Well, I havent been on in a very long time... And the last post i had said i was going to rebiuld my celica after my stupid accident. But insurance totaled her. I dont want to go through the hassle of buying it back and having a salvaged title. so i bought a newer car. 03 VW GTI 1.8T. Its a nice car. Couple of my buddies own GTI's and they converted me. after driving my best friends 1.8 it was all over. So i went and got my self one.
here's some pics. I'll still float around here cause the celica was my first love. |

Hey great pickup! It would have been twice as good if you would get to keep the celi and the GTI as well!
If you were wondering.. your first mod for power should really be a chip... and don't fret about what chip to get bro... They are like intakes > same ****, different brand. Just go to the place that is closest to you for upgraded software and what not. Good Luck w/ the GTI! -------------------- '99 GT & '06 GTI

yeah that was a pretty sick ride. Im deffinately getting a chip. Probably a revo not sure which one though. with the chip im going to get a 3" dp and then get a custom 3" cat back made. got a ram air intake from a buddy. so things are in motion. one of my friends is selling his GTI but is getting rid of his suspension. he is getting my stock stuff, the coils on his car are going to my roomie and the suspension on my roomies GTI goes to me. so every one gets a deal. im looking at about a 2" drop over all. not too bad. i wish i could keep the celi but i have no where to put it. oh and i might have some stuff to sell. i will have to take a look. im thinking maybe door panels, side skirts. if any one needs something e mail me at Mach6nv@hotmail.com i dont get on here much, but i check my email daily.

yeah service around here is great. the mechanic at the local vee dub sales place is a member of our car club and hooks every one up. he puts a bunch of **** on warranty that really shouldnt be. and he has a seriously quick turn around for any problems that come his way. so its nice to know people in the right places. he is actually selling his R32 bumpers for pretty cheap, same color as my car, thinking about picking them up from him. we'll see.

I don't know if those are the "model" cars you should be posting up, indeed they've got a lot of work done on them. I dunno, maybe its just not my taste. To each, its own right?
Well, heres what I like: -------------------- '99 GT & '06 GTI
