6G Celicas Forums

Love those 5zigens! Used to have a set on my Acura, they are nice wheels for the price.

Tabatha my Tortie

I already miss my RSX




But, she's been replaced with this:

Convertibles are high maintenance cars in general.

Its not the end yet, just the beginning of it.

Hopefully Ill have my Taco by then

I wouldn't want a VW unless it is still under warranty or it was a project bug/ MKII GTI as a secondary vehicle



No more lip kit

Nice. I like the white on white, gonna look good when you get some tires on.

Bump for Sunday

Looks good! Can't wait to see it in person.

Congrats! I sure hope to see that thing at PSTOF this year

love the rev limiter right in the middle

Damn, they are quick to come right back.

Pretty cool! I love the Honda bikes from the 70s and 80s.

I have a Trail 70 that I've been working on little by little.

Lol. I think they are just clueless as to how to "pop" the hood. It seems a lot of people who have cars like that don't really know jack about them. Just so long as it runs and still looks good.

So BMW just wants to know how Toyotas get such good gas mileage lol..... At least that's what I took from that little bit of info.

And yes, BMW parts are crazy expensive to replace.

I have an RSX and am looking at my AWD options. But I will say, for FWD sport compacts, these little cars are great.

-Much like the Celica, interior is still one of the nicest (even for a 10 year old car)
-You have the very popular K20 that all the Civic kids are swapping into their car
-Aftermarket and OEM replacement parts are pretty easy to find
-I am a believer in hatchbacks after owning this car lol (so much cargo room for a 2 door)
-Gas mileage is around 22-24 city (very little lead foot)
-I've driven in the snow and these cars handle their own pretty well.


The only thing I would be cautious of is a lot of times these cars are previously owned by kids that beat the crap out of them, so you need to look into the history (carfax, ect..). They are very reliable, but I have heard a few stories of people having quite a few problems people didn't find out about until after purchasing the car.(thats why I bout my car completely stock)

Depending on the Civic Si you are looking at, the Ep3 is very comparable to the RSX. But the FA5 (06-10) have drive-by-wire and a few other options that make them a little more of a joy for car enthusiasts.

That's good IMO. I don't like tinkering around with cars that require taking half of the bay apart to get to something as simple as the battery

89' Nissan 240sx (only vehicle I didn't mod)-totaled

95' Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme- sold


96' Toyota Celica GT Convertible- sold


02' Acura RSX- current

Been messing around with the photo editing tools in Photobucket lately.... Amusement park that is no more:






I swear every time I see a picture like this, I think the animal in it is just thinking "get that thing away from me".

I'll say if the suspension is legit (with low miles), that's a really good deal. Great balance of performance and looks IMO. Just remember you'll need DC5 top hats if you use it on your EP3.

Sketch......

My Mugen suspension used was 800, been looking at that same intake too, lowest is 400 (and thats a STEAL)

Is there a time for this?

Went on a cruise with a local Toyota club yesterday:

Truth. For the most part around here, if a car's exterior is "modded" in anyway, it usually has some ricey qualities. No matter what make or model. I've seen some pretty ugly (imo) Celicas as well as Civics, but on the flip side I also see the every once in a while clean looking cars and the owners are really cool ( again no matter the make or model).

The majority of modifications any of us do can be considered "riced" depending on different people's perspective.

When I had the Celica- I painted the wheels flat black, some people are really not a fan of that sort of thing, but I liked it.

My RSX now- lowered on 5zigens, again some people would prefer that I didn't mess with the suspension or bought "racing" wheels, but I like them.
To go along with that, the majority or the RSX boards people are all about hella-flush, so I get crap for not being that low. Oh well, its my car.
