Tigawoods' 1995 Celica, Racing n Stuff Options

[Tigawoods]

after a long (in my eyes) hiatus from June 2012, finally back on the road





So here is the story of my celica.




so i dont get to ramble on too much, lets start out with the first picture i took of my car back in 2006 when I got her.


the first mod that i did was my JL speakers all around. nothing special. i wasnt too much into the whole 6gc scene until a little bit after.

i then stripped the hub caps and started putting every sticker i found on that car!







then i had finally gotten into the 6gc scene and started to mod her. first things first, a $70 weapon r intake from a fellow member. needless to say i felt badass installing it seeing as how it was my first mod.

after that came exhaust, a nice n\' rare SP1




THEN TRAGEDY STRUCK!
i had thrown a rod and my car was up for about 3months, saddest moment ever!


after all was said and done, i got a new rebuilt block.

the day it was back on the road


this is the first pic i took with my new camera



Then after not having it for a while i wanted to get her gifts, thus leading us into the...
BAD IDEA PHASE







end phase


then i put on my XS auto headers the NIGHT before i was leaving for my freshman year of college. ended up rushing and cutting to hastily and had a bad exhaust leak. and a lil bit after put heat wrap on the rad tubes
also i got one of the limited DCR 3points




then after a month or so, my engine quit on me while cruising around pittsburgh. had to tow it back home to the shop the block was built at in philly. ended up being a bad head gasket.



then i just started buying stuff while at school and putting it in

SPENDING PHASE

its hard to combine the two photo's into one since my photography skills back then contrast from how they are now

its nice to look back every now n then and see how much has changed

[rentaspace]

with those twin pipes in the centre, a nice diffuser would look good

Car looks great though.

Everyone seems to be buying Box

[Box]

He has a diffuser of sorts already.

Meh, I'm used to being bought by now.

[rentaspace]

Moar bigger and Moar low

[Tigawoods]

cant go lower. exhaust will scrape
lol and my coilovers wont allow it anyhow


i think rt-performance has a wider diffuser too!

for a little while I almost got these, but figured it would make the rear end too busy while the front is all stockish

If you get another diffuser sell me yours! I'll pick it up and everything. Cause I don't think they make carbon fiber ones anymore

[Tigawoods]

I think I may keep it because of that! thats my main reason other than its length

[Julian_Navia]

Darn. It was worth a shot lol.

i know the feeling, and i barely havent done half of what i wanna do,..!

[Tigawoods]

got the last item I wanted to get in before the meet!
(besides the new prosport oil pressure gauge thats on its way to replace my broken one)

[Julian_Navia]

*gasp* does this mean CnC too?

Very nice. I wish NC had SCCA plates available...

[Tigawoods]

October and November! (maybe not so much in october. i got me some races then)

Very nice. I wish NC had SCCA plates available...

PA is the only state! I was quite adamant at keeping PA license because of this plate and no front plate!

[bnr32celica]

I need that plate. CT has crappy choices for vanity plates, and everything I tried to request got shut down.

[RabidTRD]

I wish NY had those plates. I'm tempted to drive down with my Sapporo Japan plates on. "Wut osifer?! It's ern emport!!"

[kurt95gt]

Gotta say this cars looks better in person than in the pics
Witch is crazy since your pics are always topnotch
You truly do have an amazing celica

[Box]

I have to say his is probably my favourite non-swapped car.

[Tigawoods]

I appreciate that guys.


you make me feel..




make me feel...
