[delusionz]

Hey mate, welcome.

Whats the function of those lights/switches next to your cigarette lighter? Ive only ever owned Jap spec Celicas and they all have extra coin holders there (I put my cellphone in it).. No electronics on it aside from the ciggie lighter and the light up ring around it.

[NGHTKD]

so what are your plans for the celica???

like cuts said, join ozcelica etc...

[trdproven]

i can tell the bumper is different or repainted seperately, but anyways, good job on getting a very good potential car. Performance or looks, you are a winner either way. If you get a TRD shift knob, it will sit lower than that looks. Makes it shorter without getting a short shifter, but a short shifter is really low.

[whatthe]

^really that i didnt know the trd shifter makes it sit lower? how?

Ahh okay, JDM Celicas don't come with alarms.

[easternpiro1]

welcome to our family!

[Aussie_Celica]

so what are your plans for the celica???

like cuts said, join ozcelica etc...

well some things i wanna do are new exhaust, make the indicators on the front bumper clear, new rims, interior lights blue eg dash and that, maybe gt4 risers. also when i move outta the country to ballarat and dont have to travel crappy roads ill lower it. as you can see nothing performance wise at the moment, stupid P plate restrictions.

yeah im signed up over there as nirvanafan i think.

[axelrduvirage]

WELCOME TO THE CIRCUS KID. hope you spend many an hour wasting time and learning from the gurus and wizards. lots to see here. great bunch. hope you and your family were not affected by the brushfires. it was in Victoria territory wasn't it? scred the bejesus out of me and i'm half a world away.

peace

[Aussie_Celica]

thanks every one for the welcome. The wait is killing me lol wish Saturday would hurry up.

[trdproven]

^really that i didnt know the trd shifter makes it sit lower? how?

the threading is upwards toward the top of the knob.

[Aussie_Celica]

well i picked up my car. gotta say i love it. just needs a new cover for the remote lock lol and a new lens for one of the fog lights. might need some touch ups in the paint like the spoiler and theres a scratch or too, but over all im happy with it.

[cel97ica]

welcome, for the most part from the pictures you have up the car looks pretty clean..that sucks the roads over there are crappy Celicas look a lot better lowered but if you get the chance you should put up some new pictures

[Aussie_Celica]

ok i have some new pics. i have also started work on changing the cluster light color.

Hey man thats nice, I recently bought mine (im 17) and i was looking at that one you have there before I found mine, good buy.
P.S. With all the people saying join OzCelica.... Personally, i joined a few months ago, and I'm still awaiting activation, so I can't participate in anything, and I don't even have permission to PM a mod to ask why my validation is taking so long... Pretty **** IMO

[CelicaZR]

[epocsirhc]

You have got the pretty rare headlight covers. So did you polish the heat shield of the exhaust manifold? It is starting to look great, keep up the good work!

HAHAHA I was just gonna comment on the headlight covers. that's sweet! looking good.

[Aussie_Celica]

yeah i did polish it but its starting to go crappy again coz i only done it with steel wool the first time im gonna try hit it with a polishing wheel and see what happens.
also yeah i do have the head light covers sad thing is one of my lows is missing a clip and the other has a chunk missing highs are mint actually have a spare set of highs

[DaCCelica94]

welcome. you chose a great car. treat it well and it will return the favor

[epocsirhc]

I noticed that you have a leather wrapped steering wheel and shift knob! Try polishing up the valve cover that would look good it you could keep a nice finish on it. Just keep working with different polishing techniques until you find one that works.
