post on the picture game, You win! <@

But my car isn't in the photo ;(

Yesterday I washed the car for the first time in a while, and bought racing gloves.

I cleaned the thread out. Yes, I did delete it all because it isn't Celica related. That's what the off-topic section is for. I went back and deleted my own posts as well. We are all guilty of going a little off topic once in a while, but complete off topic conversations should be kept to a minimum. We really need a section for other cars/projects.

today i watched as the person who purchased my first celica from me sell it for practically nothing. if it wasnt in the NW i would i picked it up from them as it was a perfect candidate for a swap. o well.

edit: north west and north east are apparently different. yall all the same to us texans

The topic should be moved to the off-topic section then. We are a bunch of friend that like to chat about random stuff and since the chat is not working why not in a thread. It gets us together and brings people coming a few times more in the day to read. We are not that big of a forum for stuff to be getting deleted.

I understand that and all, but does it really even matter? This is a general thread in the general section. There's like ten of us that really frequent here, not like a little "off-topic" discussion is going to throw the site into mass pandemonium. Anyhow, I'm starting a thread in the off-topic portion then for non-Celica discussion.

today i finally popped out the dent in the rear quarter on the vert. Now time for a wash and a wax

It wasn't a thread, it was several posts in this thread. I agree that back and forth banter is fun and brings the community together but this thread is not the "talk about anything you want" thread. I have deleted several pages out of this thread, more than once.



This forum is general Celica discussion, not general talk about anything in the world. A little off-topic discussion won't kill the forum, but when at least half of every page is completely off topic, it's time to take it somewhere else. You like your Miata, I like your Miata, and I'd love to see a progress thread in the off topic section.

For newer members who don't remember it, Griffgirl's Celica chat is still active and serves as our chat function when our main chat is down. There used to be an announcement at the top of all the sections, but now there's only an announcement in the Website Discussion forum which is dead so nobody sees it. Here's the link.

Let's try and keep this one Celica specific from now, but you can talk about anything else in the other!

Today I realized that it is impossible to find a vacuum diagram for a JDM Rev2 3sgte engine.
I'm going to end up capping off about half the things on there....

After 2.5 months of waiting finally got my clear turn singles and fender lights

You could probably find a USDM diagram to get the bulk of it figured out, at the very least you'll have the essentials.

Nope, it's actually pretty different. I know where most of the lines go because of the engine being intact.
There's just a few that I'm not sure of...actually it's more like two lol

That's weird... Surely somewhere the information is available though. Hmm, if there's two lines that means you have a 50/50 chance of getting it right.

Today I installed the ECU I bought from YFN16 and it fired right up.
took the old one apart and found capacitor crap in one spot. pics in the thread. http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=93344

now Willie Nelson is stuck in my head

Started looking at Hydrodipping today...
Probably won't be getting it all done at once since prices are pretty expensive, it starts at around $30 for small piece, and can be anywhere up to $200 per piece for wheels.

Today I became the proud owner of a Curren clip. Having it shipped to my house. Will post pics as soon as I get it.
