>hatch keyhole still functional??


I've wondered that as well.. I'm sure all that has to be done is relocate the lock mechanism from where it was at to the backside of the tail light, whigh might even be in a similar place on the car.

Looking good! I can't wait to see the finished product. Those skirts you have are perfect for this car.

well yes the key hole will be relocated but im gonna put a fake one an hide the actual one some where within the body i was thinking either inside the fuel door or somewhere hidden under the fender well maybe just thinkin out loud someone broke into my cougar a cupple weeks ago but couldnt get to the goodies in the trunk becuse i did this
the fake key whole worked well i was thinking of doing a celica front end conversion as one of my mad scientist projects then it would be a cougica lol wut yal think of my cougar sorry off topic

I honestly think it would look like the new Tiburon to an extent, the headlights with our body styling....... so no go, because you'd be a "crooked H" wannabe.
lol ok it was a bad joke lol i know but a joke none the less ok pepo im waiting to get more moneys to finish conversion so many bills sigh bare with me pepo i will be posting hopefully the fiished conversion this month october or december ill keep you all updated on wut i do
im working on making a rear air defuser and i think i might have to go get that 3sgte engine sooner than i thght ive a feeling ive got some cam issues im not willing to pore more money into this st engine so im gnna get the 3sgte soon so this might be taking longer than i thought on the conversion maybe but by the end of dec i should be done body wise

You might have to customize something for the rear fender tail light section...if not mold on the Supra rear fender section.
yeah the only problem with that is no supra to mold but its by no means done just trying to get the shaping an fabricating done then im gonna go back to finishing the actual tail light section for now it will do until i go back to it and its not an absolute must but it helps to have a supra rear so you have something to work with and it makes it much easier not having to start from scatch but thats where the fun starts though
that rear end conversion is sweet. how much that setting you back. real nice addition:D
Hey man, love how its coming along,, i would like to make 1 suggestion u may consider since ur going for the supra look... fender flares molded to the body with raiser blocks molded for ur wing.. imo would look sick !!! LOOKS GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gotta say I'm impressed, every other Supra light conversion has looked horrible but this is spot on.

ok pepo sorry for the absense lately but this project has taken on a life of its own ive now decided to throw a modified 350z front veilside kit on this car you all said the front wasnt up to par with the rear so ive decided to bring it up to par but this decision will probrobly cause me to fully change the rear completly if i dont think it matches up with the front this was the picture that got the sparks going in my head




but im moving before the end of december so there will be few to no updates until then let me know wut your feedback is on this as i think it does matter but keep in mind i have three of these cars this is by no meens the traditional look im going for something you dont see or find anywhere else as ive grown board with looking at my stock gt4 an regular celica gt just to get the comments going and yes i will be keeping the stock headlights on this car where they are (later upgrading to projectors) this being said let me know wut you guys think laters i will be checking on this post frequently to answer questions so keep em comming

thumbsdown.gif

But that's just my opinion since I'd rather keep a Celica's exterior OEM...besides the fact that you have Supra tails, of course. But keep us updated. smile.gif

The back is great, but I'm VERY lost on your new front bumper decision. You're putting on a bumper that has cornered headlight holes and a bump in the center that covers your brights. Now I'm sure you're going to do some magic on this and prove me wrong, but I'm not really understanding where you're taking this.
if you make this work im going to shake your hand
Interesting choice on the front bumper..... I this will look much better than the front end you had on there, if done correctly. I can't wait to see the work.

if you are doing a supra rear and 7gc front, it already appeared in option 2 mag, if you want it for reference.

i'd pass on that, i love what you did to the rear and would do it to mine in a heart beat but i think the lines of that bummper are all wrong for the celica my self...

You're here for a good time, not a long time. - Colin McRaeWhen in doubt... Flat out! - Colin McRaeUndersteer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car.Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall.Torque is how far you take the wall with you....
well i know alot of pepo said the sme thing about the rear too that it looked horrible an they hated it especially some of the guys from the car meets out in sa with nothing better to do just give me some time im gonna make this work th kit is gonna be severly modded andwill look nothing ...or completly different than the one in the pic its just gonna be the template fror the front im building ive gotten lazy i dont feel like building from scratch this time i built the front thats on there now from picts off the net i think it came out ok but my tastes have changed plus this front is only running me two hundred with shiping from vis im gonna mold the the fender flares into it as well somehow just gotta raise the money im up to one hundred after tomarrow im doing some minor bodywork to a cupple cars at a freinds dealership
The car pictured is a 7gc...just wondering where the 350z inspiration came from.

1999 Celica GT
lol i was looking for something i liked on a car and this front was something i liked... my roommate has a 350z and i was thinking this is also gonna be my next car as well. notto mention my roomate is obsessed with tokyo drift and the cars from it and this happends to be the veil side kit from the movie... i also took a bet with a freind... dosent believe that its possible to do this and is always talking sheet about our cars and comparing his mercedez to them he loved it when i told him it didnt matter his car stil looked an drove like crap. hahaha basically hes one of those guys that says that if they cant do it no one can type of thing so its strictley to shut him up and take his car and money/he included his car in the bet lol im gonna take it and sell it for five dollars laugh.gif celica is one of my favorite cars hands down anyways so next after the body is finished in like 5 or 6 months 3sgte rebuilt and boosted to a twentyfour psi just like my other one... yay im gonna paint it candy apple red and call it the cu cuay lol
