SOLD!!! MODS PLEASE DELETE, thank you all for being interested and for all the support. Options

[shin]

Yup... it's my turn to sell it... baby's due in acouple of months so i'll have to get a new car, a 4dr.... pics and stuff are in my profile. i'm asking $7000 firm.

there are acouple of flaws
1) hatch gas struts needs replacing, doesn't stay up every now and then
2) power side mirrors switch needs replacing, never got to replacing it.
3) sunroof goes up but not back
4) couple of dings on front & rear bumper from NYC street parking... people can't park here in the city...

other than the flaws listed above it runs excellent and fast. it's got all the nice stuff from leather seats to GT4 front end and jdm tails.

i've spent lotsa time and money on my celi. i try to get the best parts for my celi whenever i can. you guys can tell from the parts i have like the Jspeed front and rear strut braces to the BLITZ blm gauges.. hopefully the next owner will be able to appreciate wat i did and continue wat i wasn't able to complete.

i intend to sell it for $7k.

[RbrtNdrws]

Shin, is the car still for sale, I assume? I'm kinda interested, hows the gas mileage with the turbo, and what hp are you making right now..? I'm all the way in NC but i'm definitely interested..

[jayi12-15psi]

[hurley97]

you can fit a car seat back there Vin! [no really, a guy with a vert was at CSP with 2 car seats in the back]

Well, if you must...

Great looking car, turbo install done by the best. Good Luck with the sale Vin

[shin]

[shin]

thanks dustin. miss them good ol days.. 18 straight hrs of work and no sleep. guys i don't wanna see the celi go too, but when her mum, my mum, wife and everyone else in the family thinks it's not suitable for the baby... i really don't have a choice

[dugunz]

Hey whats goin on (I'm the guy in Long Island NY) Just wanted to let you know that I am still interested but im having slight problems with my home situation. My roomate is moving out the end of next month and I'm waiting on answers from a few other people to see if there moving in. If I can find another roomate soon I would like to take a better look at you celica. If not then my rent is gonna double for me and I probably wont be able to afford the car. Just hang tight, times are kinda tough for me right now. I'll let you know as soon as possible. Thanks.

[shin]

no problem. the celi ain't going anywhere yet. just let me know when you think you're ready to buy the celi. don't force yourself if you're having financial difficulties.

[dugunz]

no problem. the celi ain't going anywhere yet. just let me know when you think you're ready to buy the celi. don't force yourself if you're having financial difficulties.

Yea, I tend to do that with cars. Thats why I'm scared to look at it yet. I'm probably gonna cream myself and hand you a wad of cash as son as I see it.

[shin]

lol aiite. just let me know.

[block]

this sold yet? im putting my interest back on it if not..hehe

[RbrtNdrws]

Shin, I'm interested in the car, but I'm too far away. The drive to NYC would be too far just to look at the car and decide if I like it.

[shin]

i understand. not like you've seen the car before. just gotta keep looking i guess. time's running out for me.. baby's due soooon..

[shin]

BUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMPPPPP

[InfamousChappy]

I want it. I've been toying with the idea to either do a 3sgte conversion or buy a new car. 7 grand 'eh? You might just have it sold...Tennessee is a long way from the Big Apple though..And my only free time is gonna be on weekends. Anyways..This week I'm organizing money.

all super high quality silicone couplers and clamps by high temp silicone.
460cc injectors, with 2 bar map.
HKS SSQV (the REAL deal, not some cheap ebay copy)
VERY nice front mount intercooler
blitz BLM gauges, 60mm....i cant emphisise enough how BADASS these gauges are. SUPER high quality.

[shin]

[shin]

BUMPPPPPPPppppppPP

[shin]

no one's interested??? bumppppp

[TomPoz]

Shin, just tell "the women" that you can't sell the car, no one is seriously interested. Then convince them that there is no problem with baby onboard, even the stroller will fit in the trunk. If you need evidence I can take some pics of my family (wife, daughter 3-year-old, son 1-year-old) and stroller in the GT4 (which has smaller trunk than regular Celi).

[shin]

yea... tried that a long time ago.... wife don't like sitting in the back seat.. mum hates small cars...

[shin]

baby just born. need to sell celi fast...

[shin]

bumpy bumpy bump bump

[RbrtNdrws]

Shin, I'm still interested but I have two problems.

1 being distance, and another is the steering wheel. I remember you wrecked the car a while back and I didnt know if thats why you swapped the steering wheel because of the airbag, or just to get a new wheel. Anyway do you think it would be possible to get the stock wheel w/ a working airbag put back in?

If so, let me know.

Thanks

[celicaboston1983]

go ebay or put it on autotrader you'll probley get more $$$ and sell it faster. Unless its super cheap I dont see any of the members taking it off ur hands

yes. i swapped the steering wheel 1 for looks and 2nd it cost too much for a stock steering wheel with airbag.

[RbrtNdrws]

But, if I really wanted to get a stock wheel w/ bag I could and I could get it hooked up and all? Also, I was wondering if you could take some more pics of the interior, I would appreciate it.

[shin]

yea ya just have to hook it back up. i'll try to take more pics when i have time, currently, baby's taking all my time so gotta be alil patient. if ya want, search around the interior forum or off topic. i posted afew interior pics. but yea. i'll post new ones when i have time

[DomGT]

I searched and found this pic, since Shin is busy with his baby.



If I find more I'll post them.
