Updates ... Upgrades..

Well, since my truck is still down due to SK Speed taking forever with the machining of the parts for my motor, the Celica is still my daily driver.

Project Daily Awesome.

If I haven't introduced you to the car, here it is.

1984 Celica GT
Gold with a brown interior.
60K miles.

Runs decent, its has a misfire & the heat sucks balls.

So far the Celica has been good to me
It has a new water pump. ( 3 month long fiasco due to my complete retardation)
85 Cressida Technics radio & Pioneer Rear speakers


And today it gets a lighting upgrade.

Since this car was built in the 80s the lighting sucks, by that I really mean its atrocious.
In certain conditions, you cant see shit at night & my poor night vision doesnt help anything either.

I had some H4 bulbs made by Philips. They're the Motovision models , if you couldn't guess...
They're for motorcycles, with a pretty unique beam pattern.
I had these in the Corolla before I upgraded to HIDS & I loved them











By accident I found some H4 housings on craigslist a week ago
Fluted dlass lens, some guy brought them back from japan a while ago and had been sitting on them.

$25 managed to put them into my hands.

Next up for lighting will be some Fog lamps.
Not for the fog in NY , but more to look cool :D lol

Im installing them as we speak & cannot wait for tonight to test these out.
