I just find it hard to believe in a world where we can send people to the moon, we still have crappy roads.


I know! I was watching some History channel show predicting our economy is going to get so bad that we won't have enough money to repair these current (still crappy) roads and eventually all of our major roadways will be gravel-ish. mad.gif

I sure hope not..


Better reason to make a rally car!

Whats up?! Its been awhile! I've pretty much been taking a break from the "car game" lately because I have been so busy with work (swing shift, bleh kindasad.gif) but been doing some small things here and there. Also in the process of getting a place with a 1500 sq. ft. garage so my motor is on the hopefully soon to do list, lol also some new shoes.

So not much has changed in the last almost year. Still slammed as **** wink.gif. A few months ago i got backed into in a parking lot twice AT THE SAME TIME by two high, idiot teens (who were friends, dafuq). Gt4 bumper ruined frown.gif. Their insurance is covering it but they can't repair my bumper because of the damage on the corner and have yet to find a replacement. So if anyone has a hook on a gt4 bumper, let me know!

Here's a couple random pics i've taken kinda lately, sorry for dirtyness, the car got about negative 3 washes this winter kindasad.gif.



Took spoiler off for a little.. Only like it from like one or two angles, but meh.



Here is the damage frown.gif




Lol oil change pic, why not.

Really love the styling and the way you have done this, very attractive car, always thought the GT front end suits having the rear spoiler too, aggressive from front to back that way smile.gif

Great job!

I have to re-do my exhaust before I can go that low. It scrapes on everything right now and sits 2" above the ground. Car sits around 5", so as soon as I tuck it up more, car can go lower.

Well guys, I have mixed emotions as i write this post, but here goes..

I just got a new car! It's a 2006 BMW Dinan S1 330i (E90) with sport/premium/cold weather packages, 6 speed manual transmission, one owner, 60,000 miles!

Needless to say I am super stoked, but am sad to say it is now the Celica's time to go. I had a lot of fun with it and learned a ton being my first car and all, and I will always miss the attention that it gets. But basically I am going to need to start looking for a home for her. I would love to sell it whole but honestly, I think it is more worth my while to part the car out as there are for sure some parts other people would enjoy and I don't think anyone would buy this car with 235000 mile motor/chassis and bad paint for anywhere near what I would like to get.

So that being said, I would like to know if anybody is interested in some parts off my car. Any parts. Motor included, both the used 5s and 19,000 mile 3s. I also have 4 trannys, s53,s54,e154f,e153 w/lsd. Every part in my profile will eventually be available. I can make a more formal post later as well as add a list of what will be available.

Im not 100% sure when I am tearing into it but I just wanted to gauge some interest in the parts before I start making it official.

It would be easiest if you just post in this thread as my pm's are usually full, but i will try to empty them.

Thank you guys!

I know, I never intended on selling it and honestly wouldn't if I had a place to keep it and all my parts for it.

Naw, it's a 4 door. My preference was a 2 door for sure (was also looking at e46 330ci's and e36 M3's) but I just couldn't pass this beauty up.

Ill make an off topic post soon. I gotta get some like 19x9.5 front, 19x10.5 rears asap!

I'm interested in a couple of things, mainly the s53, e153 and the battery tray and hold-down brackets.

Psh, I liked it more than the celica before I even started the car. Exterior is beautiful, interior is amazing, 280hp to the crank and awesome handling with the Dinan suspension upgrades. And rear wheel drive! I am seriously in love with this car biggrin.gif.

I know, 4 doors is going to be weird getting used to. I'd love to supercharge, but that's the one kind of ****ty thing. Bmw only made the e90 330i in 06. After that they did only the 335's (forced induction) and 328's. So the engine in my car was only made 1 year and although it is a great engine there is not that much aftermarket stuff for it aside from the Dinan upgrades it already has. Perhaps i could make a custom kit somewhere down the road, but for now I like this car where it is at aside from wheels tongue.gif .

Interested in the TRD quickshifter - you said 'newer version' though, so is it not the 33530-ST000 ?

Cool, I'll make some notes and let you guys know when the time comes.

Yeah, after a certain point I stopped caring at all, haha. You know you are at that point when you bang frame or scrape really bad and your first reaction is just a smile and laugh. I love driving a slammed car tongue.gif .

To my understanding TRD made a quickshift kit and then later revised and made a quickshift kit v2 so to say that was an even shorter throw than the other. This is the "v2" one. Either way, it is a genuine TRD quickshift kit.

Means a lot that my car will remain on the list biggrin.gif It honestly makes me feel really good that other people like what I worked so hard to get to, and hopefully it all won't be forgotten, I certainly will never forget this car.

Yep, pods and hatch plastic will have your name on them when the time comes and the coilovers as well if you would like them. I say if you would like them because you will more than likely have to do as I did when I purchased them and that is replace the struts. You don't HAVE to, but I would recommend it as my ride height and stiffness have kind of done work to these ones. One of them is blown and I think one other on its way out, other 2 seem fine, but still might be worth replacing. I have been driving on them like they are, so you could, but replacements are easy to get and only like $125 per corner. Then you have a fresh set of coils, thats what I did when I bought these.
