bleh.

[Bitter]

new commuter mobile, i don't have the time or spare money for a fun car, but rest assured when i do, it will be a manual. the gts auto isnt so bad really, its triptronic with up/down shift buttons on the steering wheel and shifts pretty quickly.

cheap and easy to mod = mini cooper. thats why mine is named after a porn star

[Bitter]

$5900 and its mine, got temps for it this evening too.

needs tires and a lil brake work then it'll be the new daily driver.

You failed at "Auto".

Well lets see you eat a burger with one hand, hold a soft drink in the other and drive with your knees! "HA you failed at doing all 3!"

[NgoFcukinWay]

You failed at "Auto".

Well lets see you eat a burger with one hand, hold a soft drink in the other and drive with your knees! "HA you failed at doing all 3!"

I've done that. A little tricky, but possible. Hold drink en left hand, use left pinky and maybe ring finger on steering wheel cuz I've got power steering and all that jazz, hold burger with right index & middle finger and thumb, shift with bottom half of right fist.

[Remy]

I wouldn't mind having one as a DD good pick up bitter.

[DEATH]

Hey make sure you get the Turbo one...Oh wait.


J/P dude - nice DD

[Hanyo]

lame! you could have gotten a 6gc for that money. You can also have the same engine and transfer all your knowledge you got from the corolla to your 6gc.

congrats btw

[Ruroniarc]

You failed at "Auto".

Well lets see you eat a burger with one hand, hold a soft drink in the other and drive with your knees! "HA you failed at doing all 3!"

I've actually also done this. Soft drink, left hand, knees on the steering wheel, burger in the right hand, and shift with your right hand when you need to. It's really easy. I also change my music selection while the burger is in my mouth. =P

I've perfected the art of knee driving.


Nice Celica though. I really like the look of the 7'th gen. I see one everyday when I go to work. He / she has a 5 speed GT-S. Silver. It's nice.

[Bitter]

I like it, its very soothing to drive actually. off lift above 2000 rpm its got way more power than the 7afe geo, but from a dead stop just stomping the pedal I think that the geo would take it for the first few feet. just does not have the instant off idle torque on tap.

speaking of the geo, i took it on a road trip to normal il for a weekend gathering of eclipse and galant folks. from a dead stop with a brake torque i took a diesel dually turbo cummins from the line to 35-40mph where it proceeded to blow past me and leave me in a cloud of black smoke. that was fun!


but back to the celi, cleaned the filthy maf, new plugs, aired tires to correct pressures, took it for a cruise to get the woman a bite to eat. i love to drive it! its great. easy and relaxing.

Hey man watch how u phrase stuff on here. Mods will assume u were street raceing and thats not aloud on this site. Might wanna reword ur last.

As for the rest of u baggin on him for his new Celi, Chill out. 2000 celi as a DD is quite impressive. Considering most DDs are ur standard beater.

SO HATERS' LAY OFF THE MAN!!!!!!!!

[Bitter]

haha, the speed limit on vetrans parkway is 50, we both stopped at 45 and it turns out he wasnt on it at all really. that truck is awesome, it can smoke all 4 rear tires with ease and run a pretty impressive 1/4 mile as well.

[6G96GT]

My brother has a 2001 GTS with leather, MT, and all the other goodies. I drove it a couple times. Once that VVI or VVTI kicks in, it really hauls A$$! You'll love it. I had to do quite a bit to my 96 Celica GT and he's still faster than me.

[Bitter]

i really don't care if i'm faster or slower than car X or car Y, all i care is that I enjoy driving it and that I enjoy what i do do to it to make it more to my liking.

if you look at the name of the thread "not one of your ****ty ones" i can hate all i want cause he is hating on this site

[Bitter]

it was all in jest guys, don't get soo wound up. look what i said immediately about the new car too!

yea, one of the ****ty new ones! 2000 GTS auto, loaded, leather, pretty nice. picking it up tomorrow night, am excited!

jeeze, some of you people...just can't take a joke.

[hurley97]

What is this crap!!! I see no pictures!!!!!!!!!!!

[Bitter]

and there will be none, its mythical. i has a big horn that grows out of the front and prances around on hooves. shhhh






nah, its dirty as hell, has water in one head light, and some stone chips. i'll get pics once it looks good, everyone has seen a stock black 2000 GTS with some stone chips i'm sure. maybe a few shots when its got its tires on or something. the woman is going to get me a new headliner as she refuses to ride in a car with such an ugly factory headliner, she says it makes the car look like a cheap rental car

nice pick up, way better than the 6th gen

[Bitter]

and then it rained :rofl:

[SeverX13]

im sorry but that rainbow pic does not do you OR the car justice. gay pride?

[Bitter]

lol. thats there because it rained and double rainbows aren't too common. i left my camera in the car so thats all i could get of the rainstorm once it passed.

...you mean VVTL-i. If its the 1ZZ its a VVTi, if its the 2ZZ like in the GT-S 7th Gens, its a VVTL-i. Its bascially Toyotas refined version of VTEC. the "L" stands for "lift".

[Random_Stranger]

im sorry but that rainbow pic does not do you OR the car justice. gay pride?

It's a rainbow man, they are cool to see.... Glad he is happy with is car, but to compare the newer celica to the old ones.... nah... Not to offend anyone, but lots of people agree the 7th gen is more suitable for a chick than a man. So in all fairness, since I have what he called an "Old crappy celica", I am allowed to tell this man his 7th gen is a total chick car.

[cjh4l22]

You failed at "Auto".

You failed at "Auto".

you failed at 2000

x2!!!


ha jp, but really.

[Bitter]

yep, chick car. don't care. it'll spank most stock 6th gens, probably even give a 5spd GT a good run, the auto's still put down 140 to the wheels stock. handles and brakes better too in stock trim.


but a well done 6th gen looks alot sexier than a 7th gen ever will, however i'm a function over form kind of guy.

[SwissFerdi]

Agreed that they're chick cars...I'll take your rims and your steering wheel, but that's about it. kthx.

mine has buttons on it for the shifter, you want one from a 6spd. my rims would be useless, they're cast wheels and can't be seperated from the spokes without destroying the wheels

[SwissFerdi]

...why would you need to separate them? I want the entire thing.

do i need to spell this out?

[SwissFerdi]

Guess I'm a blazing idiot...7th gen Celica wheels are indeed cast, and I do indeed want the whole thing, one piece, non-separable...and the fail in that equation is?

[Bitter]

RIM IS PART OF THE WHEEL, WHY WOULD YOU WANT JUST PART OF THE WHEEL. ****

[SwissFerdi]

My god man...the rim IS the wheel. They're called rims OR wheels.

[Bitter]

My god man...the rim IS the wheel. They're called rims OR wheels.

NO do you refer to your house as a wall? "yea, i'm buying a wall pretty soon, ****ing stoked"

[SwissFerdi]

You're an idiot. They're referred to as rims or wheels, even though wheels are more "correct." You know what I meant.

[Bitter]

wrong is wrong, if i called you gay despite you being straight buy you still knew what i meant would it be ok?

[TRD_Ian]

[Supersprynt]

They're not any more "chicky" than 6GCs, and IDK why everyone rags on them. Is it just cuz a lot of you are 6GC fanboys?

Good luck with it.

[Bitter]

theres much animosity, i don't get it either. if i could have had my pick of any toyota though it would have been a clean MK1 MR-2 hard top with a nice 4agze or a well built 7age. yummy yummy!

[6G96GT]

bitter, my brother has a 2000 Celica GTS and it's nasty. All my work done to mine and I still can't take him off the line or top end and his is bone-stock and my celica is in excellent mechanical condition. His gts rides real nice and has one of the best engineered engines (as I have read in many mags). However, it is a real bitch to work on. Anyway, I'm actually a bit jealous!

His is on the right next to mine. He added a larger hood scoop and he had those graphics made custom.

[BonzaiCelica]

uh toyota failed at attaching an auto tranny to the 2zz-ge!!!

[TiGZ461]

All you need now is the TRD package spoiler/lip set and we got a car!

Kidding, these car's are awesome to drive and when your inside its really something no one would mind Nice seats, awesome dash, and digital gauges count me in. This car is still one of the top interiors to date, and exterior wise very good looking. F these fanboys who don't appreciate anything besides 6g's, you got yourself a good car man, and as a DD you get two thumbs up. But the auto brings down the second thumb by just a bit

Edit: Look this is what I mean

[Bitter]

cool stuff? pfft. its a stubby black antenna and some red stickers. brakes and tires are part of maintaining a car.

not really, wow stock rotors are stock. and tires are big hunks of black rubber. the antenna is to make the car NOT look like a frickin RC car. the red letters are so its just a touch different than the other 2 or 3 black ones i see around.


look, theres the letters and antenna in one shot. not the current letters, current ones are reflective like road signs.


and there they are, but now you can't see the antenna. wowee


look, tire!

That must mean the rest of you are dumb. If I don't give it the OK, then you can't flame, and as such I greatly approve all of Bitter's posts in response to your asinine banter.

[Bitter]

thats not flaming, i come from club3g offtopic. they flame there...this is like kindergarten.

[Bitter]

so my ****ty old celica sprung a leak!




all better now!

[2celicas2love]

GET IT, I love my 7th gen its a GT and an auto and its very fun to drive and pretty quick, i'm sure the GTS is much better you won't regret it, even in an auto there's no fail here.

[Bitter]

you're a little late, i got it and do like it. thanks though!

[Hanyo]

why havent you painted your calipers yet? I know you know how to do it right and we both know its sexy as hell.

[Bitter]

we in the midwest have this thing called winter for about 6 to 8 months every year, i have the paint and materials, tools and know how, and even sometimes i have the time...but what i lack is the right weather. its been too cold for the paint to dry correctly! i'll do them (and do them right) when i put on the SS brake lines

not sure what color to do...red might be too much since they're stockers...maybe a dark gray or black? i have red caliper paint from something else already.

[Bitter]

GTS comes off when I have time.

[Bitter]

I ever mention that I dislike mice?

[Stambo]

you'll learn to dislike mice more if you own a GM with a 3.8 in it. They like to make nests under the plastic engine cover between the valve cover and the intake.

I'm getting one... hopefully.

wow that is amazing shine. what wax did you use?

[Bitter]

I used a really good camera angle and...

http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/4...ech.html?cat=27

It's a pretty good wax, I grabbed it on 'clearance' at the local Big Lots. The rest of the car does not look good, but this wax really makes it 'pop' and hides a lot of the scratches. BUT it is very hard to get an even coat with one application, you really have to do the whole car 2-3 times to get it really even, otherwise you get darker spots and streaks which i have right now but I don't care, its just on to keep water/dust at bay. i'll give the whole car a good hand wash, clay, buff, and thorough waxing and snap a photo then.

Its a strut bar, how hard is it to install?

Not very but it was still a pain in the butt, mostly the drilling and cutting.

Wait what? Drliling and cutting? Do go on.

[Bitter]

Wait what? Drliling and cutting? Do go on.

you need to drill 2 holes to bolt into the rear inner frame of the back for the 3rd point of the brace, then cut the trunk plastics to fit around the bar (if you want to use them, I did). thats what takes the time and is the pain in the butt, the rest is easy just bolts, but getting the plate inside the rear channel is a bit of a pain and once its in you can only get one finger on it to hold it while you try to start a bolt to get it to hold itself into place and its a bit of a manuever when you're holding a flashlight in your mouth in the dark with 1/2 of your car in your friends garage because it rained tonight and not tomorrow

I would love those rims on my car

does the 6th gen use 5x100? if yes then you can cruise on newcelica.org and pickup a set they're not as light as they look though.

I would love those rims on my car

There are a bunch of 6GCs running around with 7GC GT-S wheels. Try your local craigslist, I know I saw a few for sale in my area when I was looking for tC wheels. None with tires though.
