6G Celicas Forums

I visited Cali for a week in December. I live in STL.

My big for sale post. See images.
I need to sell stuff so I can buy more stuff. New and Used. Prices without shipping. Paypal is preferred method of payment. Prices USD.

1) DIY bbk rotors for those who want to convert to 5x114. They include machined rotor rings to fit the hub. You reuse the rings, and when you need new rotors you just order a set and either get them redrilled or order than redrilled. Corvette rotors. I also have the PN for the wilwood calipers that fit them, or can sell my superlites with them for extra. You will need to make your own brackets, or unless you use camry spindles for a conversion, then I have a bracket you can use to copy. Only used in a couple seasons of autox. $75+ shipping. If interested in the calipers, we might work out a deal. This is also a solution if you want to make a BBK for a camry.

2) I have a new RPS 6puck clutch disc for the NA fwd celica transmission. Based on the part number reference it looks like it fits any transmission that fits a 5s. It might fit a BEAMS as well. I have a new RPS clutch cover but it seems to be for a 3sgte. It may fit the 5s as well. Sold as is, and please research if this fits your setup. Pics show both disc and clutch. Here is a link to the RPS clutch. 6 puck sprung hub. Taking offers. Link is to show example of RPS clutch. http://www.mvpmotorsports.com/Templates/fr...SubFolderID=143

3) • Odyssey small battery tray. Weld or bolt in. No hardware, just frame. $35
• Wide clip on rearview mirror $8

• 2 1/4" silicone hose for intercooler pipe. A little dirty buy new. $7 for 2.
(5th gen parts, may work on 6th gen)
• Airbag computer. Used, never had airbag deploy. $12
• NEW non tweeter cover. (Goes in the corner of the door)Front right $15
• 7th gts gen center cap $8
• FWD rad overflow/ fill container $15
• NEW Pair speed bleeders for m7x1 for front Ceilca caliper $7


4) Beams intake manifold and all to attach it to the head Small ding in one runner and a few scuffs. $175

I have a guy who builds coilovers that I can get to weld on the brackets. BC sells their mounts separate but their tread is a different pitch than FA. I am leaning towards fortune due to their digressive valving and potential upgrades. I only want to lower max 2". I have tein HAs and sadly they only handle well at 1.3" lowering. Going 1.9, which is what I want, took away too much travel. I have spoke to BC a bit, and they could build me a 3 way adjustable setup but its going to cost 2800. Right now I am trying to find something that will perform better than my teins, at the height I want.

EDIT: I talked to them over the phone. They told me I could just order a different lower mount and I can make it fit. Hopefully this will be a solution for me. Thanks for your info.

Thanks. How much height adjustment do you think the fronts have from the lower mount? They list them for the 185, but actually do not make them. I found out the oem 205 insert is the same dimensions as the 185, so I thought about buying these for the 205 and having the lower mount welded with oem brackets. From my research these seem about the best deal on mid range coilovers I can find. Everything else of the 185 is either entry level, or high end. I can't spend 4k-10k on coilovers, so I am hoping to make something like this work.

Did your fortune auto coilovers come with the lower leg for super strut or connect to the oem part?

XIIImotorsports is working on something, so I will report back once they make some headway.

Let us know if they do it. They told me unless they sell the celica parts they had made they are not planning any more stuff. They made a caster camber plate. I think only a few bought them.

Its been a long while since I updated. I recently started a youtube channel on the car's build. I am using it to learn more on video editing and production as well as track the car's progress. I get my audio better sorted by the 3rd episode. Planning on doing interviews with other gtfour owners as well as layout how I make some future mods and how they effect the car. Its weird being in front of a camera but hopefully the more I do these the better I get.

Went to a car show with Trumanpriest and a 6gc member on Sunday.

Most of the pics can been seen here: http://cmsgt4.blogspot.com/2013/08/import-...f-2013-stl.html

I am hoping to see a prototype in another week. It will be much cheaper than the MRP kit so it will likely not have the same features. I think he is trying to use off the shelf parts to keep replacement costs down. I know Some camry parts like the ball joint as well as the rav4's can be swapped as well. These are intended for gtfours, so he said since they are meant to be rally cars, I want this to be rally strong.

Thanks. Small update. I was experimenting with my front lip and 205 skirts. The skirts are resting on a ps'd box, so they are not as fitted as they will be when done. The rear is the concept I will have to make. I was thinking of going black till I was sick of it, then I could paint it body color.
Due to the kid and work I have been pretty busy. Likely just doing the roll center adjuster and a/c this year.

We might be able to get something made for the rear if we can get the fronts made. The fronts suffer more dramatic issues than the rear, so that will be priority at the moment. The harder part for the rear will also be two separate group buys. I don't think the AWD and fwd guys will be able to use the same for the rears.

I am talking to TechnoToyTuning, the same ones who made the tie rod flip kit about making extended ball joints. The tie rod flip kit was meant for the MK1 MR2 but fits the 5th gen celica. If the tierod and ball joints of the 5th gen also fit the 6th gen, this would be a solution for your guys as well.
For those wonder what roll center and bump steer is, check out this article. http://www.motoiq.com/magazine_articles/id...oll-center.aspx
They say if we can get 10 people interested, they can make something similar to this for much less. He expects around $140 for the ball joint and the flip kit is around $70.

Note the final design will be different from this one.


We currently have 6 people interested at alltrac.net so if anyone here is also interested please let me know. Or if you can verify the 5th gen parts fit the 6th gen.

Thanks. They grab as good as they look.

Calipers are still on ebay at a lower price.

Just finished my front BBK. Car is done for a while.

You can put me on the list for third, but I won't be buying more parts till I sell my calipers. Hopefully this week they sell.

If your interested in my gold front st205 calipers, I would take the skirts as partial trade. If not, I may pick the skirt up from you when they sell.

Nope. Needs something more in the 300mm range unless you used wrx rotors and pad spacers.

The same way as any fwd non superstrut models. They will bolt on, you will need to come up with a rotor solution though.

Well my order came in from 1st toyota. For what I paid for shipping, the packaging is pretty ****ty. I miss when I could get parts directly from TRD. They also did not send my wheel bearings, which I needed the most right now. I was hoping to drop off my spindles this week to get the new hubs pressed. Maybe it will still show, but who knows.

Anyhow, here is my nice new corner lights and the supra front emblem. I had to cut the top peg off, and cut 2/3's off the bottom peg. It fits well though. My old corners go into storage for those in case moments.

Thanks. I relisted the calipers.

I have the intake hose here: http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...mp;#entry981710

Which was about the time I bought them. I guess when you sit on a part for years you think it might get more rare and you can at least get your money back. At this price I am already loosing money.

auction ends in 20 minutes.
