World's worst Tercel

[nishy]

I can actually see the econobox VIP in this. A simple 3 piece ducktail spoiler, side skirts, blast pipes and some sort of different/lower front bumper with fog lights and chrome accessories all around.

When you say ducktail, do you mean like a RB 240 type?

Those are my new wheels. I'm actually really really happy with them... I put the CRX lip back on for a temporary thing, and it just made me love it more. I'm finally starting to be happy with it lol



I'm on the lookout for a nice front bumper and skirts, but the aftermarket for these isn't exactly.... VIP inspired ya feel? haha
Maybe put aftermarket fogs in the stock bumper, and keep the lip?

Also took this sexy ass photo before I put the lip on. I love this so much





One more note, I drag exhaust on flat roads under medium/hard acceleration now. On uneven roads or roads that have a little curve to them, it's 100% straight dragging. Gotta get that fixed cause I'm not even that low

Are those wheels your new ones, or are they still on the way?

I just really like this pic for some reason. Needs to be lower tho

Whaddup S|W, I got a "new" set of wheels, this time with actual good fitment. Let's see if anyone here can identify what the wheels are before I give it away As far as I know, I have one of the only sets in the US if not the only set. Imported as of Monday.

Only problem I have is one of them isn't holding air... going back in to the shop that mounted them on Saturday or Friday... But anyway, specs are 14x5.5 +45 with 50mm spacers up front, and only 15mm on the rears right now. I have a pair of 25mm on the way from somewhere which should flush out the rears no problem. As far as ride height, coils are maxed out in the downwards direction, and have maxed out negative camber without modifying anything, but still have all of the collars and everything on. I'm going to wait until I get all four wheels on until I set the ride height, but I'm trying for another inch or so lowered. I **** being a monster truck like this




If anyone is curious, I took inspiration from two cars in particular. Now I know that both of these cars are leagues above mine and are way more put together, but I can dream
Scottie's y33


and benznotmercedes' Mazda6

Just pull those collars and droop spring! That's what I had to do on my GC (2.5RS) because the fronts came only mm's away from the axle. Helped me go down about another inch or so. Just leave the upper collar on and move the locking collar to the bottom of the coilover to seat against the bottom edge.

Shit, that's actually a really good idea. At the very least I'll remove the collars this weekend. Thanks yo! I don't know why I didn't think of that

Last night after I got home from work I said fuck it finally and wanted to try to slam it.... didn't go as smoothly as I wanted.... I got this far down the coilover


and then I literally ran into a problem. The bottom of the strut hit the CV axle. So two turns back up, and thats where I stopped.


Rears are sitting like that too. So now I have to either cut the springs, or get different springs. Prolly just gonna cut them for a while and see how bad that is. If it's okay, that'll be a permanent temporary solution. I've never said it here, but money is not something I have a ton of so spending a couple hundred on new springs is kinda daunting

Also, I put the steelies back on because now with the front lowered the other wheels wouldn't fit. I gotta say, black steelies make the car look lower

I'd let her lubricate my piston rod if you know what I mean

@rice yeah you're right. Or even better, no females, just car parts

even better, a female made of car parts?

[nishy]

Looks like a small pull would allow you to go down quite a bit?

Theoretically, yes. However that part that isn't pulled is basically solid bondo. Have you ever tried to pull Bondo? It's like trying to pull sheet rock lmao

Step 1:Find a girl that enjoys the simpler less flashy things

Step 2:Tell her that she doesn't need expensive jewelry to make her beautiful

Step 3:???

Step 4:profit!!! spend the money you saved on car parts.




Forget the bitches, keep it up with the tercel.

So people seemed to love my car at C&C this weekend. There was pretty much always a crowd around it, and this was the result I kinda left out the left rise of the roof in that pic cause that's where people liked to draw dicks apparently



I'm also not really happy with how the car is sitting.. the fitment is okay, but its still a monster truck. I would rather be hover craft fitment and 1" off the ground than flush like I am now and 3" up :/ I might go back to my stock steelies to get the ride height down, then find some wheels thatll work there.




Oh yeah, I was going to buy some 14" Toms Spirit C3s, but instead I bought the female a very nice necklace for her birthday instead... and then I broke up with her later that same day. Yayyyyyyyyy.... So, kinda in a lose lose situation. Oh well. Shit happens

[nishy]

Oh man. I saw a red tercel (and have seen many other times now) that was super clean and had the BMW style body kit all-around. It inspired me that a Tercel could be a really cool commuter car build!

Now I'm really glad to see this. You seem to have good taste and I'm intrigued to see what you continue to do with it!

Yeah, that's called the M3 kit... as far as I know, it's only for the coupes, but I would only want the side skirts for it anyway haha

I love that y'all love it makes me feel good

Looks sick with the spoiler!
