So its been a long time since i got on 6gc. For those that remember, my car got totalled by a lady that ran across four / three lanes of traffic and nailed me.

Insurance money finally came in!

Got a 2001 Toyota Celica GT-S Six-Speed!

Exciting!

Im looking at a 300zx... if i were to buy another celi it would have to be a GT with mods or a swap to a jdm 3sgte or so

300zx twin turbo... worth it?

My car's life was ended this morning... i was driving and some old lady cut across traffic and just tore the side off of my car.

Im looking for another car, possibly within the 1-6000 dollar range. Does anyone know what kind of car would be ideal for me?

Im looking for a sports car, must be 5 or 6 speed, and its gotta look nice too! Any ideas?

NOT HONDA CIVIC

i like black... red fades, and just doesnt seem to suit the celica... white is nice, but black takes it all for me...

Anyone planning a Tennessee meet, or anywhere near here soon? I'd like to meet up and get to know some people, maybe learn a little bit about cars and the sixth gen! Get some ideas from other people. Let me know if there is anything going on!

Its been a long long time since i've been on, and when i was posting, i barely knew anyone.

Im back now, and i hope to get to know most of you!

I have a black '94 Celica GT, just fixed. Bought it wrecked.

I had to get a new front end... it sucked...

So far i had to get
-New front end
-New headlights
-New hood
-New windshield
-Fresh paintjob
-Dents fixed

But! I hope to style my car soon, maybe someone can help me figure out completely what i want to do with it?

I bought my car a few months ago with a few dents, and put an aftermarket front bumper on, and decided to get it painted.

My father worked it out with a friend to paint my car and fix the dents for only the price of the supplies! Awesome!

I've been waiting for 2 months and a week... they are just painting it this week.

It sucks whenever you get such a good deal that you cant complain, but you miss your car so bad that you WANT TO....

oh well... its coming home monday!

I found a box in my car, and noone knew what it was...

coaxial connections and tons of wires... i thought it was something for audio but it turns out the it MAY be for a wireless device... but its connected to my antenna and all kinds of stuff

probably someone listening in on my conversations and stuff... oh well

I still havent taken it out... because... its cool to have a box that noone knows what it really is in your car

When i bought this car, the body and interior had a lot wrong with it... dents all over the place...

I got the outside completely painted and fixed... now for the interior

Seats and everything are very nice... nothing i can find wrong except the dash trim is cracked and whoever painted it did a HORRIBLE job...

http://www.360carcustoms.com/d471-186.html

Lots of trim options here... anyone know a cheaper place, and what finish should i get ? I have black interior with the gray/black seats and the car is black itself... what would look good?

I was wondering if anyone with a black celica would let me use their pictures of their celica to create some signatures...

I dont have any pictures of my celica up yet, but im bored and would like to start working on one.

Anyone mind if i use their celica as a base for my photoshop skills??? =D

Ok then i've decided to keep it and do the swap (i found a 3sgte... actually 2... one for 800 and one for 1400 not sure on gen) ....

Afterwards, what mods do i want? I need something mid-price range, not extremely expensive but not cheap as hell... i want the car to be respectable in both looks and power / performance

i plan on erebuni full body kit with angel eyes so far

any ideas? (Black paint, probably 15% tint, and not sure on rims yet)

Help with rims and mods!

Wanna get a list started before i start, so i can have a general price range for starters... i realize that once i acheive that goal, ill probably spend more... but i need goals to reach first

I just bought a 1994 Celica GT (Black) at a junkyard here in tennessee...

The guy told me that some kid left it here after wrecking it, because he wanted to get a new celica anyways... apparently the kid or his father was rich ...

I picked up this Celica for 500 dollars...

Repairs :
- New Front Bumper
- New Front Windshield
- Radiator
- Distributor

That is ALL that was required to make this car run PERFECTLY (mechanically sound). My father and i can find nothing else wrong with this car.

Next thing that was wrong, and i just found out about 3 days ago was that the frame was bent a little...
I got this fixed, all the dents taken out, and a full new paint job.

My question is...

Should i spend a lot of money and get a 3rd gen 3sgte swap (the labor is free considering my father and i will do it) , or should i just use this car as an everyday driving car, and spend my money on something else.

I just dont want to spend all that money on a car, and then realize that it wasnt worth it , or that i could have spent my money on something much nicer.

Any suggestions?
