6G Celicas Forums

So today i got done with my exams and did indeed get the cannon put on, and i have to say that i love it

Considered selling my 6gc...but i dont think im going to now...

Gave her a long overdue wash and a small set of goodies.

picked up the car from the bodyshop.....

@Swiss and Tom88:

Very nice guys!

Thanks Keiri

@SwissFerdi

Whats that black strip on the front wing?

Either a secret prototype spoiler that you guys don't know about, or it's a license plate holder. You pick.

Doesnt look like either to me....never seen anything like that before thats all. Looks like a bump strip kinda?

TOM! Looks awesome!!!!!!!

Love the back bumper too, good choice

That black thing is a blacked out sidemarker, like an extra indicator.... they have to have them over there..... Look rubbish don't they

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Yeah, I thought you meant the plate holder. That's a blacked-out USDM side marker, since I didn't really think clear ones would fit. Your indicators are placed further back on the wing, behind the wheel, and they're smaller and more rounded.

Like Luke said, it looks turrible.

Ahh ok fair enough. Seems abit odd to have the side repeater so close to the fronts.

Welcome to the silly USDM fender. It's still fail.

Today I lowered my sisters celica

Scouted places for a nice photoshoot for CotM (May/June)...have a looks see (sorry bad cell phone pic)

Test drove this:



It surprised me. Had a very good ride, even on 22's, but it felt lighter than it really is. 425 horses obviously didn't hurt, and it felt plenty powerful, but for some reason not like 425; not sure why, it's probably due to the weight of the thing and also due to my inexperience with horsepower level. It did have a K&N SRI and Borla exhaust, so it sounded excellent. All in all, it really surprised me as a car. But, it also put the Celica into perspective. I thought I'd hate my car, but the only thing I missed is power. The Celica still feels much more nimble and strangely, just as refined. I also realize now that the sightlines are awesome on our cars, probably due to the seating position.

Also saw this:



'96 TT auto, bone stock. Seriously, no mods. Only 56,xxx miles, the dealership was asking 35k for it. I asked for a test drive, didn't work.

Will second that, good ride, but strangely lacking that "feel". Love the rating out of factory (friend has Daytona version), great car, but seems to be missing everything on twists. Great in a line though (still wont beat a T/A stock vs Stock)...from what I've seen personally.

today i took out the bumper, replaced the passenger side low beam, took out the broken passenger side high beam and replace the driver side fender.

Today I got a picture message from one SwissFerdi of a red Toyota Supra and I was jealous.

Then I detailed the IS and took it for a drive through the country to try to get some good pictures.
