Silly97- Nov 25, 2018 :SSFOUR Conversion finished. Pictures posted, Just to keep a record of my cars history. Nothing special. :) Options

[ILoveMySilly97]

Ok....sooo....I know it's a bit late for me to start it but might as well do it now. Lol. I bought my 1997 Toyota Celica GT for $4,500 on February 27, 2012. It had 175,000 miles on the cluster. It was in very good condition. The only problem I had on it was it had a CEL light on. Which was just the speed sensor in the cluster not working. Replaced that and the CEL was cleared. Also my car didn't pass emissions test but I eventually had that fixed after running on premium and Lucas Cleaner. Overall I was more than happy to pay the overpriced $4500.

Very ricey and not my flavor.

Here's a link to my FB album of my car. It has all of my pics of my silly97.

Here some things my car had on when I first bought it:

Bone stock performance
7GC GTS Rims
AG Lowering Springs
JDM Tail lights
Stock side skirts
2post spoiler
Rear tinted windows
Window stickers




Here's what I've done to it so far:

Performance
Injen Short Ram Intake


Suspension
Megan Coilovers


Ichiba Spacers 15mm and extended lug studs all around


Eibach Camber Bolt


Fender Rolled All Around



Exterior
3k Hi halogen bulb


8k Lo HiD conversion
3k halogen fog light bulb
Amber turn signal bulb


Clear side lights


TRD Roof Spoiler REPLICA(Hi-C)


OEM SSIII front grill
Tom's Front Lip REPLICA(Zonz540)


Enkei RPF1 17x8 +45Front +35Rear
Nankang NS1 205/40/17



Interior
TRD Shift Boot


SpreeLED White Gauge Lights


GT4 Rear Strut Bar




I do have a set of GT4 splitters that are waiting to be painted.



The rest of my plans for my car is to get it repainted and installed with the gt4 splitters. I want to go wit the Supra Limited Edition Silver code 1B9. I also want to get a custom exhaust. I really want the JDM projectors also. We will see what else will be added onto my list as days goes by. Lol. Also I'm planning to keep my silly FOREVER!!! XD

FINALLY! I have looked for this before and couldn't believe you hadn't made one yet!

I can't remember if its actually been said or if I was just planning to say it, but I was always very interested in your thread, because I also bought a Silver '97 Celica GT-equiv. manual in March last year for my first car It amazed me how much you had done in the same time that I hadn't... But I'm getting my act together now and just put 7th gen wheels on too... Hopefully I'll beat you to the projector headlights soon

Edit: And your overpriced $4500... I paid $8k and had to fly to the other side of the country to get it!

I never really thought of making one actually. Until Ryan convinced me. Lol. Silver and teal is my face colors on our 6gc btw. We will see who gets them projectors. Haha. Dang. You really did pay a lot then. Lol. I thought I had it bad.

Yea thanks. I can go lower but I won't be able to pull out my driveway if I do. Lol.

LOL! yeah I saw that pic was like whoa, tha'ts gonna be scary going up and down. hahha. I feel like that already with my stupid driveway and I'm not even dropped. I don't know how i'm gonna do it once i'm dropped. hahahah

[sr666]

I'm glad I did mate

Just seen on the pic showing clear repeaters how low the car is to the floor

That looks awesome

[Syaoran]

What a coincidence, I also happen to have bought a set of rear TRD splitters in red... haha

Car looks great, love that driver side quarter shot with the RPF-1s on

Yea. Im actually lower than that right now so I have to come at my driveway at a hard angle or I'll scrape. Lol. Earlier today I went over speed bumps at the mall parking lot. I drove my front wheel over and once it went over I heard the bottom of my frame scrape. Lol. Its too much so ima lift it up a bit tomorrow. Drop it back down when I want to again. Lol.

I laughed when I read that... I also got some rear red trd splitters a couple weeks ago.

I may have said ths before but I call your Tom's Lip mine since you bought it just days before had the cash saved up to buy it off zonz.. LOL
Anyway, looking good man!

[JoshuaM]

Haha, and I was going to buy a red set of Trd splitters a couple of weeks ago too, until the local shops quoted $250 to respray them. So I am just about to order the overpriced not so great condition silver ones on eBay

Edit: *Just bought

oh man, I was actually looking at some red ones too but I didn't wanna have red on my car or have to respray it so I held out for some green ones. Got'em and just threw them on. Love it! hahahah

[Syaoran]

Luckily my car is black so I can respray them at home pretty easy

It makes me think that the GT4 splitters only came stock with red GT4. LOL! J/p. Yea. Sorry to grab the lip off of you but it was one of the two lips that I wanted to get for my car and it was already silver so I had to get it. Lol.

There goes another red set. Hahah.

I was actually thinking of just doing it myself but never really had the time and space to do it.

Love it. It looks great on Megans

Megans are very good for it's price.

[ILoveMySilly97]

BTW. I raised my car. Raised the rear up like 1/4" and the front 3/4". So now I don't have to worry about scraping my bottom frame over speed bumps and scraping my front lip.

EDIT: Finally got around and took a pic. It's still low but not too low. Just about perfect height for DD to clear them speed bumps and driveways.

[The_enD]

This forum is full of good looking Celicas.

A noob question, did you roll it so when you drop it the tires won't hit the fender?

Also, do you have any pictures of the SpreeLED kit and some pictures of the process. Or it's just 3 LEDs that you plug/unplug and done?

Thanks. Yea. Its recommended to roll at least the rear febders for our cars if you want to go low. The front is already factory rolled but id still recommend getting it rolled.

The spreeled kit that I bought was for the cluster and the climate and clock but I only installed the cluster because the other two was too complex for me. Lol. Only pic I have of it is the one I have above.

Got done with 3 hrs of sanding. All i need to do now is prime it, paint it, and gloss it. Can't wait for it to be done and installed! This is my first time ever prepping anything for a repaint.

[Syaoran]

Looks good. Make sure those white seams don't have a texture to it, or it'll show through the paint.

[ILoveMySilly97]

Awesome. I didn't see any primer in the previous pic. Are you using any?

[ILoveMySilly97]

Nope. Didn't think of it til today so I'm going to have to make quick run on sunday morning to get my primer. Lol.

[Syaoran]

Use the primer and the adhesion promoter on top of it.

[ILoveMySilly97]

Adhesion promoter then primer then colour then gloss. Sounds good?

I hit 200,000 miles last night! XD

Here it is. Finished painting it! Still waiting a couple days for the paint to cure so I can sand it, rub it, polish it, and wax it.

You just need to know what color you need. Mine has aftermarket paint and the previous owner didn't let me know what color my was but I made a guess that it was quicksilver and indeed it was. Perfect match. Lol.

Yea I know we do. Lol. Once I put the splits on and your car dropped, then our cars well be identical. Would be funny if we both get projectors at the same time In the future too. Haha.

[cheela]

hehehe. i just might.

just too bad mine's an ST.

True that. I wouldn't mind having a 5sfte but then again. It's Cali. Lol.

Sorry for the late update. Been busy working. But here's how the trd rear splits turned out. Didn't fit perfect for some reason and I broke off the rivets on the right side brace while installing it.

[JoshuaM]

Fiiinally You had yours painted a while before I got mine, but I've been driving around with mine fitted for a couple of weeks now

Its a shame that the color match wasn't perfect... But they still look good:) definitely needed on there to go with all that low and your front and skirts.

So now the race for the projectors are on Mine should be arriving in a week or two... But I won't be able to put them on until after exams finish mid-June... So you still have time

Yea it was a shame but it's ok. It was meant to look ok til my paint job in a couple of years. Lol. Im trying to get my hands on projectors too. Just looking around for a decent price. I'm not really looking forward to that hassle of removing the front bumper along with my front lip. Pain in the ass. Lol.

[cheela]

eh? front bumper isn't too bad. Just gotta do it once and then you'll see how easy it is. I can probably take it off in 10 minutes or so now. lol!

[ILoveMySilly97]

Lol. Ill find out for myself when I make that attempt.

I got mine for roughly $600 after tax and shipping. I was lucky and found it in the same state as me. Also the guy is using greyhound so it's cheaper. I'll be waiting, I'm guessing 1-2 weeks? Haven't got my tracking number yet. If you want a set Mahlar95 is actually selling his for a good price. http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=89322

[JoshuaM]

Ahh okay. That's nice that you could get them relatively locally. Much less worry with damage / loss in transit.

Thanks for the heads up, but since I'm down in Australia and there are practically none here, it was easiest for me to order directly form Japan. I paid for them about 3 weeks ago, but to make shipping reasonable it is going via sea freight, and will take '4-6 weeks'. That means you could still get your before me!

Josh, out of curiosity, how much is airmail compared with surface?

Don't worry, you'll all know as soon as they arrive

Haha, well sorry to thread-jack but for my stuff (full set projector headlights + power folding wing mirrors and relay) it was 8450 yen for sea mail ($83.20) or 19800 yen for EMS express ($195)... So a pretty decent difference Unfortunately though most shops in Japan will only ship EMS... So you need somebody private to actually help save you the money

Now back to 'Silly97...

[ILoveMySilly97]

^Yea if I were you. Id go the cheaper route. Save some money. Hence why I didn't mind greyhound. Them projectors aren't cheap. Lol.

Lol. Thanks bro. I'm building my car to impress myself more than to others. Trying to get all the JDM goodies before they become even more rare. I'm planning on keeping my Silly97 forever. I always tell my friends and family that she's going to be my old man classic car. :')

If I was asked to trade mine for a st205. I don't think I would. Reason is, is because I put too much love into my st204 already. No one can replace her.

I know the one you're talking about... But that is an astronomical asking price... Not a selling price. They commonly get advertised around the $20-22k mark and sit for quite a while (some I have seen there from at least 6 months ago at that price). The only one I have seen in person was a completely original minter that sold for $18k after sitting for a while around the 20 mark. A personal import model sold 2 weeks ago for under $12k (albeit quickly). So they aren't cheap, but they aren't that ridiculous Better value than a full 3S-GTE swap here IMHO.

In any case, we're thread jacking again....

[ILoveMySilly97]

H1 HiD bulbs came in and as expected. Tested it and they are plug and play with my 9006 ballast. Also going to down my lighting from 8k to 5k. The 8k wasn't really visible at night especially in the rain at night. Can barely even see the painted lane marks.

Now just waiting on my projectors to come in so I can get started on fitting the H1 bulbs into the lo beam housing and find a way to get my accent lights working. At least my accent lights are coming with the sockets but I don't know if the bulbs are going to be in there.

[ILoveMySilly97]

Got my H1 Hid bulb inserted in the housing. I used LewFX method to get my HiD's installed.

I used UTSlickVic's method to connect the accent socket. Just need to splice the other end into my parking/turn lights.
http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...7&hl=accent


All that's left is to take off my bumper and actually get them installed. Only thing I really need to do is find a way to wire my accent lights into my parking or turn light wires.

[JoshuaM]

I am so jealous right now (I ordered mine over a month ago now!). They look really good! You are obviously very keen to get them on there, because you have certainly been doing all your research to have everything ready to go!

We will be waiting anxiously for pics

Yea it Winnie. Lol. Kind of scared to do the cut off mod but after thinking about it for a while. I think I might as well since ima have it on my car forever.

[Box]

That and blinding people is never nice. With the proper cutoff you should be able to run HID's in the low beams also.

[richee3]

I did it simply because the hot spot of light is right where the cutoff flicks up, right into oncoming traffic. The mod is a lot easier than I thought it would be. The lights are very easy to disassemble.

[ILoveMySilly97]

Yea I tested them with my hids on and it seems like both lights need to be cut off if I'm correct. Since both are angled up to incoming traffic.

[Ehrgeiz]

Nice! Projectors are the best mod for any 6GC (that and some proper wheels, love the RPF1's!).

I decided not to do a lhd conversion. I just finished installing them but will take pics later.

[sr666]

you got pics yet?

They fitted yet?

If the answer to the above questions is no then why not

Sorry to keep you guys waiting but never had a right time to take a pic of my car. So I finally took some after work. Will take better pics whenever I get some time to clean and take it out for a photoshoot.

Went from 8k lo to 5k lo. I couldn't stand driving around with 8k. So hard to see. Lol.

And has anybody made custom crystal style fog lights shaped to our current housings before? (I was thinking about this for myself )

The previous owner had debadged the car and added toyota emblem decals to cover the holes. I had removed them because I'd rather have a debadged car than a decaled car. Lol. Thank you.

Thanks. You meant clear fogs as in the lighting? I was thinking of changing the lighting to 5k too. Not sure yet though.

It has the 5k in it. For some reason. If you look into the housing it'll look more blue than when you look at the lightout. It's close to normal to white. Just perfect for my bad eyesight. Lol.

[cheela]

damn, you and JoshuaM are way ahead of me. I gotta get me some projectors so I can keep up with you two! hahahah.

if only it were possible I would love to get our cars together and shoot photos of them. lol!

You've had plenty of time... Tisk tisk

Haha, yeah... I'll need to follow Box back on one of his famous weekly trips accross the pacific (See running joke in Today I... thread ).

yeah I joined 6gc earlier but that was when I was a broke college student. I had to scrap up change to get my parts and somehow $600 headlights didn't seem to fit in my budget. hahahah.

but yes, if box can make it across the pacific in his than you should have no problem. hahahah

Looking good. Just makes you wish the projector headlights had been standard equipment.

I wished we had central Cali meets. Would be perfect for the north Cali and south Cali 6gc to meet half way and be perfect for the cen cal 6gc.

I wished it was. Would've been a lot cheaper. Lol.

Nooooooooo!!! Found out that my drivers side cv boot is torn. Looks like it's been torn for at least a month or two now. Man....I hated replacing my passenger side and now I'm going to need to replace my drivers side sometime in the next month or two.

Haha. A lil too late for that. I was going to take my car in for an alignment tomorrow but I'd rather wait til I get my axle replaced first. So I wouldn't have to take it in again.

[Box]

Just means you need more duct tape. Yeah, I'd just wait until you have the new cv axle installed before having it aligned as well.

[cheela]

yup, mine just ripped last month too. sucks!

[ILoveMySilly97]

Going to head to AutoZone and order a replacement.
