Ok....sooo....I know it's a bit late for me to start it but might as well do it now. Lol. I bought my 1997 Toyota Celica GT for $4,500 on February 27, 2012. It had 175,000 miles on the cluster. It was in very good condition. The only problem I had on it was it had a CEL light on. Which was just the speed sensor in the cluster not working. Replaced that and the CEL was cleared. Also my car didn't pass emissions test but I eventually had that fixed after running on premium and Lucas Cleaner. Overall I was more than happy to pay the overpriced $4500. smile.gif

Very ricey and not my flavor.

Here's a link to my FB album of my car. It has all of my pics of my silly97.
https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.2...0238&type=3

Here some things my car had on when I first bought it:

Bone stock performance
7GC GTS Rims
AG Lowering Springs
JDM Tail lights
Stock side skirts
2post spoiler
Rear tinted windows
Window stickers




Here's what I've done to it so far:

Performance
Injen Short Ram Intake


Suspension
Megan Coilovers


Ichiba Spacers 15mm and extended lug studs all around


Eibach Camber Bolt


Fender Rolled All Around



Exterior
3k Hi halogen bulb


8k Lo HiD conversion
3k halogen fog light bulb
Amber turn signal bulb


Clear side lights


TRD Roof Spoiler REPLICA(Hi-C)


OEM SSIII front grill
Tom's Front Lip REPLICA(Zonz540)


Enkei RPF1 17x8 +45Front +35Rear
Nankang NS1 205/40/17



Interior
TRD Shift Boot


SpreeLED White Gauge Lights


GT4 Rear Strut Bar




I do have a set of GT4 splitters that are waiting to be painted.



The rest of my plans for my car is to get it repainted and installed with the gt4 splitters. I want to go wit the Supra Limited Edition Silver code 1B9. I also want to get a custom exhaust. I really want the JDM projectors also. We will see what else will be added onto my list as days goes by. Lol. Also I'm planning to keep my silly FOREVER!!! XD

How it looks before:



How it looks now:

They're here! XD



Got my H1 Hid bulb inserted in the housing. I used LewFX method to get my HiD's installed.

I used UTSlickVic's method to connect the accent socket. Just need to splice the other end into my parking/turn lights.
http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...7&hl=accent


All that's left is to take off my bumper and actually get them installed. Only thing I really need to do is find a way to wire my accent lights into my parking or turn light wires.

I am so jealous right now (I ordered mine over a month ago now!). They look really good! biggrin.gif You are obviously very keen to get them on there, because you have certainly been doing all your research to have everything ready to go! tongue.gif

We will be waiting anxiously for pics smile.gif

I was lucky. It was only around 250 miles away. Lol. Yea I did a lot of researching before committing to buy a set. If you need any help installing or wiring you can PM me.

Is that Winnie the Pooh taking a nap in your bed? laugh.gif

Congrats on the projectors. You going to do the cutoff mod? It's really nowhere near as difficult as it sounds.

That and blinding people is never nice. With the proper cutoff you should be able to run HID's in the low beams also.

I did it simply because the hot spot of light is right where the cutoff flicks up, right into oncoming traffic. The mod is a lot easier than I thought it would be. The lights are very easy to disassemble.

Yea I tested them with my hids on and it seems like both lights need to be cut off if I'm correct. Since both are angled up to incoming traffic.

Yea I would too. Our cars are so alike. Haha.

Sorry to keep you guys waiting but never had a right time to take a pic of my car. So I finally took some after work. Will take better pics whenever I get some time to clean and take it out for a photoshoot.

Went from 8k lo to 5k lo. I couldn't stand driving around with 8k. So hard to see. Lol.
