Badass. 👍

What are you going to do as far as engine mods?

 

[360rider]

Dammmnnn! That looks tight man.

 

[JDMcelica]

engine is pretty much stock, i dont wanna spend money on bolt ons since they dont do that much period on an inline 4.

if i do spend money on the engine tho (which i should since its begging for hp and tq), i'll most likely go stafford fabrications turbo kit for the 1zz-fe. lol but im still debating on that right now.

 

[rollazn]

damn thats hot. 👍 look great.

Looking pretty evil there. I would suggest a supercharger rather than a turbo. But that's my opinion. To me 'turbo' seems cheap and rice-o-riffic.

Am I the only one having flashback to KnightRider?

Very nice looking. Subtle smooth lines make it quite elegant.

Nice. 👍 Just be careful in the rain with the Falkens... they're a bit scary at first.

Am I missing something here?

Your car look's gorgeous man. 👍

 

[VIPFREAK]

Nice, black rules

 

[Super-Supra]

That's lovely. I love the black on black combo. 👍

 

[Josh]

I was a bigger fan of the other wheels you were looking at, but that still looks damn good.👍

 

[TsLeng]

Very nice car.

I reckon the Psstt Psstt of turbo could go well with your car.

 

[Ethix101]

Good choice. Black on Black =

Very nice Celica bud. Definitely like it as is, but hp is nice to add to. If I could suggest, maybe even a Pulsar GTI turbo engine swap, when you get the cash? It would make the whole turbo problem go away, and they ain't too expensive, when considering how much you'd pay for a 2jz engine. But, if not, just don't go 100% rice on us. It's too sweet to ruin.

oh well the 1zz-fe is ideal for a turbo. it has low compression ratio which allows for higher level of boost. the car can get around 240 hp / 200 lbs of torque at 8 psi which is relatively safe. also the 2jz will definately not fit in the celica bay hehe. biggest engine that has been able to fit was the 3s-gte and even those take alot of work and time. also the 3s-gte has been known to throw off the balance of the car in terms of handling, it might be better to just boost the 1zz-fe.

and supercharger is not ideal on an inline four. it wont give you significant amount of performance boost. TRD makes these superchargers for i-4 cars such as matrix, camry, corolla, and what not and they can only give 35-40 hp gain for a 4000 dollar kit. turbo is pretty much the most ideal mod that can be done to a celica perhaps even better than the 7000+ 3sgte swap.

Well do what you like bud, it's a sweet car.

noway man 4wD !

nice celica!

 

[Takumi Fujiwara]

That's been an Idea I've had for a while. Get a celica and turn it into a new-gen GT-Four

 

[XenoN]

Very beautiful! Keep up the good work m8 👍

 

[humbo]

It looks pretty nice, but when you're moving it may look like you got the stock rims without the hubcaps on. A non-black non-white exterior with white rims will forever be my favourite combination though.

 

[Griffin]

Very very sexy and conservative celica. I must disagree on the 5-spoke rim choice. Get some new lights and you got a very nice show car.

 

[Seito4Counter]

can i buy your engine?

 

[pimp racer]

Nice car and yes go with the supercharger.

 

[Axe_Gaijin]

Less is more 👍

Of course I would say that having a Black car
