    About a 20 mile drive from where I live yes. For sure bro, I'm down for a meet. I see alot of ST16x owners around, just wish they would join the forums so we can have a fairly large meet. If we go for a cruise we just have to make sure we don't hit traffic because my radiator fans don't work lol

    I know that these are now on your car and when you get the chance, could you please take a picture of the work done by your friend on the modification to the holes and how they sit on the car (bolts) Thanx.

    yaaayy!!! You didn't completely part out the car! This makes me very happy. :D
    Glad to see you're still alive. :p

    Yeah, first to go were my set of wheels

    A few other items were sold but she's still here..

    I feel bad cause I neglected her for a while, but she's more than happy with all of the attention I'm giving her now...

    By the way, what's wrong with your car?

    Overheating, and now, knocking every time I start up the car. When the car starts to heat up, it'll start to knock instead of making the rattling sound it made before. This has severely limited how much I can drive it. >_<
    Can't even drive to the bus stop now... :/

    I got a new car shortly after the issue arose, so my Celica hasn't been getting much love lately... Hopefully, that'll change once I have a little more money. (leaning towards swapping an electric motor in so that I won't have to deal with smog.)
    Still waiting for a shop in SD to give me a quote on these wheels I wanna get for it... It's been 3 weeks and they still haven't gotten back to me. :/ (For some reason, they keep ignoring me online, but when I see them in person, they tell me next week...)
    There is a shop in Ventura that sells the wheels I want for cheap, but for some reason, I can only order by phone...

    We'll see...
    In the meantime, how are you liking the coilovers so far?

    Im in love with the Megans, they're absolutely AMAZING!!! A world of difference for sure. . .

    I recently just got back on the forums but ummm, are you sure you don't have a blown headgasket?

    How's the ride quality? And now that it is lowered is it difficult to drive around especially on driveways? lol
    Love how the car looks and it isn't too low.

    It's definitely not the most practical ride,

    Rides stiff, but handles like on rails (will get aligned and corner balanced)
    Perfecting my driveway angles...

    I guess the most difficult is the mid section of my exhaust where the flex pipe is, that scrapes the most

    Those bars are discontinued. Worse still is that they're for the ST165, not the 162. I'm a Whiteline dealer so I can get you all whatever you want for these cars as long as it is still available.

    I am a Megan Racing dealer as well. Like Cliff said, those suckers will run you about $850.

    Finally got my wheels and tires on. Had to raise it a bit so my exhaust doesn't scrape (Will get new piping to clear, maybe go down to 2" ID)

    Man, I really need a paint job. I hope I get it by May 5th for the All Toyota Fest. . .

    Speaking of which, who here is going? I hope I get to meet a few of you guys there. . .

    holy fuck. i love the fact that you've kept your ride damn clean. nice clean mods, no sticker craziness or other ricer mods. have you given rubbing compound a try? you may still be able to ressurect some shine out of that

    Those wheels make it look like a totally different car altogether.
