What do you mean rusty? What kind of work?

Always wanted to do a shot like this, as some of you might remember my fail shot 6 months ago with my phone.


Edit: I love these two shots so here they are again!

Like parts of the usa have requirements for exhaust emissions


I was wondering of you guys need a certification for the adjustable suspension? since here some work require a cert over here

ST202 SS-II CELICA threadNew Zealand members check inSticky thread's: How to contribute and troubleshoot.
there was a law here for a while that you had to get it engineered if it were lowered at all but I haven't heard much about it I think they may have stopped it and just stayed with the old law which is 10cm from the ground all around the car.
what kind of paint did you use on your tires?
i remember when you first did it but i cant remember for the life of me what kind of paint you used

looks more sexier and aggressive with the spoiler imo

7gen rims! woo!
Any reason for choosing the 7th gen alloys over the mag wheels?

The mags could be white though....

I'm also thinking that OEM sideskirts would flow nicer with your SS-III splitters too smile.gif

So it seems your exterior is just about ready for show, When does the HP mods come in? biggrin.gif

Or is it something about your P license that you're not allowed to have power? Hehe

Yeh p plates law doesnt allow me to have turbo, this all changes in june.
But that doesnt mean a turbo is getting dropped in anytime soon.

I could say, "Use the search function Tiga!". But a reason why i made a progress thread, so all my mods were in one place. The tyre paint is back on page 4 or so.

Japan arrived at my door.

[b]My Build Thread|Flickr|My Blog
at first I was going to say whiteline swaybar, but then I saw "Japan". I cant think what it is.

Can you give us a glue??

yeah give us a glue tongue.gif

I couldn't figure it out last night, I still can't figure out now what Celica part is that size. Celica Hypersports floor mats maybe?

^ I think he already has those, cant think whats left to change on that car now...

ST202 SS-II CELICA threadNew Zealand members check inSticky thread's: How to contribute and troubleshoot.
Just looking through, I don't see anywhere where he's added the JDM floor mats.

Damn though, He's done every aesthetic + handling mod to his ST204 that I wish I had on my ST205.

Also curious to know how he went from a 3-post spoiler to a 2-post and went about filling and drilling the holes becuase I didn't do such a great job on mine, Just lucky theres nothing visible with the spoiler installed.

Guess I've always figured, when it comes down to it I can always get a '94 hatch when I have the time and money to spare.

Well, I'd really like a glue as to the contents of that box.

Rear Swaybar hopefully?
JDM shipping foam??


suspension bushes, structural brace/s, camber bolts, spacers

ST202 SS-II CELICA threadNew Zealand members check inSticky thread's: How to contribute and troubleshoot.
This cusco 4 point lower arm brace was a mofo to get on. Hardest nuts were the ones for the front two, that connects to the rod and knuckle. I would rate this worse than the coilover job. Nothing noticed yet, well i havnt even driven the car hard so you cant expect much out of it. And wont be entered corners as hard as i was as confident before until i get some rubber, something ALOT stickier down the track... (RE001s or KU36s)

Not much pics of the install but yeh, took me 4 -5hours?

Well this might be the last mod for a while, parents have gone sour and HATE my car... with me spending too much on it.
Right now driving it, enjoying it and most importantly having fun in it. Will possibly be enrolling in some advance and defensive driving courses and learn a few things and have some fun biggrin.gif

Haha I went for the 2pt instead of 4pt for the exact reason of, being a total bitch to install. It makes a tiny little difference, not so much a wow, but just stiffens.

You got a rear swaybar?
Not yet Cal got my eyes set on the whiteline rear one, heard great things about it. But all in due time....

Yeh, its great being adjustable; 3 settings. Plus, a rear swaybar IMO is the best suspension for a FWD, more so than coilovers. ***FLAMESUIT***

That your bike?
Nope, not my bike. Ill **** my pants riding a bike. Its my mates. Oh really you think so highly of the rear sway bar hmmm. But yeh still having lots of fun with the coilovers throwing her around left and right and obeying.

[b]My Build Thread|Flickr|My Blog
Coilovers are great, reduces bodyroll but still UNDERSTEER.

Also drop the line with your parents: "Well atleast I don't waste money on drugs, drinking or partying"
Nice! Looks great! thumbsup.gif
