different ride for front page?, featured car.. Options

[sinner96ST]

Anyone else going to step up to the plate & be featured on the front page? Or is this something that you're putting on hold, coomer?

I'm sure we've got another show car around here, somewhere.

[Guest_DJMC_Celica_*]

Not to sound erragant or however you spell it, but i think my car is one of a kind, i know it definetly doesnt have a pimped out engine, BUT i have been getting comments and people raveing about my car. Not to mention i won a summer drive fest near my house, i came in first for tuner cars. I think we should be able to vote on the cars! I dont know
Thanks,
DJMC

[shid]

Coomer picks em.

[Guest_DJMC_Celica_*]

I know i was just thinkin it would be nice if maybe we could? but whatever

[SlowCelica94]

I myself am a peroformence guy. I think commer trys to pick a blend of style and performence, DJMC. He wants to appeal to everyone.

But I think mike dotson's car needs to be features. Has it been already?

Or what about that kid on here with only headers, exhaust, intake, and afc-2. It's an ST and he ran 16 flat. That guy's a stud to pull that kinda time.

[Guest_DJMC_Celica_*]

I hear ya! i think we should have a style car now since there was a performance and then before that there was soundsluts car which was style. Maybe rotate? I would love to know what coom thinks?

[moltar]

Mike Dodson was already featured, and plus he sold his beautiful machine!

UGGGHHH ok first off The "Stickers" are for my business and they get me bookings "advertisement" and I will measure my wheels for you if it makes you happy! OK?

[SlowCelica94]

take off ur wheels and bodykit, then ill nominate you. lol

[Guest_DJMC_Celica_*]

Whatever, i ride my way you ride yours, oh well!

[SlowCelica94]

Did you ever sell ur stock sideskirts?

[funnyboy117]

Get a pic with a yardstick by your wheels so we know for sure.

[celicarocker]

djmc

i dont mean this offensivly, but your cars nothing special. you have the same body kit as everyone else, some "19.5" chrome rims, and afterburner tails. nothing to out of the ordinary. dont get me wrong, i think your car looks good, but its definetly not one of a kind. tons of people have an invader kit, chrome rims, and aftermarket tails... when you have something like doggys car or neverstops car, then you have something thats one of a kind. when you buy all bolt on parts, its not one of a kind....

edit: and i also agree those dont look like 19.5"s

[funnyboy117]

I nominate me because although a stock ST coupe on the outside, there is a mean 7A-FE engine inside...which is also stock. Basically all I have is a clean car with a sound system, running on a spare....wow that's depressing...

[celicarocker]

[Jdog1385]

Tufy has an insane car. check his profile out

[turboinduction]

DJ's rims look like 18's ... 19's at the biggest. They dont look as big as mine though. Hum. What is the tire size? Take a pic...

[1HardGT]

[QUOTE]Tufy has an insane car. check his profile out
[QUOTE]

Yup

[Jdog1385]

[shid]

YAY! tufy's on th emain page now!

[WannabeGT4]

Excellent choice!!!

[funnyboy117]

I don't know how long the other featured cars were on the front page, but once it's time for a change I nominate frotou's car. The engine is amazing, and so is the rest of the car. Sure the yellow/black interior might not be to everyone's tastes, but no one can deny that he worked meticulously on the whole car.

[playr158]

yea frotou has a nice car................and DJMC has not even a slightess chance of getting on there....."i have 19.5s" dude even my mom's little 2 year old day car kid knows there arn't such things as 19.5s dur only WHOLE NUMBERS that just ruinded even the imagination to consider you plus you have afterburners so cough no...............i will say my car will never have the chance to be on that page do to funding but that is how it always goes.....................................but when ever OOBE decides to finish i'll go for him too cause his will be hot.....

[Consynx]

i agree with Frotou, and to the guy who is depressed about the celi, what size Solo Barics were those, in your profile is just says L7s
and the picture with the boxes is too blurred

[DamDirtyApes]

i have red tires!

[turboinduction]

[C3L1CA]

WOW thanks Ti what a compliment. I still need a swap, but i think i am close to done the interior and exterior.

[DamDirtyApes]

[turboinduction]

So true Adam, so true

No prob C3L1CA, your car is b-e-a-utiful

-Ti

[funnyboy117]

[dabbill]

Thats not true about wheels comming in only even sizes like 17", 18", or 19". They dont have half sizes, not sure about haveing a 19.5" rim, but my dads truck has 16.5" rims, and i have seen a car with 17.5" rims.

[SlowCelica94]

maybe we should feature more cars, just not as nice of ones. like some of the boosted GTs

[jayi12-15psi]

umm, maybe if djmc changes his car domain site, and does some performance mods, then coomer might THINK about it

[Lar-]

So for, Coomer did a great job in choosing the featured rides...
I think Coomer has good taste for "deep" beauty.

Coomer, please don't bring the Featured Ride standard down.


... and ohh.... 215/35/18 tires on 19.5 wheels!?!?... I don't think so...

[Blakout16]

i think coomer should vote my car. he saw my blue interior on the inside and all he could say was "blue... everything" i was just coincidence that i had winterfresh, white/blue shirt, white/blue shorts, and same for everything i wore, actually.. damnt i hate blue now. its got some bad reflection. ok ok, VOTE FOR ME, im like nadar. a throw away vote but im hella cool lol (jp) i think.... ill be up there someday when i get my act together.



-Aaron.

[chucho]

[Blakout16]

hmm i will. need to clean it up abit and fix some stuff but ill get it by tonight. (the pictures of it) but indeed im changing the color tho... so dont expect it for long lol.
edit nvm. i have some old pictures of it.

[Blakout16]

didnt have the gauges yet at that time tho

[shadycrew31]

blackout thats the same exact color of my interior. well at least the dash board part thats all i have left ne way.

[Blakout16]

and all this was done when my car was wrecked (still in the drive way) thats why none of the pictures came from the left side cuz i couldnt open up the driver side door lol... it was hilarious

[lagos]

id like to nominate my car!

[Ralph96gt]

i would nominate mine but...nah there are better ones out there. and besides my interior is stock and i dont have really big engine mods. maybe after i turbo it up and i paint it then maybe ill come back and nominate myself.

[bryce804]

I nominate Lagos too. His car is alsome and fun to ride in. id nominate my car, but...its not a toyo

[playr158]

umm, maybe if djmc changes his car domain site, and does some performance mods, then coomer might THINK about it

ummm i pray coomer never even think djmc blah afterburns yuk.....

so here is how it will go:
1) frotou
2) lagos
3)celieca (sp) but TI nomination, its red lambo doors vader kit, projecotrs.....next summer i will nominate myself but until then i won't consider myself worthy...

oh and don't even think about it hyundia boy;)

[bryce804]

screw you, i like my little hyundai. it looks better then your car, at least til you get it fixed.

[NEVERSTOP]

I wouldnt mind seeing FROTUO's car or C3licas (SP on both) once he gets some more motor work done

I personally think a featured car should be a perfect balance of all elements and not something that we have all seen 10 or 15x's before

[x_itchy_b_x]

[playr158]

oh and if never gets engine work on his 99 i also say his 99

[Consynx]

has neverstop ever been nominated?

even though i guess he's "nowhere near done". i'd nominate him
he has an even balance of exterior, interior, and not sure what he's done engine-wise so far, but i definately love the look.

i hate it in a sense too, because i was considering those wheels, and now i HAVE to get the machined(i like to stay original).

btw, i didn't get my SS-III splitters from Chrisc, so yes i was trying to be original there too.
i got them on celica.net through idunno who(maybe roo?) and they came from Asia

[tufy]

[x_itchy_b_x]

[Supersprynt]

ST205's shouldnt be eligible.

[thedevilmaycrie]

st205 are ok but only ones in america

i think that you should also look at whats done to it
ie no just go for looks but also engine swaps, custom work should be thought about hard

-DMC

[ghostdog]

no st205's? no cars outside the US? this is an international site guys, we can't put limitations like that. afterall its not the car you start with its where you end up

[C3L1CA]

[x_itchy_b_x]

the few, the proud, the still running 5sfte's lol

[Coomer]

A new featured ride will be up tomorrow. I was gonna do it tonight but I can't remember my FTP login information and can't get it because my other home computer decided it'd be convenient to die a few days ago. It's on my work computer though, so tomorrow I'll work on it.

[thedevilmaycrie]

[celicarocker]

im making a prediction.... its gonna be frotous car

[Coomer]

[Drocay]

damn, frotous interior is hot.

[sphinx]

great choice coomer.


*applauds the winner*

[C3L1CA]

good choice he has everything

[NEVERSTOP]

[tufy]

very nice car. so many details on car.
great choise coomer as always . and thanks for making my car featured to your amazing site. it was an honor for me.

[Andason]

where did that guy come from???

[Consynx]

Frotou?
he's been around...
he was in the TRD Spoiler GB(obviously)
and yes...he's around

[Jen]

His car.. is so nice. *drool*

[celicarocker]

oooh i was right....

his car deserves it though..... its amazing....

[celicarocker]

id like to see a coupe make it one day...

[SlowCelica94]

I still say change it every week or 2 and get feature a lesser modded car. Keep the current celi of the month or whatever it is, but featuer other cars that are nicely done up, just not REAL modified

[Consynx]

every week or two?
that would mean we need like5X's the celica we have

i think 1 every mo. or so, like it's been
