Started this thread for all discussions not involving the Celica, or it can involve the Celica I suppose. This way you can talk about ANYTHING that has happened during your day that you'd like to share with everyone. Had a bad day at work, share. Bought an awesome pet rock, share. Found the best new noms ever, share. Did something to your other car, share. Anything that makes me embarrassed, awkward, and makes me turn red in general, keep to yourself.
 Amendment: Anything remotely embarrassing makes me turn red, so... This post has been edited by Box: Jan 22, 2021 - 2:21 PM -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

I feel as if may days may be a bit too "adult" for this website.

So today i was working on the hemi and installed some new goodies, cleaned out the TB, installed a oil catch can, a SLP underdrive pulley and 180 t-stat. Now time to get a new tune for her.

I have been upgrading little by little, when i first got her i swapped out the cam for comps cam stage 2, along with comp cam pushrods. Then installed 6.1 manifold and 6.1 mid pipes. Used 6.1 liftsprings as well Custom tune from Johan from diablosport. Its still a work in progress, hopefully before winter hits i can get correct dyno #'s. I still have a large shopping list of parts i need/want for her, not counting the other 5 cars i have that need some loving too

Today I replace the rear speakers in the civic. They work fine however the internet lied to me and I got the wrong size. The ones I replaced were the same size as the ones that came out which led me to believe that they were aftermarket. Now I'm going to have to drill new mounting holes for them.

My mom has a 3.5 Charger, she wants a Hemi Challenger though. She likes them, a little big and floaty for my tastes in a modern car though.

It would be nice to have a car with adaptive suspension so you could go from soft and floaty for just driving around to stiff and responsive for more spirited driving. Usually floaty cars tend to make me motion sick though.

Obviously the Super Non-Celica Edition 2000 MKVIII, where everything goes provided it's not rude! It's also great for everyone to share things about their non-Celica projects, since individual threads would kind of get lost in space. Or maybe you'd like to share a gyro with me, I like gyros.
