Well, I'm about to have a baby, shes still on the way, 5 1/2 months unborn so with all the money going to her, i've been saving little by little for my mods, finally decided to use what i have and buy some stuff so I bought a Injen C.A.I., Apr Bar and grounding Kit, and i was bored so i debadged the rear and added a vvt-i badge, yeah i know, the badge itself adds about 20hp, (give me a break, it looks better then the toyota and the gt)...Heres the pics, please dont post till i'm done...

well, thats it for now, like i said, once i get more money, i plan on buying more, next up is pullies, headers, and exhaust, then suspension, i want to lower it and get new shocks/struts...
but as of now, the engine feels better, cai makes it louder after 3-4k rpm, sounds nice, i dont know if the groudning kit is adding any hp, but the engine sure is running smoother, idles around 500-700 rather then 1000-1100, and the apr bar makes the handling better...other than that, more to come later...

That looks awesome. Your engine plastics are looking thumbsup! Did you notice any improved handling with the APR Bar. I'm looking into buying that and I just wanted some feedback before I go out and drop my bills on it.

you should paint the plates on the strut bar yellow so it matches and doesnt look like your sponsered by mcdonalds lol j/p

your engine bays pretty much done, all you can really do now is get an oil cap thumbsup

Heh, I like the VVT-i badge. It's better than TRD, because a lot of people like to put that on there. Injen=awesome!


Knowing the path and choosing the path are two different things.

yeah, i plan on buying vinyl stickers and making a rectangular piece that goes over the airbag warning labels and then gluing the gt and toyota emblem to these stickers on the visor, one will have toyota and the other will have gt.

There is a OEM toyota color for your Celica. It's called Solar Yellow and would match your underground engine accents rather nicly. smile

If Yellow is your favorite color? Why diddn't you get your car that color? Just wondering.
