im normally around the philly/kop area.

wing is huge and the front bumper seems out of place. maybe get a front bumper grill to cover the tiny FMIC?

lol, its funny how some of you think these things look out of place. all the body parts are OEM toyota parts from the celica GT-Four. its an OEM look, much like the oem spoiler and front bumper vents on an evo or sti.

if you could cover the outer two sections on either side all you'd see is the core of the ic, and that'd be cool

yeah, your right. i have a set of foglights and bezels that are ment to go there to cover up the ic pipes. i just havent had time to install them .

havent gotten it on a dyno or a track yet, but i might stop by philly dyno works sometime this summer to see where im at. it should be somewhere over 200hp at the wheels.

like the engine and interior, everything else must go. wing is huge and the front bumper seems out of place. maybe get a front bumper grill to cover the tiny FMIC?

[TROLL]

i think the only thing that really stands out is the bumper opening. if you could cover the outer two sections on either side all you'd see is the core of the ic, and that'd be cool
i dig the car though, sounds like its got a lot of work in to it. get it on a dyno or to a track?

[james_ls]

I think if the front bumper was lower...it'd be sick nasty.

I love it though...where are you from?

[lagos]

i live in philly

for anyone that dosnt know, this is where the car gets its looks from

[BradC]

i think the reason the bumper looks out of place is the angle some of the pictures were shot at exposing the FMIC behind it. If it was all black with maybe a black grill over it or just having the FMIC painted black woudl make it not look out of place. Still think the wing is huge, even in the pic of the other car you posted.

Very nice. Is it an all-track? Not many people do Celica's right. This looks good. Ive been helping my freind look for an All-track for the past 3 years. No dice...

no, the car is still fwd. its WAY beyond my skill level to convert the car to awd. you would need Monster Garage type of skills to make it happen, not to mention a LOT of money.

the only alltracs that were sold in america were the 4th gen (late 80s) and the 5th gen (90-93). the 6th gen (aka my car, 94-99) was only sold in europe and japan and is almost impossible to buy or import.

so basically, i have the motor from that car, as well as the body parts, but not the awd system.

[the mike]

Nice ride, but someone stole your rear diff!!

I saw your car at the KOP Hooters/Red Lobster meet a few months ago. It's a shame the Celica AllTrac wasn't produced in larger numbers over here.

I like it.

[SUB2.5RS]

It's a nice looking Celica, I like the entire car the way it is.

[BlackBulletTSi]

Yea thats a nice looking celica if I say so myself.

[TalonTsi97]

Im not the biggest fan of that body style but your car does look good, and is well modded. Have any hp or track numbers?

[the mike]

Are you positive we didn't get a 6th gen AttTrac? I thought we did, just not the turbo version.

110% sure. if they did, i wouldnt have spent all the time that i did swaping my car and doing everything i did to it. i would have just bought the alltrac, would have been cheaper..lol

Well either way I really like your car. Do they make a front lip for your car? Thats the only thing I would add to the body.

yes, they do have front lip options i can get. problem is, the car is daily driven, and lowered. with the way the roads are in philly, it would get damaged if i got one on there.

im getting a full 3in exhaust done this week, and will probably hit the dyno some time this summer. im expecting around 200-240hp at the wheels on the stock turbo. it may not sound like a ton of power, but is a lot of fun in a car that weighs around 2700-2800lb. in comparison, stock motor that came with my car makes about 115hp at the wheels.
