Celica Forums General Discussion General first thing 2 do to your cexica

Reverse Indiglo Gauges $65

FULL MTECHh Lighting Package $90

The first thing I did was have a $1600 MP3/CD system put in, then I had two red neons put in under the dash (one in each foot well.) And then I managed to rip two brand new stock Yokohama tires which ended up costing me like $300 or so to replace, and even then the people I dealt with saved me around $100. So with that being said, I haven't had the cash to do any actual modding, but I hope to either get S-Ram, TRD exhaust or Trial exhaust, or TRD shocks and either TRD springs or something else a bit more affordable. Then rims would be next, or safe some cash and just get the stock GTS rims powder coated gunmetal. But that's all quite some time away unfortunately.

rims Alessio Turbo Hypersilver 17x7.5 $640

intake, gauges, lightin and rims will be around $995. Thats what id get if i had $1g to spend

Yo, i live in VA too, close to DC.. They've got laws about everything. No clear tail lights, exhaust, you name it, they probably have a law against it... Sooo damn lame. The first thing i did was Injen intake Exhaust and turbo kit are next when i have enough dough, then rims and a suspension kit w/ drop. Although I am working on putting in a in-dash pc with custom interface and touch screen 7 lcd panel. It'll do GPS, mp3, fm, local tv, dvd, snes emulation, wireless comm. also it'll be a good place to hook up my digital cam. Something like this: http://www.letscommunicate.co.uk/carpc/ Cost around $1,600, since i will do the install myself. Definately want that turbo soon though.. Only reason i got the gt.

I know this areas gay... i think they have a law on how low you can drop your car too but i think the people you get 2 do it will know. I haven't heard anything about clear corners though... do you think thats legal?

drop then rims

whats a zex kit?

debadge and s2000 antenna. Total cost: $20.

Then, I tinted the windows, which was about $175 (as I recall).

...this is probably a stupid question but what the hells a debadge?

when you take off the toyota and gt or gts logo. all it takes is a hair drier i think ? by the way im getting rims put on tommorow. no money for drop yet

Here's what it looks like afterward:

wat are some cheap upgrades that i can do to my '90 Celica w/ a swaped 96 engine?

niiice... you think i should get a kit first... before i get my car painted? ... or get it painted... then kit?

nice.. lol did you get the silver or white fill in?

neither, I have carbon fiber. Here's a closeup:

good combo you know where a good price for sportlines are?

got it

those are discontinued for the GTS

With my 1G I would personally get a Short Shifter make driving that much more enjoyable..tint my windows 20% or less and 35% down windshield then I would get an Intake and depending on how much is left and exhaust.

But Iam more for GO than anything else when it comes to my ride

evan, any links to the liscense plate holder thingy made outta Carbon Fiber? is that fake Carbon Fiber btw?

thanks

Fake, yes. I got mine from skdmorse, but he bought it off an ebay user. They have them on ebay all the time.

hm.. id would get rims and coilovers

neither, I have carbon fiber. Here's a closeup:

PM if you want instructions on how to install..

haha i love you already!

bodykit or a nice system

first thing to do: drive it around. hit lift. burn some rubber and gas. rev high

either rims and drop and then bodykit, or body kit then rims and drop. I did body kit first but if i did it again i would probubly do rims and drop first

it came with the action package... and i like that body kit... do you suggest a better one?

keep the action package and spend your money on some rims

Werd!

S2000 antenna and drop it.

RIMS and TIRES bro

He's a she

haha thanx buddy

aright thanx a lot guyz i ordered the s2k antenna put that on already... now im savin for the baby blue camelion.. (however you spell it)paint job.. which is 3grand... after the paint job im orderin decals and my parents r paying for my mirror tint job.. then ill prolly do small mods lyke get a sparco short stick shifter ...metal floormats...etc... possibly a drop although i still dont know how low va will actually let you drop it in inches.. ima drop it neway.. thanx guys 4 ur help tho

The paint will be awesome

Might wanna reconsider the floormats though.. too much bling-bling

so.. you think the silver would be too much?.. what do you suggest?

Yeah, the chrome look would be a little over the top, in my opinion. Why not just use the stock floormats? They're really nice, they fit perfectly, and they even say "CELICA"
