6G Celicas Forums

zonz540: It's lowered on Tien S-techs, It just doesn't look as low cause the rims make the car sit high, but once theres skirts and lip it will look a lot lower. Unfortunatelly, the terrible roads in my city wil not allow me to have it slammed.

Tigawoods: My mind is pretty set on the TRD kit, but moneys an issue with paying for college and stuff. But hopefully it can happen soon!

nice. i miss my red one. imo, best color for the celica.

Alright so I got a small update.

Ever since I got my rims on I've been hearing an awful clicking sound coming from the rear.
Found out that the endlinks were loose and it was movement in the sway bar causing the sound.
So I went to tighten up the endlinks, and they are basically stripped so i didn't want to tighten them anymore so...

I've ordered new Endlinks from twosrus and they are in the mail as we speak..

Installed the st185 rear endlinks.
Definately got rid of the noise from the rear end and Im pretty satisfied.
Camera is not uploading pics right not, so there will be some later on.

he ride is back to normal again, proformance wise there wasn't much of a change but I haven't really pushed it yet, and the links are also at the same length as the stock ones.

IM kinda confused on the length they should be for a car tha has been lowered. I've done some research and still can't figure it out, so if anyone wants to give some input, that'd be great.

i noticed on the grill u made u have what looks like the tie wraps around the black bars, what i did with my mesh grill was take the black bar covers off, tie wraped the mesh to the bar then placed the cover over it, if u do it properly with the tie wrap lock facing the back of the car the covers will go on easy and it will look better, jus my input.

love the rims btw

Ted95:

Really? I didn't even know those came off haha.
I did it a long time ago, they used t be black but they faded a lot and are more visible now.
Do the covers just snap off?

Thanks for the input and I'm glad you like the rims haha.

Finally Got pics uploaded
here are the twosrus st185 rear endlinks:

Also working on repainting my gt four riser blocks.

FINALLY, got the riser blocks re install after painting them once again.
Basically, had to keep redoing them becasue Im a perfectionist and kept finding flaws.
They still aren't perfect, but I redid them so many times that I got sick of it.

Pics:

ya they snao right off, then u can just slide them back on. i kno this because when i painted my car i took them off so thats how i found that out lol

Ha thanks man, I defiantely didn't know that.
Ill have to get that done soon haha.

st185 endlinks fit on our cars? sweet. ill order some.

Yea those or the Miata endlinks from Racing Beat.
Although im not sure if the front endlinks from either fit out car.
I only got the rears

st185 twosrus fronts will work on our cars.. just not the racingbeat ones.

Well bad news.
The Celica needs a new clutch.
Winter's in a few months here, so its really not worth it for me to replace it now whennits just gunna go away for storage.
It'll be money spent on a winter car, and I guess we'll see what happens next year.

Winter driving in the celi is so much fun though.. and its way more comfortable than other cars I've driven. I might be the only 6gc in the city who drives through the winter..

What car are you planning to get for the winter?

Yea, I've done in once.
The reason for not winer driving it isn't because of the weather.
I snowboard, and my interior started to get really beat up the first winter I drove it, and its really inconvenient driving from spot to spot and having to remove my boots cause its 5 speed.
Always driving from rail spots around the city so its sort of a pain.
I also can't fit all the gear i need like lights and shovels and boards and people haha.

I'm not really sure what Im getting for the winter. I'm not to picky.
Looking for an auto four door, and preferably an import, thats not a piece of **** that i can keep for more then one winter.
Okay, maybe I'm picky.. haha
Looking to spend around 2000 ish cause I still got school to pay for and stuff.

Its pretty crazy how much wear winter puts on your cars, even 25 year old cars here don't look like that underneath here in Australia.

Car looks great on the outside though!
