Hello, my name is Toua Vang, I currently live in MN and have always been a Toyota my whole life.
Some of you know this car from before as this was previously snapshotgt's Celica. The story of acquiring the car: After my 5GC GTS and my S/T 20V AE102G, I was in the market for something unique (that's Toyota) and rust free so that meant travelling out of MN. Long story short, almost got a camry all-trac from the west coast or a 5gc from the east coast. Ended up in south coast to get Colin's 1MZ 6GC. 18 hour drive home and my very first ticket (speeding); totally worth it. First mod: 20mm/25mm spacers on the front/rear with the 7gc wheels. Nearly sits flush with the vehicle. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Other things I have done so far: Audio system: A small sub and amp New intake filter: Coned shaped K&N filter to replace the old cylindrical one. Euro riser blocks: Reps from Teo, highly recommend his stuff. Wheels and tires: Fixed my brother's curb-rash 5-Zigen FN01RC and new paint w/ some new Yokohama S Drives.

Lol getting it back on track.
Need to do some rear brake pads since they're so old, any recommendations? Mind as well fix up the Avalon calipers while I'm at it for the front. Oh and I forgot, an alignment too. but I'm debating if I want to camber the front or not w/ a 5mm spacer or something... Car needs buffing as well, scratches appearing again. I told myself I'd ceramic coat it once I paint it again but... That's not for a while. Still gotta paint my rear spats and fix up the roof wing too while I'm at it. TOO MUCH TO DO, TOO LITTLE MONEY. |
