Well guys….after a long frustrating year without my car (heres a link) (and short video), it’s time to start getting it together. For those of you that don’t know my story…here’s a post… My accident post

Since then I got a 04 bmw 325i

…and I love the car to death! But I still can’t fight that Toyota urge. There truly is no feeling like a Celica…and I must have that in my life again. I was graced with a gift from a close friend. All he asked in return was the old turbo setup from my last car….which by the way is still intact. The only thing that was damaged from the hit was the intercooler and the charge pipes. Say what you must about these cars, but I can attest to them being battle compliant!

Here’s some pics of the new car.

The car was bought from PA from a group of guys who used it as a show car. They did a pretty good job on the styling outside....the interia needs some work though. I'll be tossing my black leather seats from my last one in there.

the red 5th gen belongs to my friend who gave me the car. It will be turbo charge very soon.


As of now, I’m in my research stage. I just posted a question on 3sgte vs v6 (link to post)…I’m not sure which route I want to go as yet. I already have suspension and brakes ready to be installed along with a lot of other goodies. I’m also looking into the changing the color of the car. Maybe black as a tribute to my last one, but I’m a fan of the comer yellow….so still thinking that over.

I think I’ll kick everything off around this time next year. But I’ll be around a lot more….reading….studying…plotting. It’s good to be back!
