Well i just got a '96 celica for 3600, i paid about 800 to a mechanice to just about replace and fix up everythign under the hood. Got new brakes and tires and now i want to do a bit of upgrading but i have no idea what to do!
my speakers are horrible but i have no idea what to buy i was on ebay and just bought some headlight bulbs on ebay but when they arrived they said they draw from 100- 170 watts, i'm not sure, but doesn't that seem like way to much?? i bought a speed chip, some new gauges and a new intake, seat covers (previous owner was a smoker), and a dash kit.... non of which i have installed yet i want to know what else i can buy to really make my baby stand out tho, i have a 1.8L 4 cylinder engine and just about everything else is stock... this is my first car, can anyone help me? --------------------  |

thanks guys... i emailed the guy about the light bulbs and he promises me that they have wiring protection but i'm skeptical, i also found out that the guy who sold me my celica lied to me and sold me a car without high beams, i asked him where the inner headlights were and he told me not to worry that those only come with the GT, so i have to now goto a jounk yard for some high beams, anyway here are all the parts i got, i'll take some pictures of my car a bit later so u guys can see the progression and no i didn't spend a ton on the speed chip but i guess i just wanted to believe it was true, because are cars really aren't the fastest... i'm also willing to put plenty into this car if i can make a radical change...
