PHOTO COULD NOT BE FOUND

[Guest_Matthew_*]

it's the same photo as my sig. It's also on my profile with a couple other ones. As for my intercooler, I hit a deer about 2 months ago and it screwed up the bumper and the intercooler, the radiator and the right bright headlight. Since I just bought a 6th gen gt-4 front clip I will possibly use the top mount intercooler on the engine, or the one that I got for a 99 eclipse since they are approximately the same size as our cars.

there are no pictures of any of the stuff i asked for in your profile...and why would you downgrade from the HKS intercooler to a stock top mount and risk heat-sink? and i wanna see the HKS turbo you got on the stock 5s engine..it's quite intriguing.

hey man, i was checking out your profile... i didn't know that TRD made a rear strut brace, or swaybars, or bushings. where did you get that stuff?

also, is that a pic of your trunk in your profile? also, what's the trim and A/R on your turbo?

[x_itchy_b_x]

yeah man hook us up with sum photos of the turbo and body kit and stuff

yea i got the rear brace for a supra and I had it modified to fit my car, about the bushings and sway bars I got them as a closeout item at www.trdracing.com Yea that is a picture of what the box LOOKS like.

as for pics with the body kit and stuff I am looking through all my disks. I don't have a digital camera yet. I used my gf's parents cam. As for pics with the turbo and under the hood and stuff. I am kinda in the same position that neverstop is. My engine is currently out of the car. Cuz I am doing the 3S-GTE swap and AWD conversion. I will post a pic of what it looks like with the body kit as soon as I find the cd.

Yea that is a picture of my trunk, my car used to be silver then somebody keyed all over it and I had the whole thing repainted a different color cuz they're are too many silver cars out there.  And the lights around the subs are the same color as the outside of the car.  They used to be blue but the shop that did that box for me only had blue when I got the box so I used them.

that's not what i meant. i mean the trunk in the pic is not a celica trunk. our tails do not look like that and the shape is not correct, for either the coupe or hatch. period. not your trunk.

also, i have every TRD catalogue that exists from the US, and several from japan, and they have never made sway bars for the 6th gen... I wish they had, but they didn't. and man, the TRD coilovers are like a grand for each ONE! very very pricey, and you can only get them from Japan. Where do you order from when you import your parts? Where did you get your 3S-GTE Clip?

Sorry not meaning to flame or anything, but really, if you haven't done a lot of stuff to your car, it's OK! No one cares. I however, (and others) do care about people BSing, I really just don't see the point.

until you show me pics, I'm sorry, there are just too many inconsistencies with your posts. like for instance, if your car used to be silver, why did you get it repainted a stock toyota color? Did you take your body kit off for the winter, or did you hit a deer with it?

Pics will convince me, that's about it. I really like your car, it's really clean, and even if you haven't modded the hell out of it, it's still a great car. I know, I have one too, and I absolutely love it. Please post some pics and prove me wrong.

when i took the body kit off for winter I hit a deer and it ruined the front bumper and the intercooler, etc. I got the bushings from poweredbytoyota.com and I did get the sway bars themself from poweredbytoyota.com They are suspension techniques.

[x_itchy_b_x]

im not doubting u that u have this stuff. well yeah actually i am, but no biggy if u dont. i just wanna see sum pics man it sounds wicked nice. take a pic of the body kit off the car or something to show us. im not flamin dont worry

[Mynzeyes]

if someone wanted pictures of my car like this, and i actually had it, i'd go out there right now and find a camera, i'd get someone on the phone w/ one, and take the pictures RIGHT NOW. but, however, if i didn't, i'd keep making up excuses and buying myself time. i wouldn't care if the engine is in or out or what, but i'd prove people wrong.

[Mynzeyes]

and as charlie said, that picture in your profile is obviously NOT a celica. i don't buy that your celica was silver before, but if so, that's great. but if this is your celica...explain the picture and what is circled please:

i thought they were TRD?
dude, just tell us you're lying, we won't hold it against you. otherwise, keep your story straight, and produce proof. i personally wonder why someone would do a swap when thye have so much done to an 5s...and, are you gonna sell all that stuff to someone?

[Guest_Matthew_*]

i said that is what the box looks like. Not that that is it. Why do you guys have to doubt everyone? You even doubt neverstop on his AWD conversion. Why can't you just wait until he is done? Does it really matter that much to you what my car looks like? I mean, charlie, I am doubting that you have MR-2 t-tops. Let's see some pics. Right now. It's not that i don't believe you, it's just that there are no pics to back up your story. It's all good though. You guys are entitled to your own opinion. And I would go out and get a digicam but like I said b4. The engine isn't in my car. My job is like 2 blocks away.
