When I get her back with the 3sgte, body kit is next. I am having a very difficult time deciding on what to do. After that, its seats. Next year I will probably upgrade the turbo to a ct20b but I want to see how she feels with the ct-26 first.

Current Project:
TEIN springs KYB struts vented disc brakes stainless steel brake lines All in my garage waiting for me to have a day off ![]() Future (November - April projects) Exterior- Full bodykit (Blitz front/Z glide side/TRD extensions/ GT4 spoiler) Custom hood by me (i'm not telling ![]() Bullet fenders Interior- Custom paint job (was planning to do this project this month, but time is narrow and I'd like it do it when She's outta commission this winter - Two tone. Black on top, silver accents, dark metallica grey for bottom) Autoleathers.com leather seats. Momo crazy with wheel, knob, pedals, and boot Sony Xplod everything (this might get bumped to next month if I have time ... parts are already in the garage) Engine- This is a toughy as I haven't quite desided what to do as of yet. I have about 10-20 grand to blow on a vehicle come November. I'm either gonna get a small truck (Ranger) or another car (MR2 / Solara). I've I get the MR2, I wont do much performace to the Celica as the MR2 will be my performace machine. If I get the Ranger or the Solara, I will build a turbo 5S with 250-300crank HP. Using all kinds of stuff. I'll have to think more on this over the next month. |

Swapping out the GT tranny for an MR2T tranny with LSD and a Clutchmasters Stage 4.
Front Mount Intercooler Setup Water Injection Upgraded Turbo A lew of recent events some of thats being put on hold because my brothers n/a MR2 basically blew up so we're going to take that out, bore it, perhaps stroke it too, and put it back in.

-koni yellows -some acesseries to my nitrous -get the damn nitrous hooked up - side skirts Then I'm done. -------------------- NASA/SCCA RX-7....currently under the knife
92 Civic hatch B16 - Sold 10th anniv RX-7 - RIP The Slow Celica - Sold...and then crushed crushed due to street racing. Quote from Seinfeild: George's Boss reading a magazine: "People magazine's most beautiful people. Oh and a Celica...nothin wrong with that!" |

Im in the process of building my own tail-lights using the body of the OEM tails. Then I am swapping the high beams with the low beams, and putting a turn signel in the high beams (outer lights.)
After that I am putting a cover over the area where the rear licence plate is located, and finaly putting a body kit on. I have alot more planned! J- |
