Tigawoods' 1995 Celica, Racing n Stuff Options

[Tigawoods]

they support the new rad very well. Those grounding kits are proven to give like 5 extra hp. But its something Id never be able to notice

i'd like some nice new wheels so i can get a actual wide tire for the 3s. But i am sadly to lazy to look into fitment.

[Tigawoods]

im slowing down on autocross. so im looking to just have it be a nice daily low slow n loud car. the money I'll be saving from those autocrosses will be invested in the wheels

[robmilkshakes]

Tigawoods, do you happen to drive eastbound on 32, towards I95, most mornings a little before 8 or so? If not there is another blue celica with white wheels around Columbia.

Excuse me if I may sound like a creeper, but I owned a 5th gen and honestly seeing any other modified celicas out on the road was a rare occurance for me, especially other blue ones, so for when I do, its memorable. I used to use 6gc for reference for a few things so after seeing, what I now assume to be your car several times now, I had to spend a few minutes poking around this morning to find out whose it was.

That would be me on my way to work! From what I have seen so far since I moved here is that there are alot of Celica's but for the most part they are unmodified and driven by 40+ yr old women. Even this morning I saw one behind me and got excited, but when they pulled up next to me, I could have been driving a Geo Tracker for all they care haha.
Where you into modifying your 5th gen?

[robmilkshakes]

Nice! I am usually heading westbound towards Clarksville, I work for Antwerpen Toyota.

Haha that is sadly true and most that are still around are in very rough shape, especially where I live, they're falling apart.

My 5th gen was my dd, so I kept things pretty mild. I had a full exhaust, lowered on H&Rs, and a few other small things. I sold it back in January.

Oh cool, I live off of 108, a little further down. I was excited to see a toyota dealership in such close proximity, just in case I need some replacement parts.

Great color on the car.
