Yes its a pusher fan, Just got the car done not too long ago. He just turned 20, and did all the work himself on a super super tight budget. I guess you just have to know him to respect it.. He loves this car more than anything. haha and thank you Stefndogg!

i like the 4 door, its clean, etc...but this "tucked" fad has gotten kinda weird..this isnt the first time i've seen a car at a show with important parts taken off because of the "look"

good shape though, especially for the midwest! seems like there is quite a honda scene down there for ya jolly. with fricken chicago had that. massive city, and the scene is kinda dead.

tracks arent as dead anymore though, which is nice.

Most the cars are my friends. haha Kinda dead here.. But its growing! which is always a plus! There is a ton of young kids that get Honda's and give my friends and I a terrible name because they are young and beat the **** outta their cars.. So the cops just group us all as one which is no good. haha

Same **** happens here which is a main reason I don't have aftermarket wheels or muffler on my Rex. The more stock it is, the less attention I receive. Though, now that I have the rust bucket to daily drive, I'm putting my LS and a noisy exhaust back in/on it.

Besides missing a few engine stuff, the wheel choice is just odd. And yes, waay too low.

Thats not his wheel choice.. They are the stock hubcaps... He doesn't have money for wheels right now. He doesn't give a **** about function... He wants to be low... so he is. lol He didn't build it to be a track car or anything.

Those hub caps look like they're off an Accord/Prelude. He had enough duckets to get Koni's for the front! lol

Jolly, car looks good! I was slightly against your JDM front, mainly b/c your car looked great to begin with, but it looks like it came out perfect! Nice work.

I feel ya on the rice burners painting an ugly picture in the community. I refuse to let it steer me away from my hobby though, I think having a full grown beard helps the police realize that Im not in high school anymore! and that I dont hard park in local lots with 10 of my rice buddies seeing whose exhaust is the loudest.
I start to just tell people I work on Imports, saying Honda gives them the wrong idea most of the time, especially when they have not seen my cars.
I try not to tell anyone local what goes on in my driveway/garage... My good friends know.. but clowns as I call them think Im rolling around all stock. You guys on here have a better idea what goes on! Dont let me see your faces snooping around on my video camera!





Those struts/tophats stick up really high on that sedan! I think the car would look better and drive better with just some moderate changes..For a tight budget build, not bad. I just think that drop is a little drastic. Just my .02
-He should definitely pull his clutch cable out at the next show, its super ugly!

Hard to claim a clean sedan in here, especially a white one... Matt (NA) is to blame!

...and hopefully it will stay cleaner for longer because she went on garage rest as of yesterday. Despite the tranny leak, the Celica has been good on daily duty the last two days. Door dings, speed bumps, pot holes, rock chips, tire wear, wheel curbage and theft are no longer a point of stress.

For the sedan? Naw, I move too slow and don't have a lot of spare time to invest to make a dedicated build thread worthwhile. It would likely just end up being a discussion thread anyway. This thread will basically be my build thread.

Here you go, my "build thread" all in picture form...
