Today I fitted a new cd player and speakers up front, Sony Explod and Rockford Fosgate Punch 3-ways. Lot of value for the money imo, and the Sony suits the interior. :-D

How much were those and how do they sound? I've got an Xplod system too and my rear speakers need replacing. I was thinking something with a deep bass for the rear, since I don't want subs and the Xplod has adjustable sub selection and I can use my rear speakers for subs.

replaced the leaking front crank seal and the busted transmission mount, and did an oil change

They were about 110 usd here in the shop, maybe they are a little cheaper in the US. I listen mostly to rock and I'll descibe the sound as clear and dynamic. I'll probably put a pair of them in the rear as well. They fit the oem speaker bracket if you can live with fastening the speakers with two screws instead of four..(I have a 1997 ST euro)

today i put some led's in my dash



i want something brighter than this

Today I went for an amazing drive at and around the nearby Lake Towada in Japan. No pics, here's some google's on it though



and a Little bit closer on the best of all the roads! This road was maybe 8 feet across at its widest, perfectly paved and ZERO traffic. We didn't see a single car the entire time.

Gonna get more donor car parts today for my complete cruise control install.

Oh nooooooooooes!!!

But seriously tho - nice work on the keywords.

Sad to see you go. Excited to see the supra come to fruition.

If the car doesn't sell for over 2,000 its not going anywhere. The reason I'm even trying to sell it is because i really don't "daily drive" anywhere as i live on campus at school. After college when i do have to daily drive I will def be back in the celica game with some new ideas .

sooo today i pulled my ECU and this is what i found




for those that know u know and thos that dont google it its a quick wikipedia or check the link below

hit 224,000 yesterday, wooo!

Today I got Yokohama S.drives installed on my car after finding out that I needed 2 new tires. My old tires only had about 10,000 miles on them. Wish I woulda got an alignment immediately after putting my coil overs on, instead of waiting 2 months.... live and learn I guess. Also picked up $250 worth of parts from the dealership that needed to be replaced. Its been an expensive week.

Ahh well, at least you went ahead and did what needed to be done. Good on you for looking after your Celi.

As for me, I just took the head unit out (soundstream) of my new GT4 and fitted the IPOD cable (routed it into the glovebox). Oddly, the receipt for the head unit also included purchase of the optional IPOD cable so I have no idea why the previous owner did not fit it in the first place. Anyway, functionality is pretty basic but it works fine and the sound is excellent. Funny thing though, when taking the head unit out, I'll be damned if a Bryan Adams Gold CD wasn't jammed in behind it. Pretty scratched up but hopefully I'll be able to rip it

Also on the receipt was an upgrade to 2 soundstream speakers, which would explain why the audio quality is noticeably better than in my other GT4 which has stock speakers.

check that: It's Ryan Adams, and it ripped fine lol

Tried to finish off removign the lower control arms.
Managed to get the last stubborn bolt out on the passenger side, but couldn't remove the LCA due to lack of assistance.
Still gotta figure out how to remove the damn endlink on the driver side without cutting/ruining it.

and to add on, my exhaust broke off after the cat so now it's loud as hell lol. doesn't sound ricy though, kind of nice, but a little bit louder than I'd like for it to be
