hey guys got my new car today. i have been looking around for some time now, i have been wanting to put the celica away just for meets and sunday drives. with 357k on the clock i thought i would be a good idea to give her a rest. so here is what i bought for a new dd and tune up car.

That security indicator is a pretty standard thing on Toyotas. The LED flashes when the car alarm is armed. No idea what the speaker does though.

Are you sure it's a speaker? It might just be random holes.

I don't think that's the factory exhaust manifold.
 Needs a V6 swap. This post has been edited by Bitter: May 9, 2011 - 7:25 PM -------------------- |
