ok, since ive been surfing this Forum ive been looking at everyones pictures and mods theyve done the their Celi. and i have to know how you guys do it. im not talking about how machanically,i mean funding and time. I mean i have somethings that keep me from being about to spend a lot of money to mod my car, my daughter and my wife eat my money up pretty well, bills and what have you but i know im not the only one here that has responsibilities like these. If you saw my Celi you would cry, im just now able to afford a EGR valve and a new Brights head light assembly that im hopping will allow it to pass inspection. and dont get me wrong, i love my car and would work on it ........most of the day if i could, but some of the things you guys have done are crazy.

im not looking for advice, and im not bashing you all either, hell more power to yah

Im just wondering how you all did it, and how much time it took for you to get to where your at now.

Easy answer. Not many of us have what you have; meaning a wife and daughter. The fact that you have a daughter is enough to drain the money out of your pockets but thats still cool that u got all that. Im not saying thats a bad thing cuz I'd be more worried if you had a daughter and was spending all the money on the Celica to tell you the truth. Most people here are still in school and live at home and dont have too many expenses.

true, for example, i dont have the required expenses that you have. my money goes to girls, alcohol, college, and my car, and the little i left over i save tongue.gif also keep in mind some of us have had our cars awhile. a small bit here and there adds up over time.

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.

I have to agree. A lot of the people on here have had their Celicas for YEARS! I've only had mine for a few months, and I thought when i first bought it that I was going to put mod after mod after mod into it. but after the first few mods, I began to truly realize how expensive it is, and how much time it requires. So now i'm just putting little by little into it. It'll take a few years to get it where I want it, but once i get it there it'll make it all worth it!
