Re: 00 SC2 revive

damn man you got a lot ahead of you haha. And one thing to watch out for is a bunch of people had trouble with the obx hoses leaking so hopefully you get ones that don't.

Re: 00 SC2 revive

Yeah, I had sold off the extars i never got a chance to install and some of the stuff I did but just couldnt sell the car. I mean I could have, but I actually wasnt able to convince myself to put her for sale haha.

Re: 00 SC2 revive

OK so the lsit is getting shorter, fixed the mirror, interior fan, battery tie down and have calipers ready for mounting, getting some new pads and brake fluid tomorrow then mounting them. Also changed out all the fluids/filters. Still waiting on the short shifter to get here then shes ready for a test drive to see what condition the clutch is in. Almost have everything I need to replace the exhaust and picking up the progress springs when they are in.

Hey, I noticed that in the picture you don't have the reflector the full length of the trunk like it comes. Did you do this yourself or do they sell aftermarket trunks that fit these?

Panted it myself.

They will be just sitting around once I pick up the progress springs. They are pretty beaten up though but I'll post a pic once they are out.

If you mean the reverse lights, its 2 layers of vinyl I cut and laid over it. And the spoiler is from a celica GT 00-05 if I remember correctly.
