  • The Celica - change of plan :D

    Postby Nay » Fri Sep 23, 2011 6:33 pm

    Just thought I would throw this up here for anyone interested on what I have been up to with the car :D


    Bought the car when I was 18 and she looked like this
    Image
    Standard UK 140 in silver

    That was ok for a while then decided I wanted more noise so cheap ebay SRI fitted :) and a cheap strut brace
    And not long after had some wolfrace triad wheels fitted
    Image

    Stayed like that for a while, then got the cobra exhaust from exhaustsuk and a decat from CCUK
    Image

    Then.... Bodykit and love 'em or hate 'em lambo doors :)
    Image
    Image

    EBC Discs and yellow stuff pads alround

    Needed more power so got a 190 dropped in there ;)
    Image

    Carbon Bonnet
    Image
    Image
    Recently fitted HEL Lines
    Image (I like yellow)
    and a new exhaust to take the 190 lump a bit better :( Dual exit longlife with decat
    Image
    Image

    Hoping to get the bodywork like this..... will be black from windows up and orange below :D
    Image

    Its now running a c30 rotrex supercharger

    Unfortunately the engine went pop a few months ago and have been getting stuff sorted. It is going away next thursday to have its new fully forgeed engine with 2.0l Stroker and PPE Header, stage 3 bits and a lo more boost :D

    Hi Mate

    What's the latest on your Celica? Back on the road anytime soon?

    I'll see you more often now I've had the remap. Milestone petrol station is now my second home.

    Speak soon

    Had you thought about swapping the lump for a 3S-GTE unit, in the Fensport stylee ( http://www.fensport.co.uk/FensportCars/ ... GT4_X.aspx ) ? or getting rid of the supercharger and slapping in a "disco potato" (Google is your friend on this one :lol: ). Looks good though.

    I did look into doing a 3s-gte swap but it was gonna cost me best part of 20k for all the fabrication etc lol :D so thought I would go with the supercharger. Next year brings more possibilities though with twin charging and possible 4wd etc, :D

    When I first bought the car I planned to keep it standard lol, how wrong I was :D

    Nice Stoppers there Nay. AP's are one of my fav's 8) . What size are they? Had Evo X Brembo's with 350mm discs fitted to mine last week.

    Will be a beast once you have it completed.
