Looks REALLY clean (Interior & Exterior). Only thing is that you need to wipe off all of those mosquito bugs off of your front bumper! Other than that, it looks really good.

[njccmd2002]

love the rubber mats, can you get more of those

[PR0PH37]

I've always loved those wheels and the interior is great. Like some said, the bugs and mats need to be gone but overall it's real nice. I would add a little armour all too.

[Jrgn]

thanks for the comments

I hate those bugs. They are almost impossible to wash off, and when they are washed of they are back after 5 minutes of driving.

I think I am the only member of 6gc who actually like those mats. because if my shoes are wet, they keep the floor from getting wet But i could use some new ones without holes.
Don`t know if njccmd2002 where being serious, but sorry i don`t know where to get them. I have seen a partnumber somewhere one the site so I will post it if i find it

and sorry for being a slow norwegian, but what do you mean by "armour" PR0PH37?

[AnaXyd]

The rubber mats have a part number on the backside of them.. Anyway, great car! The fiberglassed stereo in your trunk is looking awesome. Do you have some more pictures of it? Like pictures in the progress of making them?

Armour All is a series of cleaning products..

[Jrgn]

thanks not shure if i have more, but will post if i find them. Im kinda proud of my fiberglass build because its my first.

I see. Then i will be shure to buy some of it

Armor all:



I say no to armor all. I don't like my interior surfaces greasy.

I've had amazing luck with this:



Highly recommend it.

i see
guess Ill have to buy some gifts for my car

[trdproven]

are those seat covers or upholstered? I've seen folks get theirs upholstered here and they look awesome, I'm typically an OEM kinda person but they look nice I admit.

I haven't tried Armor All on my car, but I've used it on my brother's once (the wipes, not the spray) and it does come out a little greasy.

This stuff works great for me, I'm not sure about it's protective qualities, but it doesn't leave residue and keeps everything dead black.

Armor All makes a "Natural Look" interior detailing spray. It will clean your dash, console, door panels etc, without leaving that nasty greasy look. As for that Ice Stuff....meh Its alright if you only buy detailing supplies at walmart.

[95CelicaST]

And Armor All isn't a product Walmart caries?


I wouldn't use Turtle Wax on the outside of my car (I'm a Zaino guy), but I will swear by their interior cleaner. Go try it before you get up on your high horse - in fact, why don't I go snap some pictures for you.

edit:

Armor all is going to give a shiny finish. I've had problems in the past when I clean my dash the sun reflects off of it and it's hard to see.

This is a quick wipe down with the turtle wax, which per boosted is a crappy product.

I work at a carwash, what I use to wipe down my interior is I first take a degreaser and scrub all panels with a soft tipped scrub brush then wipe off, you'll be amazed at how much dirt comes out. Then I use a product called white luster, the closest I could find to the stuff I use since only businesses can purchase this is this ---White Luster, you get a foam pad, juice it up a little with this stuff and then wipe down your dash, it shines and maintains your interior, I do it at least once a week.

[BonzaiCelica]

there are two types of armor all interior spray. original finish which cleans and leaves a high glossy finish, resulting in that greasy residue. And then there is regular armor cleaner that doesnt leave the greasy finish. I use the original armor all, i think it protects the most from uv and uva sun rays. i have a 94 celica and the dashboard and passenger/driver side door panels look good as new.

Funny thing about winter is that the roads get kinda slippery

Funny thing about winter is that the roads get kinda slippery

ha ha i now the problem with the winter, last week i went for a spin,there was a lot of snow...so i went crazy of driving sideways and then BOOOM i crashed in a sidewalk.... Prize to pey dor 2 min of fun ( 2 broken 17 inch rims,right arm on the wheal and the bearing wrom the wheal.... soooo next time i will walk:D

[njccmd2002]

did you wreck it?

[Jrgn]

No i was lucky. Just some small dents on the driver side.

I know, Cicero. Im gonna start walking too

[Cs91]

Well, you'r not the only norwegian that is having problems with the snow. Though I've had alot of fun with my Celi on snow, I also had one minor incident... Some cracks on my back bumper.
I can recognize my car in yours kinda, I also have a 96 Silver Celi, with the same lowering as you got I think, atleast the same height. And some stereo mods
I love the way you've made your subs, looks so clean. What I did to mine was to build the amps where the spare tire used to be, and I'm currently saving to build a new case for my 12" sub, the one I have now is taking my whole trunk There are some pics of my celi in Ana's thread. Should get a nice norwegian 6gc meet someday summertime!

[Jrgn]

Do you have a picture of how it looks?

Yes we really should Bakkmagedon and Haugbjorg live in the same area as I do and we have talked about maybe having a 6gc meet

[Cs91]

Got a pic here:


Have done lots since i took this pic though, and its getting some new shoes as soon as the snow smelts away. Also gonna give it a good sound deadning such as Anaxyd did, can't stand the rattling that you get on the Norwegian roads...

I know there are 1 more at my school owning a ST, but haven't gotten a hold of him yet, and his looks kinda stock so far, so I have no idea if he shares the same passion for our cars such as we do

[Jrgn]

I could need a sound deadning too

introduce him to 6gc and he will be hooked

[AnaXyd]

Hey!

How much have you guys lowered? Have you just bought some springs, or both dampeners and springs?


I am planning to lower this spring, so I need to do the research!

[Cs91]

Mine Atm got original SS-III lowering from toyota which is 20 in the front and i think either 20 or 25 at the back( gonna check it, either that or mine got alot heavier at the back with the big stereo )
and I recently passed the EU test with it no probs. It rides well too. I got some 40mm springs under my bed thats coming on after the snow melts away i think, and gotta see how low it gets with the skirts + splitters. But 20mm fits nice aswell, and i have absolutely no problems now with the snow and stuff. I can give you some feedback if I ever get to fitting the 40mm springs.

[AnaXyd]

Sounds really good! As far as I know, ST's are not made originally with the Superstrut suspension, so you have converted?

Feedback would be great!

Well i havent really converted, the toyota store down here got hand of some Toyota Team Europe(toyota motorsport) struts. They come in 2 versions, one for our 7AFE and one for the 3SGE engine. not 3SGTE. They came with full TÜV papers and everything. But it was the previous owner of my car that got a hand of these. He lived close to Sarpsborg.

[AnaXyd]

Hm, so this fits the stock suspension of the AT200(7A-FE) ? Maybe it is something for me.

[Cs91]

Would quess so, it's not that low, so that our cars can survive on the norwegian roads. But with big enough tires it would look a bit flush. Mine actually looks better with my winter tires, they are a bit wider and taller, gonna get me some 18" and 215 tires when that snow melts. How is driving yours with the 18"'s? stiff?

And yeah, it fits the stock suspension on The AT200, no probs. As I said, i recently had this lowering cleared with BT, and they had nothing to comment on. Really wanna see and listen to your stereo one day Closely following your worklog on Diskusjon Keep it up, really need a warm garage myself, so many things i wanna get done. Atm im sitting out cold grinding on my side skirts prepping them for paint

Mine is lowered 40/40. Only changed the springs

[Jrgn]

Finally..



..winters over




Now i just have to fix the dents and the rust


Im thinking about painting the rims black. What do you guys think?

[SwissFerdi]

Wow, how did that dent happen? Wasn't there in the fall.

And I'm actually toying with that idea myself. Problem is, our silver is the only color that matches aluminum wheels and that's pretty nice, so I'm not sure if I want to change up...but go for it, I'd like to see how it looks.

Had a little winter accident. There is a picture of it in this thread.

Think Im gonna give it a try

[NGHTKD]

I really like this car! I'm over the whole bodykit thing, so simplicity and clean = the win!

Cal.

[Jrgn]

I lifted up the car to check if there was any rust. No rust, but I got carried away and this is how it ended






Trying to get rid of some road noise

Also installed a new antenna
