I've always liked the later front with the earlier spoiler. Just mix and match everything. tongue.gif

It looks weird on the pre.

+1 but I think it looks a hell of a lot better than a lot of the stuff out there. e.g the trd front spats (prefer the ss3 splitters)

What do u mean earlier spoiler?

I think ss3 or toms front. trd or Vader sideskirts and trd rear spats suit the car as a combo. with a z style rear wing and a gt4 bonnet to top it all off.

today I drove my ex woman's Celica st. realised the st isnt THAT slow lol her clutch n gearbox workin fine so Thats probably it. motivation to fix mine up. iv for about £500 worth of stuff jus sitting in my living room and something needs to be done soon.

I think the ST can pull the GT until 3rd gear due to the weight difference.

The earlier spoilers are two post, later ones are three post.

Ehh, the GT is about 1-1.5s quicker to 60 from what I've found. Which if that's your main concern you bought the wrong car to begin with unless you're swapping.

I agree. my gt used to come to life I'm the higher revs of second gear and move in 3rd.

Na I got a st on purpose because it was a lot slower than the gt and gt4 lol I'm a wreckless driver and have a slight addiction to speed. the slower the car the less chance of me trying to take on the world with it lol although turbo charging is probably the direction I'm heading when I have enough money for the parts. I want a 7gc first though.

iv never actually seen a 3 post spoiler before to be honest. think I prefer the 2 post anyway

Today I started on making a small paint and fiberglass "booth". My LED lighting for it should arrive in a few days. I'll post pics when I can, if anyone is interested.

That's a GT with the emblems in the wrong place. Repaint probably.

What are the two things on the top of the hatch ?

I noticed the emblems were off, and no idea with what's on the top of it. I asked for them to e-mail more pics and info as the listing was pretty sparse, so I guess we'll see. I don't mind a respray as long as it's OEM black. Watch, it'll be red in the engine bay and that'll just ruin it. I also found a '96 Integra LS that's on AutoTrader and KBB, and haven't heard from them yet so who knows. At this point I've decided it's just a matter of whatever pops up first that didn't hit every item in AutoZone as it was doing a flyby.

If they ever message back. It's been my experience that usually those that only go through e-mail have a bad habit of never responding. I found a stock Integra, but they want $4K for it with 180K miles and it's not even the GS-R or exactly mint either... rolleyes.gif Maybe can find a NX2000, they're so out there the ricer tax shouldn't be an issue. Oddly enough the Celica is that way I've noticed.

Once the V6 is in it I can't promise I won't try to steal it. tongue.gif See, one in black or a nice blue would be great. Funny how big a difference colour makes.

Side observation, the 200SX SE-R is really cheap and is ricer free. I wonder what it is about certain cars they go for and others they don't. It has the SR20DE, so it's not like it's an unpopular engine. Also the MX-3 with the tiny 1.8L V6, almost as rare as the NX2000.

I found this on your craigslist. It's a sedan but it looks pretty nice.

OT: Not today but Friday I'm going to the junkyard and seeing if I can find an engine for my celica. However now that I have another car I've been thinking about a beams...

There's a early 90's 626 for $2,000 and it only has 47,800 miles on it. tongue.gif If I didn't hate sedans as much if not more than I do automatics I'd just get a 6-speed Maxima or Altima.

To think you could've had a blue car instead of red one, the shame. I'd be up for a '92 or '93 Celica I suppose, though I'd wear the headlight motors out because I'd flip them up and down and giggle uncontrollably. I'd go for a 7GC if it weren't for the offensively cheap interior, like I just don't even know how you go from the 6GC to that.
