So apparently i need to beat the fenders in some more, driving to campus this morning all i heard was rubbing everytime i hit a bump or took a turn, so the hammer will be coming back out.... and some touch up paint lol... some more pics, i was going to wash her but its retarded cold again

Just stiffen her silly, thats what I did on the old tein SS, the ride hurt my kidneys but no tire rub on HUGE spacers..
i did stiffen the rear lol, still has enough bounce to rub

Now imagine a spring/strut combo, 17's, and 25mm spacers if you think that rubbings bad, haha.

You need a fender roller, but it looks good!
yeah a fender roller would be nice,
but anyways, before i left for vacation i started refinishing my wheels, now they are primed but im stuck on what color to paint them.... im sort of tied between going with white wheels, or staying with the darker gun metal look... thoughts?

Lol, I told you I thought white would look sick way back before you painted them the first time and you didn't like it. I think it looks good as I see a lot of pastel or close colored cars with white wheels that I think look awesome. Maybe at least try it out, because they will get super dirty. But the color you had them looks great too.

Stick with the dark gunmetal.
I say the gunmetal. White looks good, but on darker cars.

Ha ha yeah most of that is gone now i hope or the hammer is coming back out
and i really want to try white, but its just such a hard color to keep looking good which is why i didnt do it the first time, still not sure though..

So tired of rubbing, every time i hit a bump i rub, think the car will be coming back up, not much. but just enough so i can retain functionality of it, hate to do it but also hate rubbing everywhere i go

If i put more than 1 person in my dub, its nonstop rubbing. and so much for aggressive turning laugh.gif

Haven't really updated in awhile, been doing alot of work and alot of research.
-first off, some a$$hat hit my rear fender and took off about a week ago, so trying to fix that, and they keep giving me the wrong shade of paint.
-Fenders are now rolled in rear no more rubbing
-Spending has begun for the 3S swap, pod, Afm wideband, oil press, and boost gauges have all been ordered
-looking for gaskets and such now, and also need to get in touch with _Jim_ about a motor
-Plan is to have the 3s by end of the summer, but so far the list is looking pricey, good stuff to come here shortly stay tuned!

1996 Toyota Celica Project Mean Green3RD Gen 3SGTE WRC Edition W/LSD E153 - Love BOOST <32001 Solar yellow Lexus IS3002001 Dodge ram 1500 Off-road edition
Allright Folks, lots of parts coming in this week
-Apexi intake filter
-Oil pressure, Boost, and data logging wide band came in yesterday
-Kirk Motor mounts are in
-Rear 1/4 panel is painted (again)..... and still not matching FML

car looks good bro, the spacers and the rear splits look nasty!

and congrats on starting to get stuff for the 3s swap. but listen lol take it from me, its a veryyy pricey project for a kid who is workin at a grocery store like myself lol. take your time and dont skimp out on anything. my 3s swap has already reached a year and i havent even put it in yet lol. (its going in the beginning of May biggrin.gif ) but seriosuly, take your time and dont rush it, bc its going to get costly fast. good luck kyle!

ya i can honestly say so far with the motor as well, im up close to 6k on this swap, and its not even done haha, still gotta pay for my IC piping and b-pipe to be done once the motor is in. thats going pay check to pay check lol. last month i was havin second thoughts on the whole thing but i kno once shes in, it will be well worth it lol. just gotta be patient.

Still looking for a 3rd gen 3sgte though, trying to find a reputable place to buy one from, messaged _Jim_ a couple times but no responce so still on the hunt, coming into a little bit of money here soon so some more buying will start soon! keep posted for updates
