well, its been a while since ive been on here and there has been a reason for that. the last thing i did to my car was the body work. Cops have been REALLY and i mean REALLY anal about things lately. ive been getting tickets up the ass for bull crap. Speeding 5mph over the limit, driving with my high beams, having a neon license plate frame that didnt even work, not using my turn signal COMPLETELY through a lane change, and crap like that. i think my car draws more attention now. but i dont know. so thats where my money has been going for the past few months. (can u believe i never got one warning, i think its just bad luck)

well things are kinda turning around. im a senior in high school, and now got a 150000 dollar scholarship to got to the school of my choice. and on my first day of freshman year my parents told me that what ever scholarship money i got, they would give it to me cash since thats money they WOULD be spending on me anyways. So im looking into buying an suv or some big truck for long trips and such. ive kinda lost interest in going fast and all. im more relaxed now, and need more space in a car. So im looking into buying a 4x4 ford f-150 or a toyota sequoia or something. then im gonna try to sell my car for about 7000 dollars and put that money into my new cars stereo and all. well its been a long road, and i as just about to buy my 4age 20v black top w/ 6sp tranny too, had the money and all. well, looking like im gonna be hanging up the hat.

almost 2 years later, this is what i had
94 st
gt-four bumper, hood and royal saphire pearl/blue mica metallic
17in acuza road concepts wheels
sony x-plod head unit (one that flips down and a cd tray comes out)
4 200w speakers, 800w amp
reverse indiglo's w/ blue needles
and custom fiberglass interior same color as outside paint.
ill have some pics up soon.

i plan to pick up the project again, when i have enough money probably after i get my degree and start my carreer as an architect. i love the celica too much. someday, just i dont have the bank for what i want right

Maybe you're just unlucky... I personally have a heavy foot, and drive a pull-me-over-red car, lowered with rims, no front plate and a leaky exhaust buzzin around... not to mention, I frequently slide corners, and have a hard time keeping the damn thing under 80 on the freeways. I've had only one ticket to date... doing 74mpg in a 45 zone coming from a freeway to a city... and I wasn't even driving my Celica at the time... i was driving a dark champagne colored 2000 Camry... rolleyes.gif

I better be careful now... since my liscense expired on the 9th, of last month...=D
