6G Celicas Forums

I finished filming before I had a chance to install my new Megan springs and replacement shocks.

So, in this film, mods were:

I/H/E
TRD Rear Strut Bar
16" DR-9 Drag wheels with VERY worn Kumho Ecsta AST
Hopes and Dreams


Enjoy.

Cool video...did you worry that you might hit your camera for the final shot? Blue Ridge Parkway?

Gotta say two things. One I hate you for having such nice places to tear it up at. Two, nice.....loved that final shot.

I take it the transmission is fixed? I'm looking forward to seeing this thing again at the dragon next year

My car wasn't lowered at the time and the camera is quite small. Yeah, that was the Blue Ridge Parkway and NC 151 near my home.



Haha, thanks!



Yeah, tranny is fixed.... $1000 later... The old one had a leak and ran bone dry. The tranny overheated and the clutch wouldn't come out of place. Half-way home, the clutch exploded and fried the tranny with it.

At least Harry at Phoenix MS hooked me up.

And, yeah, hopefully nothing will explode next year...

wow I second the hatred for the spots you can drive lol but love the last shot, pretty sweet!

Hehe, yeah, I love where I live.

There's about 20 or so awesome and twisty roads within 10-25 minutes of my house (and most of them are several miles long). And the Dragon is only about 40 minutes away... I'm yet to take my Celi on the Dragon...

Sucks to be me, I guess!

I should have some pics of my car, with my new lowering springs on, tomorrow...

Well, here's an update...

I blew my engine last Friday. Threw a rod. I don't have the money to fix it.

So, Harry at Phoenix Motorsports traded me even for a beater MR2 he had. It needs A LOT of work, but at least it runs.

I WILL be getting another 6gc someday... mark my words... but, until then, I'll be MR'in it for a while. Not that I'm complaining!

damn those roads look fun

Just took the '2' down 151 last night.

Man, what a car... once I get some good tires on it I'm sure it'll handle a bit better than the Celi did. Not surprising since this thing has coilovers on it...

DEFINITELY needs some tires, though... the back end is a bit loose for my taste.
