6G Celicas Forums

Tried some new exterior black trim/plastic cleaner, removes the oxidation to bring back a black polished look, works wonders on the window wipers and trim, the black ventilation at the front and around the rear lights.

bought an 03 elantra to get me around when i get my engine/tranny rebuilt in june, engines not blown as a matter of fact its still quite smooth but i dont trust putting a turbo on a 160,000 mile motor so first week of june it will come off the road for the rebuild and turbo installation.

I'll only go N/A if a 2grfe is involved i did some research on this swap already and assuming there are still custom mounts available for it, it's still too costly for my budget and besides.. i'm more of a 'turbo' kind of person.

Haha, yea I'm trying to get a new job right now to make some extra cash. Wedding wont be for a while and at the moment we both don't want kids. But shes an expensive girl. Then again what girl isn't. Haha. I'm not worried though. Shed sit there and help me work on my car if I asked her to, shes great. But either way, I intend on keeping this car till the whole shell falls apart in a million pieces, so no worries bout time.

To keep this about today. I'm bout to follow my buddy on his R6 on a nice lil road trip in my celica to make sure he doesn't kill himself. Turn the radio up, windows down, and the sun roof back. Haha.

Added this meaningless yet funny decal to both my side-mirrors! LOL

o0o swap.. I'd love for it to happen!

Anyway. Installed my projector headlights today, headed to work to wash my car and then proceeded to wax it right after

Meh, mine isn't. But she has her own demons in her own way, so it's alright.

gt4st205, that's hella funny. I might use that in my import vs. domestic presentation for speech class.

Thanks! Hopefully it gets you a good grade then!

I honestly can't see how it wouldn't get him an A at the least. His speech would be non-fiction & slightly humorous with a hint of irony.

I haven't even heard it yet, and I give Ferd an A.

PS - thats my "Today I....."

I gave Ferd an A.

It was actually on Sunday, but I put a deposit down on my 6th gen

Picking it up next week, it's a 98 in red for $1600 and it's almost mint. Will be making a proper introduction thread when I get it

btw, Hi Everyone!

I couldn't help myself.... I bought facelift fog lights!

And here, I thought I was done spending until the summer.... good thing I found them dirt cheap.

.........assisted Hector via very late text message replies

Yesterday, I broke 146,000 miles.

Today, I'll drive my car.

Well I'm at just about 222,100 miles now
Good thing is though that I will have a manual soon
Also, I got my axle out today as yesterday I broke a 1/2" drive breaker bar...I took the pussy way and swapped the hubs out. If a 6' breaker bar wouldn't get it off, I doubt an impact gun would either, plus I don't have the time to wait around.

yesterday i hit 170k..

Just hit 104K the other day and finished installing my aftermarket radio deck. Pain in the butt if you have a stock amplifier. Nice thing to do is install my led kit from Spree! can't wait!

KAOS, that was pretty much my exact response T_T

What happened, Ferdi?!

And at the very least, from what the picture tells me, it looks supa doopa easy to fix.

I was parked at a dead stop. Guy reversed into me from the opposite side, said he never saw me or heard my horn.

We did the usual cop report thing, so I have to wait for that to come back and see what happens. I might let his insurance handle it and pay for everything, or I could take a fat check and fix it myself.

Either way, my Celi's crunched. But if government finally does its job, then I should have myself a newly painted front end on my hands. Positive thinking.
