Yes. Hence the reason why I said "in a Celica".

They will fit, if you're creative. I think it was Tech-Nics, maybe, who posted a picture of it a while back. I believe part of the hood was even sticking out of the passenger side window, but he had it in there. It was possibly a decapitation hazard.

. . .

it was a long drive from cherry valley when i picked that up. cant close the passenger window but the hatch did close. the s2k hood we picked up from riverside, hatch wouldnt close so we have to tie the hood.

why didn't you go with suspension technique they make them for both the front and rear. The rear sway bar for suspension technique is 22mm if I'm not mistaken.

what front sway bar will you get??

nice addition btw tongue.gif

Well suspension technique is in america and shipping would be very expensive. Whiteline is in australia and shipping was alot cheaper. Well celicas fwd understeer, so logically you get a rear sway bay to get a netural effect. On medium it would be 20mm and on hard it would be 21mm.

I rekon this would make a massive change waiting for the weekend to get it on. And i might man up and get my tyres in the next couple of days and watch my bank acc. plummet back down again frown.gif

i have one of those, bit of a twat to remove/fit if you can't removed the exhaust rear section, i had to half drop my fuel tank and waggle and spin it till i was blue in the face before i got the old one clear of the car
let me know how this thing handles after the swaybar goes on, your cars set up suspension wise is similar to mine, this may be my next thing

Trying out my stock 15x7 again. Surely they dont look too bad right? They are gutter rashed like no tomorrow so i going to do a DIY and attempt to repair them myself in my spare time. I was thinking... me being a tight cunt repair them myself and start rolling on them again with the semi's i want in 15" sizes so it will be cheaper haha.

Why do you keep changing you wheels bro? I understand why you changed the Rotas out, I remember you having a rubbing problem with them. But the 7gc wheels still looked pretty sharp and they're smaller than those Rotas. Just wondering!

I was bored today and wanted to see how my celica would look with the ride height now with stockies. And the fact that i do plan o repairing them myself and wraped some street semis on them cause 15" street semis will be cheaper than 16" street semis. Im changing over to my 7gen rims now as we speak, just having a break haha.

so after work... I was driving and noticed a crack on my front windscreen. Its cracked on the side running in, and apparently it cant be repaired as its too close to the side. And its only going to crack more the more vibrantions the car gets. The car gets lots of vibratations since i run on ****ing stiff coilovers. So ****ing over this ****, not sure what caused it if it was natural causes (tress etc.) or a jealous fag. But im leaning towards a tree.

So now im looking for a new front windscreen.


I really want a daily now... my bad luck is getting out of control!!!!!!![/
