Hello everyone, since i have alot of time on my hands, im starting my progress thread. I dont really have any pics of my car when i first got it, because i really wasnt all too happy after buying my car. But this thread will show everything ive done to it, and how i fell in love with this car!

Next was probably the biggest mistake ive ever done to my car, i bought 70 dollar adjustable lowering sleeves, slapped them on my stock struts, and destroyed all four of my struts, i endured almost 6 months of bouncing all over the road with these!




It was lower, but i was not happy with the ride!

This is where i starting falling in love with my car, and seeing that it actually had potential!




me!


plasti dipped the wheels, then threw some coats of white paint and primer!


After this i started going to more car meets, stance shows, etc, and in 2010 i started getting into what is called the Stance and Fitment scene.

Decided to make my own version of eyelids, everyone did the angry ones, so i mad mines high/sleepy,

painted them tiffany bluish, aqua,

What a beautiful masterpeice is the coilover!

Lower them all the way in the back, but then we had to raise them a little, because the amount of camber!

AWWW YEAAAH!

Still had too much wheel gap in front, so i removed 2 of the 3 locking rings (dont worry, got the idea from pro drifters that want more low to!)


My car next to my moms accord

One random day my cv axle falls out of the cylinder that goes into the trans, and aparently something hit and broke the locking ring that hold the boot on,
so my buddy pushed me all the way home, and bought me a new cv axle, God bless him. Notice i also made a home depot lip that morning!



Bought a horn button for my wheel,

Test fitted my buddy's xxrs but they where not my bolt pattern and a tad bit to big for my wheel wells,

The only toyota in the crew!


I also tinted my side windows by myself, the recent pics show the new tint, didnt take any pics of me doing the work, it was too hot that day!
I will be updating this thread everytime i do something to my car, getting a new tire, a fender, and saving up for ss3 splitters, and if someone can please post a link of clear front blinkers for preface bumpers, i would apreciate it!, cant seem to find them any where!

That wooden steering wheel and plastic shifter really got nothing to do inside a Celica... but that's just my opinion

+ it hurts me to see chrome rims on a Jap car frown.gif

Hmm. if it makes you feel better...They Are Not Chrome!! They are gunmetal. factory color for the 5zigen gn+. and they're tiffany blue now so yeah. and what's wrong with a wooden steering wheel and a classic jdm shifter?

Meh, wood belongs in old cars too. As far as the shifter goes, if I wanted a shifter that tall I'd drive a truck. tongue.gif But to each their own, I'm an old man with traditional views when it comes to cars. tongue.gif

Yup, if it's a 240z then it's between 1970 and 1975 I believe and 260z is 1974-76 or thereabouts. I think wooden steering wheels are a little odd on 80s and 90s cars, but I looove chrome. I'd chrome my body if I could. Watch me gleam as I walk!

Some cars past 1970 it's ok. Like if the rims on that Datsun were smaller, I'd be ok with it. I just don't like big shiny wheels, yes I'm talking to you specifically "donk" owners. laugh.gif
