Overexaggerated, but here it is. My car was down for a while and so I decided to let the modifications begin. Started off with buying parts from fellow 6GC members and then off to ebay!
My buddy bought me some LaminX for Christmas, so in return I thought I'd put them on. Yellow tint ftw! Jay-Dee-Emm! ![]() Yup, Sokie Tech Hood Dampers!

you gonna paint your valve cover? i think it would look really good in red to match the strut tower bar and the trd logo on your cooling plate. with the title i thought your car was gonna look ricey with a stupid body kit, but instead it actually looks simple, in which simple looks good in my book. i really like the wheels by the way.

Yup....either stick with the 7afe and powdercoat the valve red or 4agze head with red powdercoat. Ideally 3sge beams.

Automatic FTW! She screams right upon flooring the gas pedal. Got a new filter to go with it too. Better suction flow.

Looks good and clean the yellow lights are a little to much for me though, I though your car was a stick lol.

Thanks ALL for the comments! The oil pan gasket was easy; just a bunch of bolts to remove, tap the oil pan til it becomes loose, scrap the old gasket off, apply silicone/sealant and new gasket, bolt up and your done. As far as the engine, the 7afe still has a good life before it craps out. Gonna hold to it and start collecting parts for the new motor.

really. thats what i had a local mechanic do to my car. but my celica is still leaking oil. i think its leaking from the top part of the upper oil pan. have to spray it down with brake parts cleaner to see wheres its leaking from. alright good luck with your future engine
