Tried some new exterior black trim/plastic cleaner, removes the oxidation to bring back a black polished look, works wonders on the window wipers and trim, the black ventilation at the front and around the rear lights.

Do the swap but keep it NA - I've always thought a nice red Beams would look good in your car... biggrin.gif


I'll only go N/A if a 2grfe is involved wink.gif i did some research on this swap already and assuming there are still custom mounts available for it, it's still too costly for my budget and besides.. i'm more of a 'turbo' kind of person.

Speaking from experience; marriage is great, having a kid is even better... but say goodbye to the time you used to spend modifying the car. Hahahaha. biggrin.gif

Don't let my pics deceive you, I'm just getting back into the modding game after a 3 year hiatus. My daughter turns 3 this month, and I got a fat raise at my work, so I can finally afford new stuff!! YAY!


Haha, yea I'm trying to get a new job right now to make some extra cash. Wedding wont be for a while and at the moment we both don't want kids. But shes an expensive girl. Then again what girl isn't. Haha. I'm not worried though. Shed sit there and help me work on my car if I asked her to, shes great. But either way, I intend on keeping this car till the whole shell falls apart in a million pieces, so no worries bout time. smile.gif

To keep this about today. I'm bout to follow my buddy on his R6 on a nice lil road trip in my celica to make sure he doesn't kill himself. Turn the radio up, windows down, and the sun roof back. Haha.

Meh, mine isn't. But she has her own demons in her own way, so it's alright.

gt4st205, that's hella funny. I might use that in my import vs. domestic presentation for speech class.

I honestly can't see how it wouldn't get him an A at the least. His speech would be non-fiction & slightly humorous with a hint of irony.

I haven't even heard it yet, and I give Ferd an A.

PS - thats my "Today I....."

I gave Ferd an A.

It was actually on Sunday, but I put a deposit down on my 6th gen biggrin.gif

Picking it up next week, it's a 98 in red for $1600 and it's almost mint. Will be making a proper introduction thread when I get it

btw, Hi Everyone!

Well I'm at just about 222,100 miles now kindasad.gif
Good thing is though that I will have a manual soon biggrin.gif
Also, I got my axle out today as yesterday I broke a 1/2" drive breaker bar...I took the pussy way and swapped the hubs out. If a 6' breaker bar wouldn't get it off, I doubt an impact gun would either, plus I don't have the time to wait around.

Just hit 104K the other day and finished installing my aftermarket radio deck. Pain in the butt if you have a stock amplifier. Nice thing to do is install my led kit from Spree! can't wait!

KAOS, that was pretty much my exact response T_T

What happened, Ferdi?!

And at the very least, from what the picture tells me, it looks supa doopa easy to fix.

I was parked at a dead stop. Guy reversed into me from the opposite side, said he never saw me or heard my horn.

We did the usual cop report thing, so I have to wait for that to come back and see what happens. I might let his insurance handle it and pay for everything, or I could take a fat check and fix it myself.

Either way, my Celi's crunched. frown.gif But if government finally does its job, then I should have myself a newly painted front end on my hands. Positive thinking.
