer with it?

Pics will convince me, that's about it. I really like your car, it's really clean, and even if you haven't modded the hell out of it, it's still a great car. I know, I have one too, and I absolutely love it. Please post some pics and prove me wrong.

[Guest_Matthew_*]

when i took the body kit off for winter I hit a deer and it ruined the front bumper and the intercooler, etc. I got the bushings from poweredbytoyota.com and I did get the sway bars themself from poweredbytoyota.com They are suspension techniques.

[x_itchy_b_x]

im not doubting u that u have this stuff. well yeah actually i am, but no biggy if u dont. i just wanna see sum pics man it sounds wicked nice. take a pic of the body kit off the car or something to show us. im not flamin dont worry

[Mynzeyes]

if someone wanted pictures of my car like this, and i actually had it, i'd go out there right now and find a camera, i'd get someone on the phone w/ one, and take the pictures RIGHT NOW. but, however, if i didn't, i'd keep making up excuses and buying myself time. i wouldn't care if the engine is in or out or what, but i'd prove people wrong.

-John-

[Mynzeyes]

and as charlie said, that picture in your profile is obviously NOT a celica. i don't buy that your celica was silver before, but if so, that's great. but if this is your celica...explain the picture and what is circled please:

dude, just tell us you're lying, we won't hold it against you. otherwise, keep your story straight, and produce proof. i personally wonder why someone would do a swap when thye have so much done to an 5s...and, are you gonna sell all that stuff to someone?
-John-

[Guest_Matthew_*]

i said that is what the box looks like. Not that that is it. Why do you guys have to doubt everyone? You even doubt neverstop on his AWD conversion. Why can't you just wait until he is done? Does it really matter that much to you what my car looks like? I mean, charlie, I am doubting that you have MR-2 t-tops. Let's see some pics. Right now. It's not that i don't believe you, it's just that there are no pics to back up your story. It's all good though. You guys are entitled to your own opinion. And I would go out and get a digicam but like I said b4. The engine isn't in my car. My job is like 2 blocks away.

it's just dumb to make all this up, and iono but i like to document what i do, i like pictures of progress. but it's just really shadey about all this. you have pictures of your car now, but conveniently you don't have any of all this stuff that you "have". but you brag about it. and it started off as me just wanting to see it, but the inconsistances in your story are making me not believe you. i know it can be done, but, you're just being shady about it, like editting your posts to change the brands of stuff, and not answering questions about the trim of the car in that picture.

once again, i didn't doubt you at first, but, it's just fishy.

this getting kind of rediculous. I know that it may seem dumb to do the engine swap, but there are a few reasons for this. 1st: since I lost my intercooler i can no longer run that high of boost. 2nd: I also can't really race that well cuz when I slam on the gas I just peel out for a bit and I get a crappy start. 3rd:I have an automatic and I want a stick. 4th: All wheel drive will give me better starts for racing. And save money on tires cuz I am not peeling out anymore. I am not going to get rid of the 5s-fe turbo cuz I have a guy I know working on a twin turbo concept. I that it may sound weird but it is worth a try. I WILL post pictures once I get my car done.

[Mynzeyes]

now you don't have the pic of the sub setup in your profile...and you changed your mods...
do you see why you are shady now? or do we have to point it out more?
ok look. i am ASKING you to prove me wrong.
PLEASE prove me wrong.
-John-

[x_itchy_b_x]

OK man you profile says that "this is of the trunk" it dont say this is what my trunk LOOKS like.
and why dont u have one picture of ur car that shows mods. not one?

[Guest_Jason_*]

I got 3 20" Subwoofers from Alpine in the back seat, with 2 2000w Amps from Sony. I'm rocking a 52" TV Screen on my roof... man is that stuff hot. I have a (1100hp) tri-turbo Supra Engine bolted up to my Celica right now with a top mount IC and a front mount IC. I fixed in 22" Chrome Spreewell Rims on my car, and they keep spining like a tornado when I stop. I got a Blitz Kit from a 95-99 Eclipse molded onto my body, and a triple catback exhaust system straight piped from the engine. My celica is 4WD, not AWD, difference? Yes. There's an inflatable tube built underneath my Celica that inflats when I decide to drive on the water.. ph33r that. My Celica is painted lime green and dead sexy blue. I got this 10 ft APC wing hooked up to my Celi's hatch, and that some fly stuff to see there. I got some insane hyper-glow stickers from Eurolite, HKS and AEM.

Now if you don't believe me, thats your fault yo. I'll get you pictures soon, but right now my front bumper is hanging from the ceiling, the TV is still in the living room and the 20" subwoofers are still at Circuit City. Oh and i'm selling the tri-turbo engine to get me a 7a-fe, i don't want any wheel spin when i get on the gas.

lol.. sorry, i'm just bored.

[Guest_Jason_*]

YOU MEAN YOU SAW MY FORBIDDEN PICTURES???

[marcusk]

hey, i live in south sioux city NE right across the river...if your doin a swap maybe you could let me check it out sometime....

[Charlie97L]

ok well, i didn't mean for this to get outta hand, it's nothing personal, i just want to see a tricked out car like yours and i'm impatient. no hard feelings man, i just want to share in your awesome car.

here's pics of my 87 mr2, the rust bucket that it is, and up one directory, some pics of my celica and some stuff i sold awhile ago. it's not ttops on the celi, i have an actual other car.

http://www.antebellumcovers.com/CharlieCar...ics/MR2%20Pics/

enjoy! sorry again, i look forward to seeing your car!

[Guest_Matthew_*]

the reason that I took the sub pic out was because it was what it did look like. And the about the brushed aluminum trim kit. If you want to see that go to trim kit I bought from ebay

[Guest_Matthew_*]

Charlie, I thought that you meant that you had t-tops from an mr-2 on your celica. Sorry man.

[Guest_Matthew_*]

hey marcusk, do you ever go to sioux city? You probably do, I have never seen your car before.

[west_minist]

HA!

Let us all wait the time out and see what happens.

I hope no one took my hilarious post offensivly, there was no material intended for anyone at all, it was just me being stupid to John.

[marcusk]

yea..i spend alot of time in sioux city since thats where everything is, i think i saw your car before b/c there was one exactly like it at big deal auto, it was a 97 auto..i dont know what year yours is but it was the same color. you probably havent seen my car much tho b/c its in storage for the winter, which it pissing me off since its pointless b/c theres no snow...what side of the city do you live on?

[Guest_Matthew_*]

yea I live by riverside in the woodbury heights edition. Currently my car is in Sgt. Bluff. One of the supervisors where I work is helping me with the swap. It is pretty nice that there isn't any snow. It just sucks that the roads are so horrible here. Yea that's where I got this car. It's a 98 not 97 though.

if you are referring to me, i was on topic. i was on the topic of your "far from stock on the inside" comment. i jsut wanted to see it, but you wouldn't produce. it is NOT MY FAULT that you got 0wn3d in this thread. i wanted pictures to see your set up, i was interested, but then everything fell apart on you. your stories mixed up and all that, and you never found the CDs and all that, but it's all good. i really don't care anymore, i started out wanting to see it, but now i just see it as a big hoax. and that is how it remains until i see it. i mean honestly, if you have it, that's great, but the signs are just pointing to no right now.

anyway, this is all stopping RIGHT NOW, i do not believe you, let that be known, but also, do not sit here and say this is all me. it's NOT MY FAULT that this happened, i'm just one of the people that likes to interact on a message board, considering the role i play, i feel it's my part, and i also enjoy it. so, i said my mind, don't hold it against someone when they don't believe you when you don't produce what you say you have.

the end.
