![]() You’ll have to ask Chris at the Midwest Meet about how he found out 96+ seatbelts won’t click into 94-95 latches. ![]() For your wheels, you’ll probably want spacers. 17x7 +40 will fit but will be near stock fitment. My Caldina wheels are 17x7 +45 (so 5mm more sunk in than your Konigs) and while they fit, they don’t look good at that offset. I’m running 15mm spacers to make the wheels effectively +30 and front fitment is okay, but rear should really have a 20-25 mm spacer for better fitment. I’m not after stance or flush fitment so I’ve left it, but you’ll see what I mean when you get the wheels mounted. Just a little bit more flush will make the car look a lot more aggressive. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

John has taught me so much! The guy really knows his stuff. ![]() What kind of spacers do you recommend? From my research, it seems like I should go with hub centric bolt on spacers. I have not yet looked into brand and quality yet. She'll need spacers for that hella flush fitment. 10mm front and 15mm rear. Annette, where'd you get the camber bolts from? I'm confused. Shouldn't the front and back spacers be the same?! To get the factory flush fitment? My fenders are not rolled or anything. I got Moog camber bolts from Rock Auto - the website said they were "performance" parts. And I know, I know, Ted said it was a waste of money, but I wanted to get real camber bolts so that I can hopefully understand how they work, by having the actual part, and putting it on myself. That's how you learn right?! CAMBER BOLTS ![]() You got the brakes, you got the coilovers, now you got the wheels. next logical step is an engine swap! ![]() Uh huh. Baby steps. Baby steps. And somehow you've convinced me that this may eventually be a good idea. Repetition and persistence work! Who knew!? Man, I miss my car.... Stalking project threads doesn't help either. I'm sad I never got to see your Celica. Is there a build thread for it? At least you can live vicariously through all of us! ![]() -------------------- ![]() 1999 - Toyota Celica GT Vert Black 1999 - Toyota Celica GT Vert Super White |
