Hey everyone,
I'm sorry that there has been no news lately, but I do have a couple of things to say  I have since the last post purchased the following: - 17" Caldina GT4 Wheels - SS-III Front Splitters - SS-III Grille (Arrived but haven't put on yet) - SS-III Grille Badge - TRD Grille Badge - Set of 4 Projector Headlights I'm about to purchase a set of Euro Riser blocks, and am on the hunt for a boot off a pre-facelift gen 6. Am hopefully going to sell my SS-III riser blocks soon. I'm also planning for some coilovers in the near future I'll keep everybody posted, can't wait for some pictures to come your way

Hey guys,
Just a quick update, today the prefaclift bootlid conversion was successful and here are a few images: Now Representing the 2 post spoiler!    I personally think it looks better But honestly i don't have anything wrong with the three post, I changed for the main reason of having spoiler options. I have decided to go with the Euro Spec Riser Blocks which I will be getting in hopefully a couple of weeks, currently in the negotiation stage.My Caldina GT4 rims are being picked up by a courier hopefully tomorrow and hopefully will arrive by the end of the week I will notify you all of other purchases when i have news Just a few pictures of my SPREE LED kit that was promised:

Hey all,
Just a quick update letting you all know that I have purchased my Euro/Half Riser Blocks from jbod here are a couple of pictures:Top:  Bottom:  Should hopefully arrive in a week or so Here are a couple of examples of 6GC's with the Euro/Half Risers: rentaspace (also has the Caldina GT-Four rims):  Shigexile:  My Caldina GT-Four rims have also arrived and will be hopefully on the car tomorrow, just waiting for new tires to arrive (Kumho: 215/45/R17) photos will be up when rims are on the car Also just wanting to say that a project is very hard to predict from the beginning with the mind constantly changing, so therefore as of now I'm wanting to say that is is more of my own ss-III/ trd project, set up how I desire it to look just wanted to clear up that as of the moment the plans are not for an exact ss-III replica. I really hope you all stay tuned and interested in my thread, because it will be far from disappointing (I hope haha)

Looking nice man good work
 I agree with it sitting abit high came out of a mall the other day and there was another white celica parked right beside mine but it was sitting at stock height and it made my lowered one look so much nicer! Defiantly look into it will transform the look of the car
