Infamous Celica

[cuttyman9]

St184 GT build


What started as a normal 400 dollar commuter turned into a full blown project, forum and facebook group.
I had always had certain imports I wanted but in a muscle car family they never made much sense, smog, low production on good trim levels etc so I never bought one.
This car definitely grew on me, it bothered me a lot that it was a toyota because toyota at the time was beyond lame offering the Toyota Highlander hybrid as their fastest vehicle (LOL truth!)

It started with a subwoofer I got for free and some lowering springs.
All shit broke loose after that.

Why a volvo electric pump instead of one from an mr2? I was reading into that earlier.

rttereve I plan to use the Volvo one because it's 100 vs 250ish.
Same wiring principal but cheaper by a lot.
