Long story short I have always been a fan of the GT four. I have owned 8 Celicas and this is my 4th gen 6. Now that I have a daily (Miata) I can do a proper build. This project is going to take a while since I'm doing it on a tight budget but I'm sure it won't disappoint in the end.
Here is the car I'm starting with. its a 94 with a 7afe, 5 speed, and a whole lot of mileage. In the next few months I intend to strip everything down, prime/paint, and give it a nice little tune up. And the wheels will be going in the trash.  Here's a few of my old cars and the daily.

Ok so I got the ball rolling on my wheels today. A friend of mine plastic blasted one of the wheels and since I wasn't too happy with the finish I decided to paint it. I'll be doing the rest throughout the week. Here's a teaser.
