wow...that's expensive...here at the dealership..it cost 12 bucks...but downside is they have to order it from the warehouse.
I plan to put one on the rear as a replacement but i don't know how high it will shoot if it'll be right on the windshield...do you think that nozzle will shoot off too low or too high for the rear (if you go a hatchback or lift-back)....can you test the volvo nozzle for the rear?

Yeah, it was a lot because I couldn't originally find the part # because I don;t know the technical term and I was getting frustrated so I just typed in something like "volvo wind shield jet" and these came up, the only pair of OEM ones with no neon or anything. Basically it was a third party seller of the OEM part and it was in Europe so originally I saw the price and thought it was US then when I realized it was pounds I just wanted them so bad I got them anyways, haha.
Yeah I will definitely try it on the rear as I want a new rear one too. It should work, the front ones aim pretty low but wide and cover the width of the wind shield which is really nice, if it works good maybe we can go halves on a rear one from a Volvo dealer now that I got the part #?

im fine with that...i just called them up...i figure since you got them for the fronts...it should be easy for you to just test fit them to see how they play out on the rear...my just drizzle water down, it doesn't even spray anymore; what's worst is, it stopped working, probably clogged up, but i figure the hole is the same as the front for the hood and from the looks of the nozzle...they all seem to be the same (might as well replace the worn rear nozzle too). I was just worried about the height the nozzle would spray for the volvo nozzle. let me know

Sorry Chacha, still haven't gotten around to fitting the washer jet to my rear washer yet.
I received my TRD rain deflector for GT4 hood a few days ago. I went with black anodized and today added my own personal touch. Also did some work on my motor and took a lot of parts for cleaning etc. Was a pretty good day.
Here's a pic of what I did to my rain deflector, didn't get pics of it installed but will tomorrow. I think it looks awesome on the car.

rain deflector looks great,
i like the gauge cluster conversion, nice touch in a US Celica I could imagine,
hey what did you do with the spoiler? it looks like you shaved off gt-four is that what you did? or is it just too hard to see in pics?

No big updates on the car really, but I have been doing things to prepare my motor. The intercooler is off and I peeled the "Toyota 2000 Twin Entry Turbo" sticker off and sanded that bad boy down as I am going to have it airbrushed by my girlfriend's mom's boyfriend. My valve cover and intake manifold have also been taken off and cleaned up for painting as well as all of the covers around the turbo manifold and downpipe. The stock downpipe has also been taken off as I am putting on my Berk DP. Yesterday, I also ordered some tune up parts which should hopefully be coming sometime within the next week. I guess once I have more stuff together and more pics, I will probably make a forced induction build thread...

Looks awesome, great progress.
JDM guy made me do it.
^^ Thank you.
Haven't really posted here in a bit because every update lately has been focused on my 3s swap. But I finally got around to installing my GT4 fogs.
Also purchased some 404 sides which I will be putting on with my splitters pretty soon here. Plan is coilovers after the swap, so hopefully before summer.
Got an s2000 antenna as well, but don't have any pics yet, I will have to do that this weekend sometime.

Make sure those 404 sides line up right before you paint or your going to be pissed when you have to custom fit them

Haven't posted here for awhile because I've been busy with everything in the world besides my Celica. The longer it take for my swap to get here, the less I feel motivated to continue working on the Celica..However, that being said, I did recently pick up a set of coilovers that will be installed sometime before summer. I love my Celica so much and can see it's potential but can't thoroughly enjoy it with no 3s..
My goals for this summer were to get coilovers, get my motor in, get every smidgen of body damage fixed, and hopefully some paint. That in coordination with selling my Alltrac and finding an s13 coupe to purchase and daily while my Celica gets its makeover. S13 will hopefully be a 1jz drift car next summer but that's another story for another time.
Everything seems on track right now so long as Jim can get me the remainder of the parts I ordered from him soon.

Good man, I hate seeing GT4 on FWD Celicas.
Btw don't expect that boost gauge to tell you anything, except that manifold pressure changed 2 seconds ago. Lol

Hey mN dont beat yourself uo over it and make sure u take your time with thr mods u put on. I bought my celica and it took me 3 months to get my celica running onto to the road after suspension set ups wheels engine maintrnance and it just felt like the never ending story. I know ur situation must be harder since ur doing a swap. If u rush things while your frustrated you could make mistakes and it will cost u more money in the long run. Ive been there done that and put more money into the celica than i should of.

Edit: Totally posted previous post in the wrong thread.
Tried putting my coilovers on with no air tools the other day and got one of the fronts in, but the passenger side lower strut bolts are literally like welded in...so I need air tools. But hopefully soon my car will be slammed. Also plan on getting some wider spacers in the rear, as lame as that is. Rediculous offset FWD wheels suck! But it will look sick!

Did you try a 3 foot break bar? That's what I used on my insanely stuck strut bolts and they came off like butter.

Not 3 foot, but I pb blasted, torched, and literally broke a 2 foot breaker bar trying it, and this was after I had to literally jump on the breaker bar for the other side, haha. I've done suspension on a few cars and this was def the most stuck I've seen. I just gotta go buy an intense impact wrench I guess.
Really sucks, I want my stance now! Haha.

How's the car coming along? Did you have a chance to fit the 404's on there? Mine fit like crap, looks like i will have to do a lot more fiddling to get mine to work well.
Looking forward to seeing some pics soon

It's been going pretty good, just trying to clean up a lot of the stuff I have at the moment. Still haven't fitted my 404's or painted my splitters, they aren't too high on the priority list currently, kind of waiting till the car has more down time, probably during my swap or something.
Been doing lots of work on the Audi and getting my Alltrac ready to sell, my 6gc just sits there and soaks up money like a sponge.. I'm trying to get it all ready for the big Toyota meet next month. Kind of sad my motor won't be in for it, but there is always next year for that!

She's getting there slowly. I'm just going over her looking for little things to fix while I wait to move. I don't want to start my swap until I get to Florida in the fall. I'm just saving up for it at this point. I got the car tinted recently and it looks good. I've got to get my skirts to fit better and the exterior will be almost done (except for paint).
I really dig the look of your stock skirts. I have always been torn between keeping my 404's or going with the stock ones. They just look so simple and clean I love it. My front lip flows a bit better with the 404's though so I keep them around. I just need to get them to fit better, the part behind the driver door won't stay stuck to the car with the double sided tape since the fitment is lined up well enough. Looks like that will be my next project when I can push the vette out of the garage for a few days.
