Thought I could do my very own project topic!

I´ve been saving money, and from now to June the car will be gettin' new mods. The mods I´ve been thinking are
- custom CAI
- custom exhaust system
- New superlight rims, OZ Superturismo GT is a possibility, I´ll post bad photoshop pics if I get ideas!
- some subtle interior mods, bucketseats maybe
- GT-four rear spoiler

I was thinking of buying an HKS header, but I´ll keep to the stock header, I dont think there really is much difference in performance between them. The custom CAI an exhaust will be made out ... rosteri, which is more than I can translate to english they are made at my buddies enginetuning-shop, and I think they will be great. GT-four spoiler will be made out of glassfiber by a friend of mine, and he´s going to use his GT4 as a cast.

Superleggeras will be the last one to arrive, in june. I borrowed a picture from here and made a picture of a celica on ultraleggeras and it looked good, though I cant photoshop so i did it with PAINT

Feel free to tell what you think about the project.

Well if you are going short ram for daily use, atleast get a heat shield for that thing. You are basically going to be sucking in heat from the engine.

as the filter is located in the bottom half ot the regular box, it works as a shield for now, and it gives the filter cold air as the air flows from the piping.

also for your custom exhaust system, what sizes are you doing 2 1/4" or 2 1/2" piping mufflers and freeflowiee?? post pics when installed smile.gif


nice and shiny intake pipe, but what is that just above the airfilter a sensor of some sorts? mine just has idle hose and a small one for airflow sensor....

I haven´t really decided which piping im going to use, I´ll see what those guys at the shop offer mee, it´ll probably be 2,5" with a big jap-muffler..

And that sensor, it measures intake air temperature, and controlls the injection, so it knows when the engine is cold, and when to give it more fuel.
