Project 6g Celica 20v completed, Then and Now Options

[netrata]

Well I got my car back from the paint shop yesterday. I am finally done with what I wanted to do with the car. The 20v 4age was swapped onto the car back in Febuary 2006 and was up and running in March. I managed to keep my a/c system and power steering using custom made parts. The car was in the shop for repaint early June and I slapped on 18" rims and sold my 17" ADR's. This is as far as I can go with the car because of lots and lots of bills. It's been almost $10,000 into the celica to get it back to running condition and so forth. Below is several picks from beginning to end. Enjoy!

When the car was in it's original state:

Ok, this is all of the pics I got so far. Maybe I'll have plans on doing more to the car, but bodykit and splitters is out of the question (I'd feel sick about cracks and chips ). I want to keep it looking as stock as possible. Maybe go with Carbon fiber interior panels, put back my sound system, and Curren tails,but that's as far as i'll go.

The car looks great! It's nice to see another 4A-GE in a Celica. Like Dustin said, how do you like driving the car with the new motor?

Honestly, it may be less powerful than a 3sgte celica....but it still is a kick a** ride to be driving around. It has alot more power then the 7AFE that's for sure. But it's only noticeable when you rev high enough for the vvt to do it's job. The engine's a screamer at 7+ rpm. I wish I could get more power, but I am satisfied with the outcome of the car.
