So, I've neglected my Celica for too long! Anyways, I decided I am going to revive the Celica and start building her again. I am gonna take it down to Dr. Tweak and hopefully he can help me get her running again.
The Story: Sold my first celica (95 STX coupe automatic) to get a 1997 hatchback GT manual so I could do a 3sgte swap on it. Took it to the MR2 Guru, and he messed up the swap really bad and left me with a non-running car. And so, the car got moved around to several places, nobody could finished it, and it ended up sitting around and forgotten. I tried working on it a few times, but didn't get really far. I kind of forgotten it once I got this car: 1992 Lexus SC300 -Full authentic Auto Couture bodykit, w/ 97+ body moldings, fogs, and grill -18" Leon Hardiritt Beils -LS400 brake conversion -1JZ-GTE twin turbo swap -lip spoiler -converted the interior from tan to black -Pioneer AVIC-Z2 gps head unit w/ Metra faceplate -Tein Comfort Sport coilovers w/ EDFC -Electric Fan conversion -Gated shifter conversion -7th gen Celica Steering wheel w/ TRD horn badge -6000K HIDs -LED winker mirrors -JDM window visor and sunroof visor -Puddle Lights, Junction Produce goodies, smoked tail lights I sold the SC300 a little while ago and picked up a 1998 Lexus LS400 because I needed a bigger car since I have a kid now. Been working on it for a little bit, still a work in progress. Exterior: • Hybrid 04-06 LS430 front bumper conversion (LS430 bumper merged with LS400 bumper) • 04-06 LS430 Fog Lights with 3000K HIDs • 6000K HIDs Low Beam • Gold emblems to Chrome emblems conversion • WALD International side skirts • WALD International rear lip • BRAGA red/clear JDM tail lights • Bellezza Winker Mirrors (white LEDs) • Stock dual tone paintjob has been converted to a monotone paintjob • All exterior bulbs replaced with white LED/SMD bulbs Interior: • Junction Produce Kurotsuna • Junction Produce Fusa • Junction Produce Neck Pads • Junction Produce Seat Cushions • Recaro Baby Seat • Carmate vip cupholders • LED Lexus Lighter • LS460 black wood shift knob • All interior bulbs replaced with white LED/SMD bulbs Wheels/Brakes/Suspensions: • D2 Racing Coilovers • Junction Produce Scara 19” staggered wheels w/ stepped lip • Lexus alloy valve caps • Cross Drilled & Slotted R1 Concept Rotors w/ EBR Ceramic Brake Pads • UCA Clearance modification Some shots of the LS400/430 hybrid bumper: This is a shot of my team's logo: Bellezza LED winker mirror covers: Rear rotors and calipers (I painted them gold, I want to chrome them or polish them later though......or just get a real BBK kit). I know I know, they look freaking tiny, but the rims are 19", I swear they are a lot bigger, they just look small for some reason :woot:: Front Brakes (I know, my wheels are hella dirty, it's the rain though :sad:): I love my carmate cup holders, got one on each side since the Recaro baby seat takes up the center cup holders. LS460 black wood shift knob and LED Lexus lighter: BRAGA clear (non-led) tail lights (although all the bulbs are LED though): I had UCA clearance issues, so here's an easy fix to the problem. Anyways, now I got extra cupholders under the hood, haha. -------------------- |
