Haha, 86 pics sounds like my kind of fascination- I have a few hundred pics in my photobucket.

It was pretty much like;

*Click* *Reviews picture* "CRAP! BLURRY." *Click* *Reviews picture* "CRAP! BLURRY." *Click* *Reviews picture* "CRAP! BLURRY." 86 times... All alone in the empty road in the middle of the night.

...Yeah. The flash finally made it a bit more clear, and even though it looked like complete garbage, I was psyched that it wasn't blurry. Haha.

I went to some reviews, and apparently I've been doing it all wrong.

I gotta start learning about iso and shutter speed and all that jazz. Because now that mine's adjustable, I don't have an excuse for crappy-looking pictures.

What camera do you have now? I highly recommend you invest in a tripod. Then there won't be blurry photos anymore!

Nikon Coolpix L100.

And I might. :]

First few trys with HDR;

Update 8/23:

-Washed inside and out (lmfao, finally!)
-Removed front Toyota emblem
-Removed front License plate
-Added alarm system
-Ordered JDM tail lights, they will be here friday (keep your fingers crossed)
-A pleasant scratch on the back bumper from some idiot hitting me in the parking lot. Not noticeable at a distance of more than like 2 feet, but it's there. Hit and run. **** Civics.

Interior (Doors are cleaner than they look in this picture lmfao.)




Butt-Shot




Removed the license plate & Toyota emblem!




The holes... Repairing asap. School is limiting my time.








Thanks for looking.

very nice Celica BTW.

hey Random Stranger dont you think he's a little to far for our meet

Got the spraypaint

Decided not to spraypaint the stockies, and instead save up for some new rims.




It's starting to feel a lot like Christmas...


Hmm. Eggs.


WAIT A SECOND! THESE AREN'T EGGS!


I WANT A REFUND!








More pics later tonight when I go on a photoshoot with my home dawgs.

Looking clean. Why you decide not to paint stockies? I thought it would have looked great.

I'm getting a good deal from a buddy of mine that works at Les Shwab.

I'll get the exact wheel names and pictures and stuff and put it on here in a bit.

They're 17" with black on the wheel and a chrome trim around the outside.

I get that and new tires for $700 installed. Which is definitely not bad.

And I plan to sell the stockies. They're in great condition for a car so old, and spraypainting them ruins the value.

welcome to the family.the people here have said pretty much everything you could do to your car.hhmmmm...u could get and aftermarket intake..lol.good luck with ur car and keep her safe..

Congrats! JDM tails are probably, in my opinion, the best exterior mod you can do to the car for the money. The car itself looks great, but those tails are very obvious early 90's, and the JDM tails bring the car into this century. Plus, they are a whole lot cheaper than splitters of JDM headlights or anything else, so in my opinion, the best mod for the money. I'm glad you decided to not paint your stockers- it's always easy to tell when somebody took factory wheels and painted them to try to pass them off as something else. I like the stock wheels just fine on our cars, just so long as they aren't painted. But your car is very clean, and you seem to have a good head on your shoulders, so keep up the good work!

Lookin' clean!

Can't wait for the next set of pics.

Thanks for the feedback, guys :]

The pictures didn't exactly turn out as I had planned (They're horrid, actually) but in any case, here they are;









I like the look of my JDM tails, though!

Monday I'm getting a new radiator and setting up an appointment for a new clutch.

And also, I'm going to buy those rims that are on the Red Golf GTI. He is going to sell the wheels and tires to me for $600.

You might notice some of the pictures have a sticker that says "Just 4 Fun, Nothing Personal." That's a car group/club that I've been hanging out with recently. It's not a club where you pay to be a member each month or something, but it's more like a family of a few people that spend more money and time on their cars than they do their relationships. I've been hanging around with them the last few weeks, and yesterday they invited me in and I got my stickers :]. I know that doesn't seem like much (a sticker) but it's a big accomplishment to me.

Thanks for the feedback again guys. Thank you :]

Upcoming list of things to buy:
Those wheels (18")
Headers
Exhaust
Strut bars front and rear
Lower an inch
Cold air intake



As always, suggestions are always welcome and appreciated.


EDIT:
Here's a link to the photos I currently have of the night if anyone is interested.

I had $15 lying around, so I bought some heat primer & paint...



That pic was a cell phone pic taken when it was half way done. The battery holder and a few other things are painted red, too.

I'm going to paint the engine black soon :]

Keep it up, i like what im seeing.

Loving the celica man.

well done.

I ordered a cold air intake!

:]

And I'm also replacing my throttle cable today. It's very loose and I have some lag when I'm stepping on it.

More eggs today.
