My car's done!! - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #43141 20 posts Started by Rayme
So finally my car is done, it's been almost a month or so but I needed time to re-assemble the car and I was very busy with my life blah blah...

So after an adventure that started in march, here's the grande finale!!! smile.gif

So let's start to go back in history...

I was the proud owner of a '90 GT coupe

until march 2006, when I heard of a guy selling a 6th gen a couple hours from my place...so I went and analysed the car...

A fully loaded GT-S, leather, premium sound, sunroof...descent rust...a deal was made!

Later this summer I slowly started moding it..Tein spring and new tires (with the rims the car with).., repairing of spoiler, etc...
IPB Image

Then after a couple mishaps, including all windows down during an entire night of storm, and a stupid "flying hood" accident...everything was starting to get back together..

But the end result is worth alllllllll the time and effort, sweat, pain, swearing and money! The feeling of accomplishment of doing all the work yourself is great..specialy when somebody say to you they like your car.

I placed my orders at toyota world and 1stpartstoyota in june and it came in pretty quickly, except from the hood which took a long while and finally got in in late august.

The car's still not "done", on some picture its missing the rear crest and lettering, and of course the foglights (which I'm doing today).

Awesome! Nice work!

Where did you paint the car? And what paint did you use? It looks great. smile.gif

New Toyota project coming soon...
Thats a heck of a transformation. You can never ever go wrong with GT4 body panels. Is that the factory white or some thing different? I just realized that the GT4 bumper and no sides makes it sit perfectly level. It looks good,

Teh Celica sleeps for Winter '06. Suspension overhaul begins........
It looks awesome. I always love the gt-4 look in white. Good job, sexy looking car!

Making me think of getting an st205 front now. it would look much better with fogs of course. you sure have a lot of side markers.

It really does look awsome. just one question why do you have both the USDM and the JDM side markers?
