I was over at Santa's workshop today...

[MFChop]

Justin,
I've been following your progress on the car. Remember back like 6 years ago when you had just gotten it, slapped on the white konig rims and vinyl lettering? What a transformation, proud of you dude, can't wait to see it finished.
John Mauser from NC

[lowredcruzr]

[Carbonized_GT]

wow! that thing looks devious!

[jlitman]

Soon to be a new color...

[02celica]

tthing looks crazy!!! :AF: :AF: :AF: :AF: it doesnt really look like a celica anymore but its all good!!! lol gonna be a fast lil ****er!!! and you gonna do anything with the gaps by the tails? also are you going to keep the roll cage exposed or try to hide it some way??

[lowredcruzr]

the tail lights are not bolted in they are just hanging there most of the cage will be covered up once the interior is finished

[wtcnbrwndo4u]

Geez, that's nuts! But dude, that shifter is so HUGE!

[lilcoop_69]

damn!!!! very nice indeed... twin turbo coming too??!?!?!? :gap:

[lowredcruzr]

no single turbo and i have a short shifter i just hasn't been installed it takes about 3" of the the height

[vyets]

how are u meant to park with a car that fat? hahaha
looking good man!

[S|Lv3rBu||et]

no single turbo and i have a short shifter i just hasn't been installed it takes about 3" of the the height


That will help, the shifter does look a little uncomfortable....

What color are you planning on Justin, or can you tell us? ;)

Either way the car is at the same time stunning, awe-inspiring and frightening!

What are you planning for those gaping holes in the front? Oil/tranny coolers? Fog lights? Mesh?

[yello2k3]

dammmn, I acutally really like the gold with the yellow headlights I along with many other people im sure am dying to know what color it will be when done

[Carbonized_GT]

Geez, that's nuts! But dude, that shifter is so HUGE!


giggity

[celica_2nr]

...i dont know what to say. i love everything about the car except for the hood. but everything else is just...wow.

[GSBoek]

What about steering, figured that out yet?

[sdsu_celica01]

:drool:

Looking good! Keep up the work!!!

[Jintei]

Q: Are you going to keep that bodykit?

[lowredcruzr]

yeah i'm gonna keep the body kit i built 90% of it by hand

[greddyturb0]

atleast you can say that you actually made this car yourself unlike some of the other people out there.

[DarkGTS5]

:bowdown: that thing is a BEAST!

[celica_2nr]

the back of your wbk sorta looks like the one from nfs hot pursuit

[lpphreakx06]

nice work.

[johnmauser]

absolutely speechless... I know I've got your original car pics around here somewhere. I'll try to get them scanned and get them to you.
John

[lowredcruzr]

john you are the man thanks so much i'll give you a call here soon. plus i'll have my wheels back from powdercoating on thurs

[BruceBruce]

....I want one....

[hombredelassrta]

so will it be ready for HIN and BOTI? i'd really rather not have to compete against you in the celica class in boti if possible :gap:

[lowredcruzr]

it will be going to HIN but it wont be done, and brucebruce i'll build you one it'll just cost ya

[youngxlos]

i just wished you would of picked a different kit! but ether way good work on the car

[nhat179]

goddamn wide. look awesome bro

[trd_gts]

damn so close to being done!!!!!

[BruceBruce]

im going to take a wild guess and say it might be a lil outta my price range, plus id be without my celica for a while...

but should i find a non-running one...
we might have to talk

[VoodooTRD]

holy crap that is nuts! can't wait!

[rinkman07]

i just wished you would of picked a different kit! but ether way good work on the car

x2

[lowredcruzr]

i see that your saying you wish i picked another kit. what would you want an APR kit on the car. no thanks. i built 97% of this kit by hand. the front is a blitz that i widened and made some changes to but i like the blitz its aggressive and flows with the design of the car. the rear is a bomex i love the lines of the rear bomex kit it also allows for me to add a rear carbonfiber diffuser. As far as the rest of the car i hand built it all from scrach you may not like it and thats ok i built this to only make one person happy and thats me. Sorry that i'm not running around looking like every other car out there sorry that i'm not spending my money to support some companys kits i wanted my own. This is it take it or leave.

Brucebruce- i'm getting ready actually to make a rwd conversion kit for the celica i have just located a shell that i can use. Everything will be a bolt up kit except for a little mod. that you will have to do in the rear but every thing should bolt right in. the mock up will be for a 4age motor out of the corolla and using the rear diff out of an all track celica i dont have a date yet for the completed kit but sometime in the next 8 months i hope. but i'll keep everyone posted

[GTsRasta]

Awesome progress man! Keep up the good work!

Wait...WAT :eek: You're telling me that you're going to create a kit that can convert my car RWD??? Will I be able to keep my 2zz engine?!?!?!

[natewan31]

holy sh*t..:eek: ihave to see this car in person, hope you attend some shows in the northeast!

[lowredcruzr]

not sure about keeping the 2zz engine for the RWD conversion if i can fine a transmission that i can mount up to the 2zz and make it work then yes you will be able to keep the 2zz and go rwd. If you guys can find a donor motor (it can be blown) for me try and make a transmissions fit let me know

[trd_gts]

please make it fit the 2zz so i can start saving already!

[SquareEnix]

Do I hear a groupbuy coming up in the near future?

[silverCELICAgt-s]

he is planning on basing his product off the trueno drift corolla engine and all trac celica rear driveshaft.

[BruceBruce]

Well see, Im in LOVE with that kit...
ive alwaysed loved the rear before you made it a widebody...
could i get a tsumani/widebody custom made??(not like i could afford it anytime soon)
But still...Im Jelous

[lowredcruzr]

yeah i could make a tsumani work

but like i said i need a 2zz motor first to see what i can mate up to it. other wise it will be the 4age motor and trans

[celi_pinoy]

that looks like a transformer from behind. all in all your car looks sweet, no bout adoubt it.

[GSBoek]

yeah i could make a tsumani work

but like i said i need a 2zz motor first to see what i can mate up to it. other wise it will be the 4age motor and trans
Ever toyed with the idea of dropping an MR-S-like 2ZZ setup in the back of a 7th gen? With I widebody at least you won't have a problem fitting radiators hehe. I was just thinking about that last night as I was watching my car, that's all. With this kinda work you do, sure looks like you could do a midengine too.

[lowredcruzr]

i mid engine can be done we talked about that in the begining but decided against it for this project one day maybe i'll do one

[ATL-GT]

You could always get a sandwich adapter made for the tranny and the 2zz motor...... like some of the kit cars that use a chevy engine and porsche transmission.

[lowredcruzr]

yeah i started looking at the porsche transaxle earlier some thing may just work out but im still looking for a 2zz block so i can try and mate the two together

[silverCELICAgt-s]

justin my roommates totalled celica is a no go, sorry man, his insurance company is taking it.

anyword on your wheels gettin back from powdercoating?

[lowredcruzr]

Well Fu(k i wounder if he can buy it back and for how much. i dont have the wheels back yet but should in the next day or 2

[S|Lv3rBu||et]

^^ Good idea... you can usually buy them back from the insurance companies failry cheap.

[silverCELICAgt-s]

even though its considered totalled they gave him 4 g's for it

[lowredcruzr]

tell him to call the insurance company and see if he can buy it back my parents bought my sisters totaled 95 celica back from the insurance company for 400 and fixed it for under 1000 just tell him to find out if you dont mind

[S|Lv3rBu||et]

Hey!
It's been like, 18 days.... I demand updated pics!!!!

[silverCELICAgt-s]

he is prolly waiting for his wheels to come back from powdercoat before he posts anymore pics.

[lowredcruzr]

yeah i'm waiting on the wheels. i installed the BBK today they are pretty other than that nothing is new the new house thing and the kid on the way is taking up alot of my time right now

[hombredelassrta]

[lowredcruzr]

[lowredcruzr]

this is true i think he will be driving it before me. I'm not sure when it will be done here is what is happening in the next few weeks, i get to move into my new house in about one week, my kid is due in 4 weeks (or anytime) then they start the build on my new shop at the house in about 7 weeks. so i am staying pretty busy. Hopefully when the wheels on the car it will motivate me to do some more work but i need to sell this 240sx that i'm doing to make some money too so if anyone is interested in a 91 wide body 240sx with a turbo charged ka motor let me know. it will be a fun little drift beast

[lowredcruzr]

[kaminaricelica7]

^ yep

[celica guy]

updates?

[hombredelassrta]

lol wow bump from the dead. the suspension is just about done but he isnt going to post updates till the car is complete. unfortunatly other projects keep pushing it ot the back

[lowredcruzr]

yeah i'm done posting pics of it. i posted some pics about a month or so ago and a few members gave me crap for making it a rwd car so i'm done posting pics. the suspension and 90% complete and floors are gonna go in shortly. The reason the car is being pushed back if a bought my fiance a celica and we have been working on it HIN is only a few months away and there is alot of work to be done.

[trdmsprts27]

Sweet mother of god man what have you done!!!!!!!! :eek: looks like its been on one of the monster garage episodes lol. So when you going to post up some current pics??? It looks bad a$$ so far.

[lowredcruzr]

read the last post the site wont get any more pics until its finished sorry just tired of some of the smack ppl like to talk. if you want pics i can email them to you directly

[bman365]

If your site gets up, the ones interested can look on there. Im all for customizing stuff, widebody and a bigger motor is always better. Keep it up :thumbup:

Was that pic taken at the Hard Rock Cafe parking lot at Broadway at the Beach in Myrtle Beach, SC by chance?

Looks like it.

[lowredcruzr]

[hombredelassrta]

look at that ricer mobile :D red tint, white wheels?? ;) j/p that is allot of work to have done right after the car came out

[lowredcruzr]

right after that pic was taken i went home and pulled the full interior and smoothed it out and had it painted. then had a full fiberglass enclosure built man i miss the days of that.

[celica guy]

[lowredcruzr]

[TRlPPlN]

[sn1p3r845]

hurry

up

[vegeta4ss]

Justin,

care to share any updates to this project now that you finished with your wife's celi?

[lowredcruzr]

nothing new the chassis is finished but i may take it back out and go chromemolly. also want to make molds of the rear cut it all off and do it in cf or fg to lighten it up. but right now i'm a little more focused on my supra just got the motor and the body kit for it. not i gotta order the suspension and wheels. sorry i dont have any better updated on the beast

[vegeta4ss]

I didn't know you got a supra. That's awesome.

I'm curious to see if you and andrew take different approaches to the rear axle mounting and reinforcement.

Do you have an autoclave if you plan to redo some of those parts in raw carbon? Your gonna need one if you want high tensile strength.

[sc2jz]

^^^ this car is what made me go ahead with the 2j when ur car is done we should all meet at a show!

[Entranced]

you picked up a supra? how can you afford so many project cars?! haha.

[celicayounggun]

i need to see this finished product widebody celica!
also whats the link to the site ive heard about? if its up and running

[lowredcruzr]

i picked the supra up in a trade. i did alot of custom work for a guy and when it came time to pay he didnt have the funds so i took his supra in trade. my rear setup is prob gonna be way different then his. i build a full tube chassis for my celica sounds like he is trying to just modify his rear to fit under the back of the celica lots easier to do. and when mine is done we can def have a meet

[reguile]

Build me a mid engine LS1 Celica lol.
I will pay you.. 15k in pennies.

Jordan, you got a new Z?? They are really nice!! I sat in one when I was car shopping and was really impressed with how much they improved the design interior/exterior of the 370z over the 350z. I ended up needing 4 doors so I could fit my skis or bicycles in the car so I went with a 335xi. I wanted a two door but I just need more space for my crap. But I lovvvve the new 370z! Do you still have the celica?

Celica is gone... the Zed is pretty much as awesome as all the reviews claim. Nissan did a remarkable job with this car. Just got through the break in miles this week and am now able to beat up on it a bit :thumbup:

Will be doing some projects (nothing too crazy) eventually with brother Justin and Martin, formerly of XAT Racing.

[evilthorne]

J your comparing the Supra to the 370z. Shame on you.
