OMG!!.. i tried starting my car.. wouldnt start!!.. got our of my car.. i popped my hood.. i noticed coolant coming from under my car!!.. i realized my car my overheating!!.. called my fren (a mechanic from flagstaff).. i'm like.. what do i do!!.. i've no familiar with phx!!.. no shop or ppl i know to go to!!.. i was stuck!!.. i tried calling a couple of friends asking them if they knew a towing company or they have a family mechanic shop they go to!!.. no one knew!!.. my frens that i was supposed to meet at phx for the game was only half way down from flag!!..

I take it you were typing from a cell phone ^_^ Well anywho, i hope things worked out for ya. So i think i missed something, but what are plans for the car again? Looks, like u have big plans ahead, and it'd be interesting to see it all installed!! Btw, the suggestion to use the shifter buttons on your steering wheel as volume pieces...lol, genius...would set the interior off!! -------------------- (\__/)

well.. there's definitely ALOT of things i wanna do to the car!!.. but due to recent unforeseen circumstances.. my plan has been put on hold.. i might have to sell some of the parts.. but i dont know yet.. coz now there's a new problem!!.. my car's undercooling that why its overheating.. the temperature gauge always fluctuates.. and only recently when i park my car n lift the hood up.. i could see a burst of cooling from the reservoir!!.. a splash.. like a pop!!.. coming out of the reservoir.. even tho its shut!!.. its overheating..
i'm not sure what's wrong.. maybe the CAI.. its dirty!!.. maybe the cracks on the reservoir.. maybe the thermostat!!.. to make matters worst.. there's something wrong with the acceleration of my car.. when i step on the throttle all the way.. it only feels like 50%.. and when i let go of the throttle.. the car's still moving!!.. when i put it in N.. the rpm's like 5k!!.. its scary.. i havent touched my car for a very long time now.. i recently just got hold of a throttle cable!!.. waiting on the mechanic!!.. (side job thingy).. anyhu.. it really threw a monkey wrench into my plans for my celica!!.. i cant quit.. at the same time.. it really wears you down.. i'm worried sick bout my car!!.. but well.. ive gotta stay positive!!.. so.. when it rains.. it pours.. just a couple of weeks ago.. some fool backed into me!!.. OMG!!.. will take picts.. n before that.. i hit a patch of ice.. which caused like peeling of the paint on the front passenger side of the bumper!!.. OMG!!.. NVRMIND.. well.. its over now.. hopefully with some of the new parts.. i'll keep rebuilding her!!.. money's the issue now.. i've got the enough information n knowledge to do whatever i want to the car.. but i dun have the tools.. well.. i'll keep persisting.. hangin on.. i know eventually i'll get it done the way i've always wanted her to be!!.. my P-E-R-F-E-C-T car.. |

It took about year (or maybe even two) to collect what you have collected in one month! That's what I call enthusiasm .

nice quick pickups. I would have gotten everything for my car in one day, if they weren't so hard to find.
