whats the point of the tilt plate holder?

[azian_advanced]

the car looks great!

my front plate is tilted too... just because it's being held by zip ties to the grill. there's no other way to have it.

[bseaman_5]

hey is your front windshield tinted too?? car looks sick!

[Promasta]

love the works, i was thinking about getting those wheels but got some wedssports instead
tint is awesome, but the cops wouldn't be to happy if mine was that dark

Spider, after changing the solenoids it wasn't that bad, but I ended with a manual trans swap. Now I have a competition stage 1 clutch and 3sgte light flywheel.

Stupid automatic shift solenoids

wow.. nice ride!

Now you see why I have no need for my other rear and front splitter set.

Gerald, I opted to complete me ss-III front end instead of the gt-four, but I learned so much from that info. that I know I can do it if I had to.

Bseaman - I used to have the darkest tint all the way around even the sunroof - illegal in most places. There was a law that took in effect just a couple weeks ago that banned a full face tint. That means most in front is an 8". I just removed everything in the front because it looked dumb with just the 8" strip. However, they still do look dark because they did not ban the side tinting and rear.

[whatthe]

when are you getting your raiser blocks? and clear side repeaters?

[trdproven]

i have thought about getting the blocks in order to complete everything but I keep looking at them and somehow they do not look solid enough from the front angle as they do from the side and rear. I think the reason why is because the gt-four front end is more buff so it matches much better. I will think about getting them still. I will not get the clear side repeaters but the amber ones. I am a fan of amber (JDMMMM). This will be done and relocated to the side fender on my next paint job. This makes it the 3rd paint job in less than 3 years. repaint of the stock, superwhite with platinum pearl, and now maybe superwhite again with a lexus pearl. Want to try red but it hides the taillight beauty, want black but it hides the accessories and the detail too much. White seems to be the best of both worlds. Funny thing is that I never liked white my whole life. It grew on me.

All of this ss-III thing is reminding me of maikl's car - that is indeed a beauty.

one of my fav 6th gens, awesome pics mate. love it!

[delusionz]

I don't want to be stink, And I know your car looks alot better than mine and you've obviously spent alot more money on it than I have... But.......

That looks nothing like an SS-III and the license plate holder isn't "tilt," It's just the right size to fit a Japanese license plate, their plates aren't tilted, yours just doesn't fit properly.

What it does look like though is a nice tidy Celica, *thumbs up*

[trdproven]

It is a tilt - do you want me to show you how far it can tilt back in, that is the minimum tilt that I've set it to. I can adjust it more forward and tilt far more in. I can even adjust it lower too. If you knew anything at all you would have notice the tilt adjustment bolts on the sides. The black piece is for the OEM bumper and the metal piece is the JDM tilt holder bought seperately.

For your information - the only thing missing is the riser blocks from a TRUE ss-III. I have everything else exterior wise for an SS-III. Don't mean to be rude but go back to Malpaso's ss-III thread information and re-adjust your reply or delete it

I ran TRD springs with KYB struts before, then I switched it out to Intrax springs at 1.8 all around. I will never regret the TRDs or Intrax. Both good springs. Intrax is not that low for 1.8, thats why i got coilovers. Now I have the megan coilovers, which I have not put on yet.

Dude you got some deep pockets.

I'm an IT Specialist for the Navy. My car is not the only thing I love spending for, I spend for gadgets, bbq's all the time, movies, band equipment, DJ equipment, eating out, and going clubbing and treating friends. I have partial regrets that I spent so much on my celica, I guess I just wanted to do it while I am still young. I'm still waiting for one really solid paint job and body work. It makes me all realize I should be spending for something more important like a new house and or land. My advice is think real hard what style you really want and just stick to that. You don't want to keep buying stuff only to change it out again. Don't cheap out on parts, get the best the first time. The only reason why people spend a lot is because you keep buying the same stuff over and over. My best advice - keep researching, that is the best decision you can make first. I have a lot of spare parts I keep around - some never used.

[trdproven]

brady - these are the Intrax - I sold my TRDs a while ago to Griff.

[simella]

I like it a lot! Nice car,just bigger muffler missing

[trdproven]

^ I'm just being patient with the muffler, don't wanna get anything else but Greddy SP2, so if anyone is selling let me know, but at the same time not in a rush, I stay true to OEM as much as possible.
