Get the suby you'll love it Im telling you.

There's a lot I like about the suby
The only real problem I see worth it is its not a Toyota

I'm still kicking around the idea an manning up an just gwting a 7th gen Gts

Good luck on whichever you decide to go with!

Heres a few tiny updates and random pictures, please excuse the nasty ass engine bay i plan to clean it as soon as possible.

Intake (Swiss cheese air box/K&N filter/Stanless steel pipping) Still need to get somemore hose clamps though!



Add'ed the spec's to the cam gear sides of the VC.


Old plugs.


Washed it the other week and poped out the rear quarter dent a bit.

Abit of an update.... Intake, Shell textured black painted block, DNA header.





That's about it as far as the engine performance goes everything done had to be be replaced reguardless so i upgraded abit. The only other thing i can see in it's future that might related is a muffler but it will be more so for looks and sound as most are.

Looking good, making me want to go out and do some small things to my car now.

Appreciated, i still need to clean up the bay but it's looking way better now IMO not to mention it runs ALOT better than it did at first.

I bet, lol. Lookin good Takumi

Thank's bud, also digging the avi!

Some spray might be in this cars future just a tiny pill for some fun, and still need to get my DP cut and welded. I really wish they would make a celica header this fitment **** is for the birds.

On another note Got the CB put together dyno broken in and such. Put all new fluids in it to store for the winter and blew a trans seal shortly afterwards, so it will either sit or sell. Before this happen i had just finished the cb's body work, and got a half gallon of ppg concept custom mix blue (Close to grabber blue) lol the cars cursed!

Finally got the header fabed up, cut the stock down pipe and cut the header to match. Has a leak needs welded, but atleast it doesn't sound like a high reving tractor.

Also goot a short acceleration video (Need to upload first) of how it run's after timing, plugs, header & intake, still slow but ya can't expect 4sec 0-60 out of maybe 95-110whp unless it was stupid light, but it runs good though.

Anyway got the video straightened out.

Through my AEM dryflow on and drilled a hole for the IAT and 3m window welded it in. Hopefully soon i will order a ws2 obx replica muffler and have it and my header welded up, i am hoping for a decent quite tone.

Need to replace the back mount aswell any tips such as loosening weight bearing mounts to make the install easier? If not i'm sure i'll figure it out.

Support the engine, drop the subframe, wiggle the mount loose.

Looking for tires at the moment.... Good dry dirt, soggy dirt/light mud, and snow tire nothing crazy, but something i can play on in all terrains.

I am thinking about the Falken sincera SN-282 and the General AltiMAX RT, 195/70/14 is what im looking to go with though i might be willing to go down to a 65 or 60 for the sidewall's. Any input is welcome....

I have Altimax HPs and they've been great tires throughout the year; snow, rain, and dry. I'd expect the RTs to be just as awesome so that's what I'd recommend.

Went with Firestone winter forces 195/70/14s and ordered a set of rally armor flaps aswell.

Because racecar!




Got my new rubbers on the night after it being hauled and did a nasty burntout on the old tires. New rubbers are Firestone winterforces great in all terrain tire's have mildly aggressive tread, still waiting on my rally mudflaps probably next week sometime.

Going with a mad max theme/off roader, car was wrecked 4times in 2months before i got it from my little brother so...plans.....

Get header dp welded
Some sort of muffler and a turn up tip
Bedliner or undercoat the car
Roof mounted fogs

No power really needed so no plans there as it has all it needs for some fun offroad.
