It's like driving a photoshopped Ferrari with splits and 6" lips...

[C2_mad]

do you have a build thread for this?

[C2_mad]

i **** it, think it should be crushed. To make sure it gets done, i will take it off your hands and do it myself at no charge to you....lol

on a seriuos note.... i love everything about it. i loved the first wheels you had with the flat lip and i love these ones now also. that booty shot. god dam! well done sir!

Liking the new wheels

[TruTaing]

My buddy spotted your car a couple weeks ago + posted a pic on his facebook. It sparked a mini discussion on his facebook wall about exactly what your car was :P Half the comments *****, the other half admired :P

Glad to see you still have this, the new wheels look awesome

[reiernumans]

Love the plates, and the new wheels!

Thread resurrection - new wheels.




Rennen CSL 3 20x9 225/30 ET20 + 65mm spacers and 20x11 285/25 ET23 + 85mm spacers

It could be the only Celica with 285/25/20s mounted. Will post a rear shot if the weather ever improves in the PNW.

Edit: Oh, and stripe is long gone.

[TruTaing]

Im still sad I havent seen this thing rollin around!

I love that you have that rack of wheels/tires

[exexpat]

The stripe grows on you. It's brushed aluminum and matches the split spoke theme of the wheels. Here are a couple more pics.

[Kinghorn]

damn, as typical my mind was blown for the first couple of minutes...

I personally like it, and must get so much interest at meets and shows, but kudos for doing something so custom man! Not really feeling the stripe because as mentioned *^ it takes away a clean look from the car.

[Evil Panda]

I love the car, but I feel the stripe takes away from the otherwise clean look to it.

Still pretty cool though.

I still think it needs more tire, but I can't believe the quality of body work. If I saw it in passing I probably wouldn't second guess it.

Damn this is amazing. I can only imagine people's faces when they hear that its a toyota.
There's a video of an mr2 with a ferrari 360 conversion with a 2gr and an oem 360 exhaust and it sounds close to the real thing even though its not a flat plane v8. Have you considered a 2gr swap? I know they came in the toyota blade which is similar to the 7th gen Celica in terms of engine bay size.

I'm actually happy with 2ZZ and 6 speed trans. It weighs nothing - less than a 7th gen Celica.

Something different for sure...
