(Last's Project: Elude)
Feels weird talking to a car but call me crazy, I've been talking to mine every time I walk by it to and from work and school. started calling it Elude
Synopsis
1990 Celica Alltrac Turbo 140k miles (on the dot)
Car was hit not to long ago and it rocked the car a bit, mostly cosmetic but something is going on on the right rear strut its sitting an inch lower than the left.
Car currently has
~40k mile JDM motor
front and rear poly motor mounts
Aussie DP
Aussie Mid
3" Truck Muffler (inspection purposes)
Cosmetic (int/ext)
CS Bumper
Scion TC wheels
2k3 Celica GT cloth seats
2k3 Celica Floormats
Plans
Stage 1 - Repair Damage to the car
- Replace Filler Pannel
- Replace Bumper Cover
- New Bumper Reinforcement
- Fix Strut
Stage 2 - Paint/Rust prevention
- Drop the back end out
- POR-15 the underside
- Powder coat control arms sway bars ect... (and new endlinks!)
- Paint /prep (decide if I want to go CS hood or not)
- 92-93 Tails (ordered them from Gary today!)
- Clean interior (add 2k+ GT Cloth back seats)
Stage 3 - Suspension brakes
- Coil overs or Coil over Strut mod
- Brownbo brakes (evo brembo's)
Stage 4 - Engine performance/safety
- new Exhaust cutout right after DP
- Turbo Timer
- FMIC
- Boost Controller
Stage 5 - Vanity
- Proper Wheel offset combo (deciding)
Pictures of the car:
rear end damage
Stage 1 and 2 are totaling at $400 so I'm feeling confident
Stage 3 need to get a figure on some coil overs and get a proper figure on how much/soon the evo owner is going to part with his brownbos
Stage 4 undetermined, exhaust will be part of my class project in the welding class I'm taking this fall but the rest will run about 700
Estimated figure for stage 1-4 = 2500-3000
wile on the subject any one interested in an Aussie 3" mid?
