One prob with a GT4 bonnet is that unlike the 5th gen which scoops air into the engine bay, the 6th gen gt-four bonnet vacuumes air out of the engine bay, this would suck all the air out of my intake instead of ram it in

Dam Dam Dam

Evan the GT4 nose is still in front of the Radiator adn I was thinkingh of the G5 GT4 bonnet....

Have a look at the one. Mounted in the dip beam....

LOL

Having a RAM air intake mounted at the front is a very good idea.
What you can do is get a smaller alu radiator.
I thing the owner of the green induction in the head light would need to clean the flys off every day.

The Inlet to my cold air box is in a perfect position to mount a funnel there, this is the plan to be able to easily swap the highbeam for the funnel when at Meremere (drag racing venue.)

I tried taking off my fender to get access to the location of the stock air box but ran into difficulty when i removed every single bolt i could see and it still didnt come loose and wasnt sure whether my wheel or my door needed to come off.

you just need to take the inside mudguard off and theres 3* bolts on the stock airbox and one really hard one, you sort of have to go through the indicators to get at it, then its a bit of twisting it around to get it out.

Anyhow, my cold air box is back to the drawing board and scratched for now as i picked up this badboy from trademe for 45 bux

big ass pipe lol



EDIT: Engine bay returned to tidy state (just for now) damn clean freaks...

gosh missed this update

looks alright, what size all etc. nice sounding??

2" -> 2.5" from the last flange before the rear axel... Just a cheap one, weighs close to nothing held in your palm. It's quiet but noticible...

Good news, Bad news, Possibly good news!!!!!!!!!!

1. I finished piping up my cold air intake this morning.

2. My neighbor seriously rear ended my car in my driveway (don't ask how), my car is possibly a write off.

3. ST205 GT-Four time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh dude! no rolling for us for a while. So gutted for ya.

OMG, that really sucks man. I feel really bad for you. Good luck finding a nice GT4, saw a WRC version on trademe recently up your way!

I think I'd have to move house if my neighbour did that, would find it difficult not to hurt them.

Bugger Mate

What Happend!!!!!!!!!!

Ur car aws looking soooo sweet

DUDE!! I feel so sorry for you, thats the second celic

****KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it's sinking in now, i don't know what to say or what to do. i want to hit something but there's already been enough destruction for one day.

she was there... I had spent so many hours & dollars on her... she was ready for the drag strip for a timeslip, I had milked that 3rd gen 3s-ge for every last drop of power.

I had only just finished it this morning by drilling a 20mm hole next to the cold air box inlet to place the air temperature sensor and rubber grommet, I had to extend the wires on the temperature sensor to reach the front of the engine bay and the finishing touch was buying a 90 degree bend silicone joiner to link the CAB inlet to the pipework i put through the stock location (behind the fusebox) leading to the RAM air scoop i placed just behind the left side fog light.


Anyhow what happened was my car had it's ass hanging out of my garage as i was working on it.. and my neighbor was reversing up the hill and his reverse gear failed and his gearbox went into drive and he literally floored it down the hill wiping off my car's ass and sending it into the garage wall to the right and he went into the side of the next garage and destroyed the front of his car... Oh yeah, as i was standing infront of my car as it happened it sent me flying but I'm not sore or anything


all those days i worked on my sounds, my intake, battery relocation, interior lighting, acis/tvis controller

all that money


I'm still shocked.......

Yeah, 2nd Celica now... I will have a 3rd but I'm scared I could possibly end up with a lower model if insurance screws me over...

i'm not a panelbeater but whats the liklyhood of a repair??
I reckon it could be repaired (this happen at my work, a car was in a parallel park on the road, right at the front [parked with handbrake on, legally parked etc], crane came along and really smacked into the rear right of it and moved it right out of the park [about 4metres forward]... that car is now fixed)


best of luck, and take it easy for now

if it is a right off are you doing anything with the rims i have been looking for another set of these for a while now i know this sounds really bad for asking this just after you have had your car taken from you.

goodluck with your plans ahead

oh and i have a complete rear hatch if you need one with spoiler the same as yours just in red

well it smacked my car sideways from the back.... i think it may end up being a banana chassis

>
Well you're not at fault so it's the other guy's insurance who has to pay...get a quote for repairs and nail it to his forehead

clint(trdgt4) with the no# 8 fence wire to the rescue

you wont have to talk to your insurier will you?? since you have done nothing wrong

Just heard from the panel beaters that it will be repaired and there is no damage to the chassis... Also I'll get some other dings fixed at the same time so my ride will look mint again which would be a bonus

Hay that Sweet you'll come out better Off with your car Gleaming....

How long will it be with the Panel Beaters?

Can I have you Climate control and Guages to set up the new Lights?

>
super lucky. also might be a good time to add the missing body parts like front and rear SS-III Splitters you reckon it'll be finished by 22nd march?

Hey mate,

Would you be able to somehow invoice me a set of 1996 jap spec tail lights, rear bumper & license plate fill in, colour code is 6M1. I want to send something like that to them to make sure they don't give me funny looking 1994 tails. If you could do that, it would be awesome. Cheers

Mike

sorry mate but working for TNZ means i can't actually sell parts to public customers i can only refer them to a dearler otherwise the dearlers get sh*ty trust me i would if i could, talk to your insurance company and tell them to only repair your car with genuine parts they are good like that they should sort it for you. good luck

The dealer price for said headlights are around the $180 mark each, including bulbs, so it shouldn't be a price issue in any case

I've decided this project has come to an end (for me atleast.)

This will go on to the next owner (Hopefully they will be on this site) with...

94,000 Kms Odometer
All dings and fuct panels repaired
Blue clocks & Interior lights
Battery to boot relocation
NGK Iridium plugs BKR6EIX
Freeflow muffler (Not loud but noticeable)
3" intake pipe & pod air filter (Am taking my cold air induction box, front ram scoop & plumbing)
ACIS plumbing & circuitry returned to stock standard (ECU controlled)
Crystal clear side indicators
Racing pedals
Oil catch tank

Will be looking for 5.5k - 6k
