It was me that supplied Hector with his splitters, as for knowing the value, I guess I did, in the UK they go for about £10-£20 but most people don't want them on their cars and replace them with TRD corner spats, hope you get what you are looking for them as they are obviously quite rare in the States, I didn't need mine and they were lying in my shed, when I seen Hector wanted a set I was happy to supply them FOC and he paid the postage, he's happy and I'm happy to have helped out a decent fellow so it's win win.

Been there.....done that!

One day I shot Burt because he was organizing his collection of butterscotch candies in tight spandex. His tantalizing tastebuds got hypnotized when I discovered tuna swimming erotically over Michael Bolton's dirty little sock. Michael exploded into shrapnel, due mostly to the weird technicolor feces that was rancid throughout his origami, festering in toilet water. However, when David Hasselhoff pissed his grandmother's money away fraudulently, she sporked meatloaf into his eye and kung-fu licked staples to his ear.

He didn't remember that crying wasn't allowed and Puerto Rico banned it because chiuauas explode when people had Taco-Bell. Logic tells acrobats information regarding monkeys enormous bananas rapidly disappearing. If president brainless Bush has had any boyfriends with 22" bananas wrapped in pink frosting, then latina hotties would scream bloody murder "Johnaton, what's that?". Meanwhile I was underneath my refrigerator exfoliating lechuga pubic reactors after ernie wiped magma flavored crocodile oil all over my grandma's walker.

Sometimes we would inseminar antibacterial suppositories whereas luke skywalker thugged manny Ramírez at hospice.
We shouted "WHASSUP DAWG!!" As medicinal remedies killed Mitsubishi infidels who, like most crappy horse sounding bicycles, never able to grow wings travelled to SPARTAAAAAAAA. ARUUUFFFF ARUUUFFFF ARUUUFFFF said love-struck freaky monkey-rabbit, who recently fell in love with Mel Gibson who went to jail again for dressing up like a mid evil scottsman and runnign down the street yelling freedom!

MEANWHILE Captain Kirk burst into a bubble laxative but couldn't find his cell-phone charger because he is from Canada. As Stimpy humped freaky monkey-rabbit-wierdo,Ren bit his tongue during tough anal convulsions. Received kimchee from coomer and jesus for Christmahanukwaanzakah while sitting menacingly eating golden sperm that sparkled.

Suddenly, my gay Honda friend said I was an idiot for VTECCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC-YO!, cause my D-series blew chunks all over Ron Burgundey's enormous MAGICAL JAZZ FLUTE! Meanwhile, magical hookas started flaming wildly during intercourse with disease ridden golden grahams. The stoners willingly gave them a chunk of rancid yak goobers on ice. That was absolutley AWESOME!

Elsewhere,

What colour is the smoke?

Looking good Hector, I'm getting a kick knowing that some parts from my car are enjoying there new home in New Mexico

Like this pic of my car Mighty hood ornament

Sounds very likely that the belt has gone or needs tightening are you getting any squealing noise at all? I had to tension mine recently.

That is gorgeous Kaos, will be doing some black on my car too, rear number plate surround, bonnet and raiser blocks.

Thank you very much Vincent the visors arrived today, we did get hit with a small customs charge but it wasn't too much, you have made a lot of Gen 6 owners in Ireland very happy. Excellent service as usual mate.

Couldn't wait to get it fitted

Right I have had a busy couple of days thought I would share with you what I have done, decided to carry on with the interior changes;

Decided to get rid of the cloth on the door card;



Cut some yellow leatherette to the same size as the cloth (ok I'll be honest the missus done this mod for me as she loves doing this sort of thing, I just took the door cards off);



Glued and fitted the leatherette;



Refitted to the car;



Have also been painting the interior plastics of the past few days, would have liked to have gave them one more top coat but ran out of paint, may give them another wee spruce up in the future but for now I'm really happy with what I have done;

Before;




And after;










Need to get a ciggy lighter

On a roll so when the Boot Visor from Vincent's GB arrived today, had to get it fitted

Before;


After;


Looks really well on a yellow car

Dunno about towing but I got towed in my Celica yesterday morning by a Renault Megane 1.4lt and I was hating it couldn't start the engine so had no power steering and dodgy braking have to admit it was hairy.

Sorry I forgot to mention that I have also fitted some led's (footwells front and rear, puddle lights ~ under the doors when they open and a nice one in my Celica stereo blanking plate) promise I will post up some pics of these.

Brilliant show, we had an absolute blast even with our hangovers.... was a bit concerned though when I was driving to the show that the engine sounded a bit rough, myself and a few of the guys in the club had a good look round the engine and agreed that the rough noise seemed to be coming from around the alternator, water pump, power steering pump area seemed like one of the bearings was going. I had previously decided that I was getting the timing belt/water pump changed asap as I was unable to determine when I had bought the car when the last time timing belt was done, unfortunately on the trip back home the sound got worse, stopped the car for an inspection only to find that water was pissing from the water pump area, all I could do was take it easy and keep stopping to top up the water.

Bought a Timing Belt Kit, Water Pump and Thermostat for £120 ($187) got them fitted for £110 ($172) and now the old girl is running lovely with thankfully no long term damage done. So that's me up to date, next to do is get the bonnet, rear number plate surround and raiser blocks (when I get them from Vincent) sprayed black, get my wheels refurbed and some more subtle mods to the interior, will keep you good folks updated as and when these happen.

......Early start we had to be at venue for 08:30am.... dunno how I managed it but I did, got to the show and got the old girl parked up on the stand;





Note the fly-eye kit on rears and Toyota horny devil badge... thought the Big Yellow Taxi didn't look out of place amongst the other Celicas

OK so exhaust fixed, car cleaned, meeting up with the guys for a road trip to Dublin, amazing trip to Dublin there was about 10 Celicas in our convoy and we owned the road, riding double breast to hold back the traffic whilst we had some fun on the motorway/freeway 140mph was a common speed Drag racing on the open road FTW!

Arrived in Swords (outskirts of Dublin) at about 5pm, booked in to our hotel, quick shower and change and headed out for a serious night partying, one of the best nights I have ever had in my life (apart from the cost of booze in Southern Ireland )
was getting to bed about 5am........

I knew when I bought the car that the exhaust was split in two just before where it goes in to the back box, was my intention to replace the exhaust but needed a quick fix before I went to a show (Heatwave in Dublin) with CelicaIreland

Broken exhaust;


Pretty crude fix...but effective


Was lying on my back under the car smoking a ciggie and admiring my handiwork when I noticed a badge on the bottom of the back box, couldn't read it as it was so dirty so give it a rub with my finger to reveal this.....


Absolutely delighted a genuine TRD exhaust... gonna spend some dollars/pounds to get it fixed properly, not often you see these babies

Right folks have a few updates for you, been a busy couple of weeks;

Got rid of the standard steering wheel and fitted my momo;


Love the feel of this;


Have also changed the arm rest and gear gaitor will post up pics soon.

Thanks Ferni, maybe the next time you come over we'll have a gt4 engine for you to sneak in your suitcase

Vince have sent the postage money to you for the CelicIreland buy.

Really delighted with how the group buy has gone, you are a legend Vince, hopefully I will be able to paypal you all the shipping costs for the CelicaIreland group buy tomorrow.

That is absolutely gorgeous Ray, and having recently bought a yellow Gen 6 myself it has inspired me, I still prefer another of your customers rides though... Speedophile, the carbon bonnet and other parts that you supplied him are awesome.

Thanks for the comments folks. Bought a nice Momo Tornado F1 steering wheel and boss kit for the fine price of £50 ($77) delivered I just love Momo steering wheels so when I seen one of these beauties in yellow I just had to have it.

Sorry Hector I came off nightshift this morning and was absolutely shattered so went to bed, will go to the post office tomorrow morning and find out what the postage cost will be mate.

Will do Vince, it will be paid today definately, if I can't get in touch with him I'll pay you myself on his behalf.

Oops.... my bad, I really should read posts

Do you have any CEL's? check your spark plugs to see if any are not looking right, exhaust faults, anyone of these could be the cause of the car running rich, check for CEL's 1st http://www.toyotacelicaonline.com/error.htm
