For no other reason than boredom, i decided to have a look at how my car has changed over the years... and i think i should now make you as bored as i am!
Nothing too dramatic, but i'd like to think i've improved it quite a bit Oldest pics i could find in standard form.. Fitted K&N induction kit First wheel painting, stock rims in Graphite grey: Custom Stainless exhaust fitted Tinted Rear lights red Fitted START button (never, EVER use it! :lol: ) LOWERED!!! JDM Tails and EUROU raiser blocks from ChrisC Wolfies clear front turn signals USDM Gen5 Mirrors: PROJECTORSSS!!! Gen7 Rims - Painted Grey HID kit Painted Rims Graphite grey: LED Dial lights: Black aluminium front grille mesh: Carbon Fibre interior kit: Wheel mods: No pic, but SuperChips ICON race chip fitted De-Cat: Cup holder thing Bronze painted rims... i *think* that's about it. Coming soon: Brand new never fitted uber rare European option Toyota original sideskirts and rear splitters of some kind yet to be established -------------------- |

Hi,
seems to me you are doing all the right things ! Quite a style-ish and delicate improvement, and you've gotta keep them rims in bronze. The colour is nice, too, so classic... so fine ! Enjoy your car, mate. Love it ! |

You and those wheels... cracks me up. Definitely the nicest red Celi IMO. I'm not such a fan of red but yours definitely makes me think twice on that judgement! Very nice indeed.
God I need that cup holder. Daaaaamn. -------------------- |

nice improvements all around no sound upgrades? are you going to do anymore performance upgrades? Yeah, there's loads of things i forgot, as far as sound goes i have new Pioneer Speakers all round. For performance, i think i've done everything that is economical to do now to be honest. With the De-cat, Superchip, induction kit and zorst, i think that's it for me. nice pics luke now i've been meaning to ask but what is this the thing above the stereo. i know it's not there anymore since you have the cupholders but i've always been curious. keep us posted on your updates. Ahh, now that is a super rare TRD super engine afterburner injection system.... Adds about 94BHP ...... Nah, it's just the standard DIN blanking cover, with a TRD sticker on it -------------------- |

I just don't dig on the cupholder idea, why would you want that dangling close to your head unit? |
