    Great video! The editing was very good. How long did it take you to put it all together?

    While I wasn't a fan of the music either, you did integrate it into the video really well.

    Excellent video, throughly enjoyed it. You have a great Celica community over there. I love the way all the same generation Celicas were lined up together. How many ST162/5s are were there at the meet ? Do you always get a lot of ST series Celicas every year ?

    When we did our first UK meet, we had 18. The following year 10, and the the 3rd year......only 2 :(

    Thanks, glad you liked it. Has given work to do, but your comments compensate. ;)

    I recognize that the choice of music was a little risky. Most people do not like this genre of music. But I chose it because the pace is too aggressive. :twisted

    Thanks Jaco, editing the video took about 1 month, working every day. but before the meet Celicas, I spent 2 months to watch tutorials to learn how to work with After Effects. :rolleyes:

    Thank you Steve. They were around ten ST162/ST165. In total there were about 50 Celicas of all generations.
    Here in Portugal, every year, more people appear.

    Maybe these numbers back to Increase in UK.:thumbsup:

    The number of ST162/5 have never been much on the club scene in the UK. It's like the unloved Celica :(

    I have been a ST owner for about 25 years and I still love looking at it everytime I walk into my garage :)

    I met a person who is selling a banded Steel wheels 15x8 in front and 15x8, 5 behind with 195 50 R15 tires and he lent me to put on my car to see how it looked, but I don’t liked see too.

    If I stay with the wheels, I would painting them in white with "sticker bomb" in center.

    Tell me what you think, maybe I change my opinion :D

    Never been a fan of steel wheels. It doesn't look good, maybe in a different colour it will look better.:confused:

    Not my style, but if you keep 'em paint them all black. Without the little blue stripe.:) Sticker-bomb is a big no!:confused:

    I'd also prefer the previous rims you had. I've never been too keen on steel wheels... They've always looked a bit too try-hard.

    Looks like the majority is voting towards the previous rims.

    I also agree that previous wheels looks better.

    I will put white wheels again :D

    If you want nice affordable rims, here's a tip!

    This is a borrowed picture, but i bought the same type of rims for my car. The wheels are actually from an old Toyota camry V6 belive it or not! Looks great anyways! :)

    Always good to have a little experiment and see what works and what doesnt. Lovely Celica all the same.



    Great tip! Might follow that one myself...

    These wheels are very common ... I'm looking for something more different than usual. :peace

    For that style wheel in 5x100, you will most likely have to order Panasports to get a 14" or 15" wheel. Check with www.panasport.com for what you are looking for.
