Newb, 91 Toyota Celica S/T

[smokinace]

Hello everyone! i found this website and thought it pretty badass, so i figured i would join up! My real name is Seth, and im nextdoor in Alabama. I drive a 91 Celica S/T, 5 speed, 1.6 S.O.H.C, with some Focal F5 wheels, and last week i put a blue neon kit under it. I like fast cars, and 4X4 trucks! Im just a country boy that broke down and bought a import. My car is not fast by any means. The celica is straight piped from the headers back to a Flowmaster Super 40 Series muffler:blah:. i have to say i think it sounds pretty good. But anyways! Here are some pics! tell me what yall think! thx

[TRDwasiq]

[AnTi-PooN]

i say put on some 15's and slam that b**** to the ground

[ryanh300]

Welcome to IA! Clean car man; only thing I could suggest would be to put on some clean 15's, moderately lower it, and lose the blue rice kit.

[Dracc]

going off roading?? welcome

[takume]

lower it with some nice rims. Personally, I don't like neon, but hey, this is your car. BTW, look hella clean, homie.

[Alan®]

"Passengers will be experiencing high turbulence."






Lower that A.S.A.P.

neons or rims not my cup of tea but its your car

[smokinace]

if i had the money to drop it, and put some nice 15s or 16s on it, i would. but im broke. im still in school and dont quite get enough hours at work to do anything with it money wise. I bought the neons cause at night it makes the car look better. if you saw this car in person you would be able to tell that it has a lot of imperfections. the paint is going, the right front fender is full of bondo, the hood got crapped on by birds and ate the clear coat off, etc etc. I thought about swapping the motor a while back cause i found the same car at a junk yard with a 3SGTE single turbo for $300, but that was before i got a job, so i didnt have any money what soever so i couldnt get it. Im about to sell the car to a guy i work with, then he is gonna rebuild it and make a showcar/ricer out of it. Then im buildin a motor in a truck to drive. i gave $800 for the car with the focals on it. But the thing is it has a salvage title and 240,XXX miles on it. it still runs good and has a good amount of life left. i bought it to drive daily, the only thing ive done to it is the exhaust and neons. everything else is stock.

[smokinace]

This is what it sounded like before i cut the cat off if you wanna hear it. ill get one without the cat later tonight.

sorry to hear about the situation financially and all but....

1. The neons not make the car look better just more riced out
2. They are illegal as ****
3. The exhaust is still fuggly it looks like a polished exhaust on a lincoln town car.
4. Don't call what someone else's plans are for your car rice when in fact thats what your car is

Later, redGT

P.S. Q.D. needs to come back :(

Unfortunatly the neons are not illegal. Sorry.

[smokinace]

They are illegal if they are on while the car is running down the road. But as long as the car is at a standstill or parked, cops cant say anything.

[Got Milk?]

[b16ftw]

please lose neons.... and get smaller rims... like 15's... but first lose the neons.

that car could be pretty nice.

[smokinace]

im new here and have gotta ask, what is it with everyone here sayin go to 15's? i like the 17's.

[redrumracer]

lighter, my rims weigh 46.5 lbs a piece. thats alot more than the 26 lbs for the factory rims (that includes tires)

[Alan®]

smaller is bigger don't you know lol

[Evil Goat]

4. Don't call what someone else's plans are for your car rice when in fact thats what your car is


b/c we all know painting stock rims is much less rice-tastic than neons....give the kid a break, who gives a **** what he does with the car as long as it makes him happy.

at any rate, the cars far from clean, you know that, and its all good, dont worry about that car, get your schooling in, get a good job, or youll be painting stock rims and putting on $50 neons for the rest of your life

:lmfao: . Whatever man if my wheels are not your taste that's one thing but I call rice how I see it ok. and played out is not rice. Oversized rimes and blue neons and an exhaust that looks like it belongs on a Lincoln TOwncar :gay: You get the picture :goodjob:

[Evil Goat]

same here....but you shouldn't point fingers, especially when it can be turned on you for having useless mods, also known as "rice"

[Alan®]

ok if your go to argue that point then anyone on this forum with just your average set of motegis or supras with just your average do luck front is rice cause they really don't need them. see my point

[Logan]

We're all ricers admit it.

[Evil Goat]

it's all about opinion....to me, though, function over form is where it's at....others it may not be, and thats cool

[Evil Goat]

We're all ricers admit it.


if you aren't now you have been at one time...hell ill admit it...

my first civic....with mods i never really liked...sometime in late 99 i think

http://a687.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/68/l_9e0ba1b3639cafdb40a2d6e1252d4066.jpg

a week before i sold it, by this time i was doing what i wanted, it still had the stock z6 in it but was now turbo charged...this was in 2003 iirc, and i still consider some things in that picture rice...but thats just me

Damn thats a bad ass basketball goal, do u play alot ?

[smokinace]

Damn, things in ATL are different compared to here. Here the cars with the 6 inch tips, and the unneeded 5 foot tall spoilers are considered "rice". truly, i like how my car sounds. its not extremly loud like some, and i like the tone. most around here have cheap, knockoff cans on them that sound like sh!t. ive been complimented on the way my car sounds compared to others alot. but, like stated above, people have their own opinions. my car is louder now then in the vid. i posted, i had the caty cut of. ill get an updated vid later.

[smokinace]

ohh and i am lookin for different wheels, but i dont know what i want. i do want smaller wheels cause the car rides ruff with the ones on it, and tires are alot higer and ive talked about lowering the car before, but i cant find the parts to doit anywhere. Or the $$$. any pointers? like i said im new to the whole import scene. i was in a 4x4 since i was 16 till i bought the celica. i dont know what is popular on these nowadays. thx

[smokinace]

here is what it sounds like now, the only sound i dont like is coming off rev back to idle.

http://s64.photobucket.com/albums/h162/sleth090/?action=view&current=Picture302.flv

[smokinace]

so, can anyone tell me where i can get a lowering kit? and im also lookin for some nice 15" wheels to put on it for around 300 for a set. im thinking chrome or gunmetal or sumin. But, i am open to sugestions.
