Whoever at Toyota thought it was a great idea that you should have to remove the front bumper to replace the headlights, is an idiot.
Why I never installed projectors, and instead turned them into attractive paper weights. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

You'd be surprised how many things make for good paperweights. Blew out a piston? Don't throw it away! Save the remains to use as a paperweight that'll be the talk of the office!!!

Driving home and randomly my CEL turns on, so while I'm trying to think of what it could be since I've basically gone over everything in the past year it shuts off.
 Call me crazy, but it doesn't shake as much during the idle up when the a/c is on. So whatever it is, seems more like a + then - right now but we all know how fast that can change.

QUOTE (Special_Edy @ Feb 20, 2013 - 11:24 PM) A celi can't outrun a crown vic on the highway. If you can't hang a right and get out of sight before they close in on you then don't bother. Like I said though if they have to bust a bitch or start from a dead stop I will try to hitthe first exit or turn. I'm already getting a ticket for speeding. But I slow down and pull over immediately if they catch me, otherwise you get a felony evading arrest plus theyre suspicious your stashing dope. On a highway oh no but in the country cop cars arent quite as tough car wise haha. I've gotten an eluding charge, 3 more months on my suspension. It does happen unfortunately, they show up at your house the next morning with cuffs in my experience. My local cop drove a v6 charger weighing in over 4500 pounds with all the equipment on it. They had it tuned for gas mileage, the celica easily accelerated much quicker than that car in my experience. Also crown vics aren't nearly as fast as people think they are or they wouldn't be sold at auction with the same engine under the hood. |

I saw a celica in the movie The Darkest Hour. Its right when they are asking an old lady that is bricking up her windows for directions. It is a facelift and has jdm tails, and a rear window visor, spoilerless, also looks to have jdm projectors on the front.

Today I found the previous owner of my car on here. Now I'm in the process of reading all of its history. I'm glad I bought the car off of him.
