I've had that one for a while along with a 2000GT. I don't have the black GT4 that Brigette mentioned though.

Those are neat. I have to get a pair for the Miata as well, they're supposed to quell a lot of NVH.

I should have said "a set that quells," not implying that yours do, you just reminded me of another mod. I did not notice the Box's absence, I hope he's okay as well. Today I received a JDM box by way of Hong Kong...

OOo that's cool.
They sell the covers in some other colors, you should get some for your Celi and the Lexus chromed strikers too. -------------------- |

Celica's been gone since late last year.
 That's why I want a Faff model, since I no longer have a real Celica, may as well have an aspirational model.The Miata door bits are really just a replacement block for better fit, no flash, which is why I liked your options. https://mossmiata.com/delrin-door-bushings-...ASABEgJzgvD_BwE I hope our Box hasn't fall pressure. -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

They also make something like that for MR2's and a lot of convertible sporty cars too. I'm not sure how rigid the Celica is, I know that the areas around the doors does flex some as I used to have window adjustment issue that cause the door to 'pop' over big bumps when the chassis flexed. It doesn't feel noodley like a convertible does but I'm sure some additional bracing would be noticeable, but that bracing makes my already poor ground clearance even poorer, is hard to find, is dubious in efficacy, or all the above.

I guess Box, is officially missing....
last active 3 months ago -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |
