Post a picture of your TOM`S racing pedals. Ps, I can rig up a blue ignition ring for you if you want, I have 2 spare clear rings, Toyota stopped putting them in Celicas after 1995, What I did was take a splice from the cigarette lighter power and run some wire through the dash plastics.

I think your ignition ring plastic might be black with no transparent bit....

Here's the difference, 1996 on the left, 1995 on the right:


PS. When I looked at my pedals closer it had some stupid chinese on the top and levin(???????) on the bottom, definitely not TOM`S ... Eww.

Did you order those splitters pre-painted or something? Projectors are the best exterior mod someone can do!

Hey Andy, I ordered the same indicators from trademe, turns out the guy I went to pick them up from has a shop full of them right around the corner from my house, PM me if you decide you'd like a pair of them and I'll be your middle man.

The trademe ones I've seen around, the splitters and rear endcaps from that cheap trademe kit look like TRD but the front splitters on the TRD ones have holes in the front (air dams or wateva).

Rusty I see you paid $1056 for the hight and low beam projetors. Is that the full price? does that include shipping?

I looked into Projectors, CPA in Wellington offered me a set for $880 brand new, NZD, I thought that sounded like a lot at the time. Bad call...

umm yes and no, i've heard it works best at high speed cornering, if you take out & check your stock strutbrace you can see how much movement it has (which cant be good) if it doesn't do anything it still looks like it adds 20HP laugh.gif

its kind of hard for me to tell at the moment since i dont have my celica wink.gif --- yup about 2weeks

You should be able to feel extra G's on your body from a stiffer setup... It looks like it would be very effective

a couple of my mates have seen it and the reckon it almost is a widebody on it, due to the angle of the sideskirts etc

I want to say it has more go-go but I don't know, but one thing for sure is that you can actually touch the extractors after going for a good run, I didn't notice the temp guage went down

I still got the badge, im just back to cleaning, got some autogel/polish stuff to hep bring up the shine, or I have metallic paint, which we used on my brothers rocket cover on his e30 BMW turned out real nice, so I dunno, will put the badge back on soon till then it sits up on my bedside table biggrin.gif

Well if your engine bay is cooler then your intake should be cooler, perhaps you'll notice it more at night.

I removed the heat shield from the SS-III too so the heat was also absorbed by the bonnet instead of being kept in, Probably wont do it on the GT-Four so crap doesn't drop through onto the engine.

Beautiful. You keeping that rear wing? Hopefully a red GT4 or SS-III spoiler will come up, or even a two post wing and you could get the dimensions of the riser blocks and make it with fibreglass. Two post wings have different mounting holes so it will have to be professionally filled and drilled.

i dunno I like my wing, I dont really want a SS-III wing because its not a SS-III, since its a SS-II

and yup wheels are next on the list, once I can kind some nice ones, except I cant find any I like/suit it

so start giving me ideas for wheels 16" or 17" nothing bigger than 38 offset (I think)...hmm maybe 17" by 7" ???

post up some pics so I have some ideas

Your car looks great so please don't take this the wrong way, but is your driver side (RHD from the looks of it) front splitter mounted a bit high towards the middle?
