it's way to light to be iron...

Its cast aluminium alloy.
Used a regular welder that welds aluminium... (TIG)

did it at work, where a collegue helped me. he welds aluminium daily. (work in a electrical power company)

Found and fixed an exhaust leak. Apparently one of the bolts at the cat fell off on the highway. Sounded like a damn rice rocket. Purrs like she should now. Bought a new amp (hfi1500d) to replace my crappy sony xplod amp, went through and re-tuned my whole audio system. Much clearer now. Pics to follow.

Installed my Hot Bits coilovers in my buddies' garage. I started to get a little car sick on the way home cause I have it on the stiffest settings, going to adjust that tomorrow though. There is no way I could ever go back to regular struts now. It feels soooo amazing

my car engine Die. high bet is the head gasket is gone + burn out most of the clutch trying to getting the car in the garage up hill with 1/2 pistons out.

is not a good day, I'll move the car to my friends shop and start fun part.

it will be nice to know if my friend found the 20v in japan to import ASAP.

Bought two new 18 inch tires for a very good price (;

today i read the today i..... thread....

Replaced my radiator cap. After almost 3 months the one that came with the Godspeed radiator was rusted and shot. Stant ftw. Had to do some searching though, as it's not a factory cap this takes. I have a Stant part number now for anyone with this radiator who needs a 13psi (0.9 bar) cap.

Also got a ticket for inspection overdue 5 days ago by a rookie cop. Ironically her last name was Stickler. It was less than a month overdue and I forgot. Explained it to her and she still gave me the ticket. So, got it inspected yesterday and am going to bring the ticket to traffic court and see if they'll drop it. If not, I'm sure the ticket will be like $40 with an $80 surcharge (**** New York state)

well confirmed, the engine is gone.

Today I changed out the rear brakes and rotors, drove it around town and noticed that I had a huge heat ring on my driver side rear rotor. Will need to change out the caliper, and the the bolt broke on the caliper bracket. Not a good start..

washed the Celica and added my 6gc.net stickers



Car is on TRD springs and is lower in the back than the front. Normal?

Mine's on TRD springs as well and it's ever so slightly lower in the back that the front. So my guess is yes.

I hope you crash and destroy your headlights before you get someone else into a wreck and hurt by blinding them. Immature, inconsiderate and dangerous to knowingly drive around with headlights that shine directly into others eyes.

Wow that's alil uncalled for don't you think?
An they are no worse than a lifted truck lights are
Wishing harm apon another member an his car is just rude an makes me ashamed to be on the same forum as you now

agreed that was uncalled for.

In our situation with the majority of our cars being lowered, our lights usually arent seen from behind in a car with normal ride height.

Yeah well I think his comment is rude. To me it just means"hey **** you other motorists, I don't care if I kill someone because I think these lights make my car look cool and I'm too lazy to make it right"

It also against the law and if I'm not mistaken we aren't allowed to talk about breaking the law with our cars on this forum.

Just an absolute disregard for anyone else on his part, and a caviler attitude about it too.

lol the majority of our cars have modifications that are against the law.

BUT

lets just quit this because this isnt going anywhere good, its already been discussed recently in another thread, and it will start to unnecessarily clog up this thread. Im already sick of seeing that same image 3 times on one page.

CLEAN PLEASE
