Lift never gets boring. Its that first 6k rpms that's boring. ;)

Yeah, and soon as I get bored, I hit lift. And if that starts to get a little boring, I take it to some backroads for fast turns and constant 6k rpm+ driving. Oooh, does that get the heart going again.

My Celica is approaching two years old. I still love her as much if not more when I first bought it. I only resent that she's not rear wheel drive, but that's okay. At least she's purty :p

Oh, and if I don't feel like driving, I wash it up good, and stand back and admire.

The body still does it for me, but the automatic tranmission is another story

She's different.. No other car, appearance wise is exactly like her. You can pick her out on a dark night, on the highway or in a crowded mall parking lot. Not to mention the performance of it. 6 gears.. I mean how many cars offer the 6th gear.. and the lift. I'm talking like sport cars, in our car's range. It's just an overall great package..
There is endless things you can do to it, and the endless joy you get from doing it yourself.
I love the attention it draws once it's all modded. The stock ones are boring but the define lines are just beautiful.
Everytime I look at my celica I fall in love all over again.

You should keep it cause trading and selling cars is a very expensive thing to do.

stock ones are boring? :confused:
dunno bout that, the difference between stock and modded on our cars really isn't that big in both engine performance and looks. Suspension however...... ;)
BTW, I'm talking generally here, kits and the like, not crazy custom stuff.

Yeah, almost all kits make the Celica look like ****. So, to say a stock Celica is boring, I think a riced car is boring; they all look tge same (I take a dump once, if not twice a day, and my dog ****s enough, I don't need to see more on the road). Graphics make it even wrose. Fortunately, in my area, rice doesn't go too far, and it is usually the minority. I have yet to see a horrible Celica in my area, but I know they exist.

At my age everyone has to do it for me, why should the Celica be any different?? :)

Well, I've been there, and My car is prolly one of the most modded cars on the site... But, when I wax her up all nice, and stand back and look at what I've done to her... I smile, and realize the only reason I'll get rid of her is because it's necessary...

I don't have a body kit (there isn't one that I want), I don't have replacement shocks, nor do I have the AEM pullies...
But, other than that, I've done about as much as I can do to it... without getting into wild custom stuff... I've got mostly everything available for my car...
And while there are many others who have as much, possibly more than me, the majority of celi owners on this site, haven't done half of what I've done...
and the mod list in my sig isn't complete, I left out quite a few items that always seem to slip my memory...

i dont list mods like headlight stuff(bulbs) or tint or tiny things like that.
i would have a ton of stuff than.
i would like to see what you've done with your car.:)

Sorry, but when I pay over $150.00 for bulbs imported from Japan, I count them as mods...
Did I offend you or something? I said nothing towards you, or about your car, would you like me to retract the statement...?
I don't get it...
BTW, Pics are in my sig, and they're old... from February I think...

05-27-2002, 02:34 AM
no, you didn't offend me at all.
im not mad at you or anything but you said you have the most mods on the site so i was just curious and wanted to see pics.
everythings cool.
i just like pics as you can tell:)

Just to make myself clear, I realize there are others who have more mods than myself....
Nonetheless, carry on as normal :D

YOu need to get my camera :) Only 900 bucks :) I just got your PM and I know a good place to buy it. The places on the internet sell them cheap but they usually try to rip you off. The respectable online places all charge about the same. I bought mine in NYC when I was visiting my folks. Got it for 100 less than retail. Here is the link to the store http://www.bhphotovideo.com
If anyone dosen't believe a digital camera is worth 900 buck check out my pictures with it. http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/mightym0use1975
All but the Korea pics were taken with the Digital(a few scans mixed in)
On the topic I still love my car. Living in Vermont I go an entire winter without being able to drive fast or hit lift. Now that Spring is here I can finally enjoy my car again. The long time off really helps me appreciate my car
