Hey guys,
My name is James and I am from Sydney Australia and am going to convert my current 1997 SX into an SS-III (some things may say the same due to preference). To start off my car is sadly in the workshop after I had a minor crash after the car understeared  so currently I have a limited amount of money due to repairs, which I'm sure some of you understand haha. None the less I have bought a few things that i will be adding once the car is back in my hands  These include: JDM Tail Lights: $190 AUD (Including Postage) - From JoshuaM  OEM Fog Lights: $49 USD + $56 USD for postage - From Ebay  3 Part TRD Front Strut Brace: $410 AUD (Including Postage) - From JoshuaM  OEM Side Skirts: $25 AUD (Need to pick up)  GT-Four/SS-III WRC Spoiler/Wing: $80 AUD (Need to pick up)  SS-III Rear Splitters: $180 AUD + $30 AUD postage - From JoshuaM  SpreeLED Full Dash Conversion Kit (Blue): £24.99  Will have to prepare some of what I have bought (Re-paint and sand) but when all done should look great! Will keep all you 6GC members updated I hope enjoy, awesome things on their way!

So just to keep you all updated. I have just had a custom gauge cluster made for myself by The_enD (http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showuser=34901)
I went with short pods, no tint, no gloss, white rim and the word CELICA printed across the centre. and here are a couple of pictures:   The gauge cluster has been shipped but I am yet to receive it, cannot wait honestly! I also have on the way a pair of Lexus ES 300 Door Strikers which I bought off richee3 (http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showuser=9542) I have finally gotten around to actually being able to remove the stock strut brace and now have put on the 3 piece TRD strut brace : Due to some rust parts of it will need to be repainted, so I am considering painting it white (040) to match the car and add some colour to the engine bay. What do you guys think? A friend of mine is selling me his HKS Mushroom Air Filter which I am quite excited to get, will be getting a blue mushroom part for it  But here is a picture of it currently: Tell me what you guys think, I have finally finished exams so have time to work on the car Oh and also just a picture I took leaving work
