Scissor doors on a 6 gen celica? - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #2704 9 posts Started by Makaveddie
I was browsing ebay the other day, and I came accross this CD that claims to give directions on how to make your doors open like lamborghini doors (scissor doors) for $700 (obviously low-balling a tad). Has any one looked into pulling this off on their 6gc? Is it even possible? Ed.
My car should be in the shop soon. Ive been delaying it lately so i hope it will be done in the next month.
BTW, mines going to be custom done. My quote was around 1100.
before you guys go droppin a grand + on sisccor doors think about this.. all that is needed to do that conversion is a 200lbs psi gas shock and a new hinge that you can have custom fabbed at NE machine shop... totat cost??? ---> Maybe 100$ per door and thats if you get ripped off.

that conversion is VERY easy to do.. just use common sense....

BTW you guys gotta see what I'm gonna do with the trunk lid.... >biggrin.gif>

Sense it is a easy thing and i know that everyone of us would be willing to pay 200 dollars for those doors then make a how- to on it.
I put a link on one of these topics that was kind of a how to... think the topic was called gullwing door conversion or something.... go to yahoo and type in "door conversions" and a buncha pages should come up.. just look through that stuff you should be able to figure it out. I would do a write up but not sure yet what I am gonna do with my doors.. thinkin scissor doors but in a year or 2 everyone is gonna have them - kinda thinkin about a reversed scissor door

That's SoundSlut_dotcom's car, which I think is very, very nice. He said that his car is getting the door panels modified to fit back on, because he said that part of them would hit when the doors came down.

New Toyota project coming soon...

and if you go here is where you can get them.. but they want like 6-700 for them, but they got a cool little video you can watch of the door opening. if you scroll down on that page they give instructions on how it install it

damn if you really start to look into the site some of there kits are pretty cheap! theres one for around 200 bucks

I'll post more links when I find them
