The Green Celica (the making)

I love the colours on this car. Still a nice find if i say so. When your dad did the respray was there much rust in the car?

Keep posting up with these cars the amount of progress you have done is already amazing.
also unsure if you need fromt and rear swaybars but rev_head is selling his pair for $250

 

That green looks surprisingly good, nice work!

 

looking like its getting treated like a real rally car now.
are you actually sponsored by murchison service station?
as i have filed up there a couple of time on my pops account when we visit them
it's the service station in the main street near meteorite park?.

 

That's cool if they give great deals id drive with the sticker on my car lol
What other plans are there for this car to improve it? an oil cooler and oil filter relocation kit?

 

don't go with a pod filter. stick with the oem box, but put a k&n filter in it as the oem box is already a cold air intake. you'll lose hp.
bigger spoiler for what? if there's one thing that kills the look of the 4th gen celica, it's an aftermarket spoiler.

 

I was actually going to suggest what entraxx said about the panel filter. Im running a custom cold air intake hose to my stock airbox with a k&n panel filter. That way very little mods are needed and with a pod also you would need to build a custom box to make sure cold air does get to it anyways and get an adapter to fit the pod to. All pods do imo is make a loud noise when you hit Tvis but dont really add any hp if not very tiny amount.

But still keep us posted on what you do.
what tines do you usually get in the motorkhanas?

 

actually aftermartket pods have been shown to lose 3hp per 100 over stock box

 

ah ok i never knew that i always thought there was a slight differene but might be mainly the noise they make that makes you think that.
