celica fanboys can now say they drift! lol


probably soo much fabrication, that it aint a celica anymore

[brndck]

thats kinda what i was thinking, like with the rsr scion tc. but whutev. if u got the $ i guess why not.

[chitownguy]

probably soo much fabrication, that it aint a celica anymore

Then why is it in the D1 Street Legal class? haha

[stiizy]

^^ true that cause in street legal you can not do any swap or change platform...good question!!!!

[brndck]

/\/\/\ wow u guys r right! i didn't even think about that! now i'm REALLY curious.

[Dousan_PG]

could be FF drifter
there are some good ones in japan
when i was at NIKKO there were like 3and they were pretty quick, not couldnt power thru the sweppers or consecutive turns

still entertaining to watch though.

irc the previous doriten had coverage on that car
i forget the mdoel and im toolazy to get up
driven by ...god i forget his name
but he drove a old ass soarer previously. had a td06 20g on it

and a few doritens before had coverage of 'new cars' for drifting.

[Dousan_PG]

edit:

ok its def not FF
hahaha

[stiizy]

^^ after seeing those pix it also can not be in D1 street legal class.. it would be an automatic fail to the techs and judges..D1 itself yes but not SL class

[lflkajfj12123]

thats a supra..

you can tell by the windows but i included the picture for your confirmation

[Dousan_PG]

[Aeroscraper326]

Yeah come on guys, Don't be ignorant.
Look at the bodylines and the front-end.


Wow....

[HyperTek]

well the opening poster's pics werent too clear to make it out, but now i see the roof lines

[worangejuice]

japanese mags rule

[HyperTek]

japanese mags rule
fanboys drool


ahahha

[RiversideS13]

oh yeah the rear side window and the body vents give out it was a supra

[Agamemnon]

I was about ask what happend to the belt line.

[Doriftogasm]

ugh? looks like a supra to me.......

[touge monster]

i love the chaser. sweet cars.

[sylsevilsis]

Man why would he do a celi front conversion?

[Z33dori]

I remember that now.

there was a video that popped up on youtube mid last year with this car w/o paint, and oridio was driving it.

[MikeisNissan]

Man why would he do a celi front conversion?

yeah really..

[HyperTek]

i bet the supra mk4 guys out here are freaking out "Why would you downgrade a supercar supra ?" lol

[Brian]

I'm pretty sure somebody will have a 100% answer to
"why did he put a celica front end on it?"





(sarcasm in case you didnt know)

[[w]hite[r]abbit[x]]

He probably put a celica front end on since it had front end damage and celica parts are easier and cheaper to come by than supra parts.

[IStop4NoMan]

he did it just so he could fool you guys in off topic, duhhhhh

[DOOK]

probably the same reason people with S chassis do front end conversions... to look different.

[Matej]

At first I couldn't find the Celica and thought I was looking at a 350Z.

[stiizy]

wow that really had me i didnt even look at the body lines good call!!

[deadpirate]

the second picture...looks like the new toyota crown. correct me if im wrong. but that what it looks like to me

[lflkajfj12123]

[BlackZenkiS14]

[FRpilot]

[aNskY]

lol i dont think that's made it's way to SF.com yet...

[brndck]

well dang. ya learn something new every day! in the pix i posted i totally couldn't make out the window lines. thanx for the info guys!

[PhAtXSuMo]

edit.. should have read more lmao

[Tearlessj]

lol i dont think that's made it's way to SF.com yet...
It was in the general section a few months ago.

[Pank]

to half the people posting "I could totally tell it was a supra":

no you couldnt, shut the hell up.

also, people in the import scene have been jocking those celica lights forever, only a matter of time before it becomes cool in an "ironic" way

[Tops*]

thats a supra..

By the windows and angle of the pic, it reminds me of an S15 too.

But yeah, above the pic:
Celica-faced Supra wildly runs around the circuit!
"Garuru" Matsui shines at 2nd place with his willpower and pride!!

It's like a friendlier version of Top Secret's V12 Supra.

Wow, It looks so much better in white. In the first few pictures with the red paint and graphics I thought it looked super ugly, but in white I actually really like it, which is weird because I'm not a huge fan of Supras and I hate 7th gen. Celicas

[murderrsirenss]

Man why would he do a celi front conversion?

to make us ask questions like these.
or to just be different

[fliprayzin240sx]

Man why would he do a celi front conversion?

I know why!!! Have you seen the headlights on most MKIV Supras?!?! Theyre headlights look yellower than my Zenki S14 headlights when I got them!!! Sure you can polish the plastic, but why do that when you can put newer headlights that doesnt have the yellow doo-doo stain on it. :naughtyd:

[EDacIouSX]

At first I couldn't find the Celica and thought I was looking at a 350Z.

yea me too lol

[brndck]

if i'd never seen a 7th gen celica i'd say this looked damn good as an update for the mkIV

[Tearlessj]

I've been on Supraforums since I was 12. I have only seen maybe less then a dozen supras on there with doo-doo headlights. The people on there are too baller for that. lol

[HyperTek]

i kinda like the white one, but not the front bumper soo much, maybe if the front bumper wasnt 100% celica inspired,.. but the celica headlights on supra might be decent

[kyoru]

the white one is hot if they covered the middle grill. they should bring back the celica supra name back like this haha!

[MikeisNissan]

i actually really like the white one!

[aNskY]

the squareness of the celica doesnt flow at all with the roundness of the mkiv

[DP-AE86]

woah...
what in the world?
that is so weird!

[po12nh d]

eww celica front on supra?!
don't you guys think that the new 370z head lights looks similar to the celica too?

[woodchuck]

[/dohtml]

i may be going out on a limb here but:

IF Toyota never made that generation Celica then i think this concoction would have worked as a redesign of the early 2k supra before it was discontinued.

[lflkajfj12123]

and also, anyone have info on the infiniti in this ad? has a goodyear banner across the hood and looks sick as fuck.

[Sil80Dreams]

Am I the only one that thinks the white one looks like a riced out GTR in the front?

Also, I kinda like it. I hate on supras daily, and I like it. FTW

[s13 @ fullboost]

he put a Celica front to be cool dude I mean come on all the cool kids are doing it RSR TC And the DC sports Integra well they couldn't afford to really do all the fab work and just did the front end ... and yes I am totally be sarcastic fwd was not made to Drift. =]
