PIMP-MY-CELICA

THIS IS MY STEP MUMS COROLLA... IT JUST HAS 16x6 WHEELS AND A KENWOOD HEAD UNIT AND MAGNAT 4 INCH SPLITS IN THE FRONT AND BIG ''LOOKING'' KENWOOD SPEAKERS DONT NO WAT THEY R... LET ME KNOW WHAT U THINK OF IT!!! THANX, TYSON

Hmm 17x7.5 sounds abit wide.. i rekon 17x7's are more likely to be legal ( Correct me, please ) cause of safety reasons

If you go for those get good tyres, cause there will be noise coming from cheap tyres.. i mean road noise.. and also if ur getting low profiles

you don't want to spend much..^^ and also you want to make it faster or look good?

Ok by Adding Rims, means adding more weight, maybe a few Kilos, per Rim, besides the Stock Hubbies.. or Alloy ones

if you tend to go for rims, then your car would be slowed down depending on weight, Mmm maybe 2~8% ( Correct me if i am wrong )

Alpine head unit are great , provide good sound...

Get Bostons or pioneer speakers - or add a sub with a 2 farret cap. would be nice..

hehe dont forget you gotta have vinyls... decals..

Wheels = You should get Incubus Paranornal they look heaps good - unless u want Racing Hart or Lenso's :P

Air Intake = Stock suppose to be best, ( I dont know what i am talking abt ) - But go for the K&N Pod Filters with proper piping.. ( This filter just lasts longer and washable - not like stock filters )

(Dashboard) = EL Gauge Dials - Illuminated ones.. i love those..

Well.. I rekon u can spend extra couple of hundred dollars extra, just to polish and detail, interior clean, wax, complete detail.. and other accessories

hey well i would like it to look good b4 i make it go quick... thanx for your help!!

IT COULD BE A STONE IN THE FANBELT!!!! I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM LAST YEAR!!!

THIS IS MY CELICA AND APART FROM THE ALPNE STERIO THE CAR IS COMPLETLY STOCK. I WOULD LIKE TO GIVE IT A BIT MORE POWER WITHOUT SPENDING MUCH MONEY AND I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO PUT A SET OF RIMS ON IT. PREFERABLY 17x7.5.. SO IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS OR ARE SELLING WHEELS JUST GIVE ME A SHOUT...

THANX, TYSON

my mum had one wen i was a kid and she said it was a pit slow so she put a pod filter in it and platnum plugs and it gave it a bit more tourque but then she just said she thought it was still slow so she drove it like she stole it... they are a great car

too kool 4 skool!!! well done!!!

hey mate i would just put platnum plugs, pod filter in it and it should get some more guts..

To bring everone up to date I have bought a 1986 model with the 3S_GELC motor and auto. It came at a bargin price as the power sreer pump was noisy and left a pool of red when parked. Today I have removed the pump and will start looking for a exchange or replacement component. Any help in this respect would be appeciated and also in respect of relacement.

How do you get the pressure side of the pump tight? Do you do it before you put the body in place as it would be difficult to see after. Im sure someone will have had some experiance with this aspect and will save me some problems.

Hope all have a good festive season and don't collet any presants from the road safety enforcers.

hi mate i have an 89 celica with a 3sge engine and i have the same problem but i use automatic and powersteeer fluid and it stops leaking... so if u need to drive the car just do that...

thanx
