[Lil-Joe101]

Most of u have read and responded to this topic and have givvin some good insight. Well I finally got a reply from the editors at modified mag.
Here is the reply they sent. If you would like to see more recognition for the 6gc simply submit ur pics to them. I know I will. Here it is judge for yourself.

Eddie,

WE havent had ANY 6th gen Celica submissions and frankly, I rarely come across them at shows. When I do they simply arent built to where they can be featured. Show me some Celicas that are feature worthy and I just may put them in the mag.

Thanks,

Best of luck! I have doubts on ours getting in due to the fact that it's really a basic 3S-GTE swap that's been set up to work very well (250/260 WHP/WTQ is pretty good IMO on the CT26 with what we've got done). Most mags like to see over the top power, over the top bodywork, ect. I'm all for the power, but can you really utilize 350+ in a Celica, even if you did put the LSD in it? I think what most of us here have with our swaps and such is a near perfect balance of a sporty street car that is reliable, looks great, ect. Before I wrecked it I would CONSTANTLY get questions and compliments on the car. They're just not common, so they're not popular, so magazines discount them.

Throw a 2JZ in and see what happens though.
