Hey, how's it going StanceWorks. I figured I would throw up a "Build" thread for my car. I have an 04 Toyota Celica GT so don't **** too much, I know it's slow and not too popular in the stance scene.
With this car I am going for just looks since I know it isn't fast and I don't plan on ever doing a motor swap so it will never be fast.
Sorry for the few grass shots. I can't find any others.
Here she is when I first got her. I believe that was around June of 2010,not sure though. 100% stock with 55,000 miles. I was trying to drive in the clouds, that's why there is so much wheel gap.
After a little while I got some TRD lowering springs(Did not go anywhere near low enough), a TRD fuel door, a TRD exhaust, some fogs, did some debadging, and I managed to break my front bumper. Its hard to see in the pictures but there are large cracks on each side of the lower grill. The first pic you can see the zip ties.
Then I picked up my BC Coils and cranked them down what I thought was most of the way.
HellaSunk yo!
Then I got my rims. 17x9 Varrstoen Style 2. Yes I know they aren't legit rims but they didn't break the bank. I also got some Powered by Max lugs since I had never heard of anyone using them and I wasn't 100% sure if I wanted to spend the $200+ on the Kics Neo Chromes.
Mounted some 215/40 Falken 912s on them. Love the stretch these give.
And then here we are now. 2 years and 30,000 miles later. I have cranked my coils all the way down which was about half a turn more than before. Efff.
Right now my plans for it are to get the front bumper replaced here within a week or so. I have the lip in the mail I just need to go to the stealership to pick up the new bumper and get it painted. Hopefully within the next week my extreme drop kit from BC will get here so I can get my car to a proper height.
Also, I plan on removing the giant rear spoiler on the back that a few of you cringed about when you opened this thread. I just haven't done that yet since there are 8 very large holes under the extremely strong adhesive that I will have to fill in and get painted. That will hopefully happen when I get the front bumper painted.
Further plans:
BBS LM's 18x9 and 18x10.5
JDM Sidemarkers
OEM HID Headlights
Spacers
And whatever other trinkets I find along the way.
I think that is pretty much all my plans for it so thanks for hanging in there and at least looking at all the pictures. Let me know what you think.
