new guy
i used to drive a 1990 celica alltrac, but sold her because it was turning into a huge money pit. i'm new to civics, so hopefully i'll learn a lot here. here are some pics, peace.

Rep Power: 0 i don't plan to do too much. right now i have a skunk2 shift **** sitting in the box and i ordered a dc sports shift adaptor, but it's backordered. i'll probably order some OEM side skirts this week. i've been looking for front lips, but i don't know which ones will fit or where i can find pics of 05's with them, any suggestions?

Rep Power: 0 the new celica's are weak, plain and simple. my buddy has one that's pretty modded and i walked him so easily in my alltrac. granted i had a decent amount of stuff done to my alltrac, but i just don't think the new celica's are that great, looks-wise or performance-wise. an rsx type s kills it.

i have the revo on my 04 and its awesome. i think its way better than any adapter on the market. go with the revo. nice celica dude. i may sound like a complete noob but is that a turbocharger? its the biggest dam turbocharger i've ever seen if it is. looks kinda like a supercharger though? what all did you have on the celica and what kind of numbers were you running?

i never took it to the dyno, but last time at the track i was running high 13's on a slipping clutch and crappy stock tires. that was at 12 psi, stock is roughly 8. if i had a good clutch and tires and turned up the boost, definitely low 13's...

Rep Power: 357 getting an adapter over the whole assembly is like getting a muffler over a cat-back. pay a little more to get a better product.
