Im kinda thinkin i wanna start another project car soon. I wanna have somethin to work on/build over the next 2 years in my spare time to make into my next daily driver. I love the celica, but i think after im done buildin it, im gonna wanna move up to somethin quicker aswell as somethin bigger. I wanna stick with either a Toyota or I might do a BMW toyota hybrid. Im either thinkin of using a MKIII Supra chassis, AE101 4door early 90s corolla chassis, Mid 90s v6 camry coupe chassis, E30 318I 2door BMW or an early 90s 5 series. I have a lead on a good rolling chassis E30 that needs work on the drivetrain, a running AE101, and maybe a MKIII supra. For each of the chassis ive thought of a motor i wanna put in, interior mods, etc.
MKIII Supra: Momo seats, 1JZ swap, LSD *probably 1.5way*, big sleeper, IE no body kit, no fancy paint, no signs of power. AE101: Blacktop 20V 4AGE with a 6spd LSD tranny, STAK gauges, Momo seats, harness bar, lowered, white on gold/bronze rims, shave the emblems, keep it really clean sleeper styled. Mid 90s V6 Camry: Millen Motorsports front end, TRD supercharger, 5spd *if not already* conversion, minor lip kit, scepter tail lights, dark blue paint. E30: 3SGTE w/ W50 Tranny *hense the toyota*, M3 rear flaired fenders, LSD, MOMO seats. Early 90s 5 series: 1JZ, lowered, big wide rims. Thats it. As you can see im thinkin of going with the more sleeperish style, going with cars that arent the quickest, arent nessasrly the best looking, and wouldnt make you look twice. I also want somethin that i can more than me, and a passanger in comfortably. Any ways, what do you guys think? I think im gonna finish up with my celica in August and then im thinkin of startin it then. I was gonna build up my 83 Celica, but i think im just gonna finish up the body work and a few small repairs and thats it. |

QUOTE(brianforster @ May 18, 2007 - 12:17 AM) [snapback]559166[/snapback] sounds like you like momo seats I like them for comfort but i can get them cheap..like $300 or less for single peices QUOTE(Kwanza26 @ May 18, 2007 - 12:31 AM) [snapback]559170[/snapback] How much money you got to spend? And... shouldn't you be worried about getting your celica fixed first? Im thinkin of investing up to $6K on this project, and my cars almost fixed. I got alot of the work that needs to/wanted to be done on it done already. All thats really left is a small amount of motor work, some small exteiror mods and gettin a new sunroof and shes pretty much done. I got about another $1000 or so left on it. |
