And you have never been pulled over for it. My luck I would have been.

I did order some LEDs yesterday, some interior & other misc. bulbs.

Also ordered a new fob case & new remote (as an extra).

So we'll see how all that goes.

Do a 3rd brake delete and no one will ever even know... except for us...

Maybe '94-95 is 921 but '96-99 is 1156 for some reason? Wouldn't be the first time something small like that was changed within a generation of a car and then never properly documented. I want to swear mine were 921 in the third light because I replaced all the bulbs on my Celica at one point so then I'd know they were all fresh.

You inspired me to fix my 3rd brake light. Haven’t seen it lit up in years. Definitely took an 1156 bulb for my ‘98. Interesting that Toyota would change that when so much of the car stayed the same through the years.

yes, you're right. The 3s is going in his truck and the 5.9 Cummins into the celi.

Actually Cummins has a crate engine program. Expensive but worth it.

So back on October 6th w/ about 171,114miles;

I changed the oil, resealed the oil pan (hoping that solves a leak I was getting) & re-did an axle seal on the passenger side (must have installed the last one crooked or something when I did the clutch).

The whole project took way to long, most of the day in fact.

Here are some pictures of the oil pan & stuff...



Really surprised that I could still see some of the cross-hatches on the cylinder wall (at least on this viewable portion).








I have yet to do a good verification if said work fixed the leaks but whatevers. Sorry, not sorry on the procrastination.

Ummm... waiting for your Beams to have low compression so I can use some of it for parts.














See what I did there? LOL

How long have you let your car sit/ in storage before starting/ driving it again?

Been about a month for me. Had a wet few days so hopefully it washed the salt off the roads. So I couldn't resist... feels good.

Then again you have vehicles that are more likely fun to drive.

Sometimes I just surprise myself when I get them buttery smooth shifts, like... "Nailed it!"

So... I drove the Celica today, first time since like early February. Of course the battery was dead, so I put the trickle on for a minute & it fired right up.

Was also nice not to have any leaks on the garage floor. Hopefully it stays that way.

A little late but...

A fellow member on here had some JDM tails for sale, so I picked them up. I was a little hesitant but in person they look great & they bring the car up to date, like from a mid-90s Toyota to an early 2000s Toyota. I also like more of the amber turn signal. Here is a question what have yous done with the extra bulb socket from the USDM harness so it doesn't get water/ short out? Was just thinking of cutting the socket off & heat shrinking to prevent anything bad happening.

Before...


After...


Added an LED 3 brake light bulb...


I had also pick up some yellow fog light bulbs & installed them in some new/ used non-broken housings. No pics but yellow fogs equals all the coolness.

Last year when I put the new clutch in I had left off the splash shields because there was some leaks I knew I want to fix. Now that those are taken care of (I hope), I FINALLY put them back on & now have all the aerodynamics.


I believe that's all for now.

Went to the Mid-West Meet & Chee(& his S.O.) had taken some pictures.

If you're concerned about water I'd just use a balloon over the socket and cable tie it into place, that way not having to cut into wiring and having to seal those off individually.
