I am Putting my custom 1st gen Celica out there for sale. Its a very nice little car and has had a lot of work put into it. Below is a list of modifications. Engine and Trans: Fuel injected 4.0 Alluminum V8 from a 1992 Lexus SC400. Engine has All new gaskets, new starter, and fresh red powdercoating. Custom built wire harness and fuse block with all refernce material provided. Rebuilt Lexus 4 speed Auto trans converted to slip yoke tail shaft, W/ 2600 stall converter, 1969 Camaro auto shifter. Aluminum radiator with Flex-a-lite electric fan. All new fuel system, Braided AN lines, Billet fuel filter, MSD fuel injection pump, Poly fuel cell mounted under rear of car. Exhasut is 2' primary factory headers with Stainless magnaflow Y collector into 3" all the way back to Greddy Ti Muffler. Engine is equipped with the original Lexus A/C compressor, and the celica originally came with A/C, so all or the major components are there to make the A/C work, but it is missing the A/C hoses, and the condensor. Has remote mounted oil filter kit with upgraded high pressure oil hoses. Ask if there is anything else you have questions about. Rear Differential: Chevy 12 bolt originally from a 1972 Chevelle. Heavily built up, Moser axles W/ long studs, Olds big bearing ends/C-clip eliminators, Mark Williams spool, Richmond 4.56 Pro gears, Aluminum rear cover. Note: The gears are noisy, I would switch them out for street gears if car was to be driven frequently. Still running Drum brakes. Has custom driveshaft with toyota front u-joint and chevy rear u-joint. Suspension and Steering: Front short stroked coil over AE86 struts with new KYB inserts, cut rear springs. AE86 front subframe conversion with Power Rack & Pinion steering (New Reman Rack and new custom high pressure line with AN fittings). Has Negative camber roll center adjusters in front to compensate for the vehicle being lowered. The front camber is -3 degrees. It could be changed back to a normal camber spec if you wished to do so by changing to a standard roll center adjuster. But honestly the negative camber fits this car very well. I had the front AE86 Corolla hubs re-drilled to 5 lug pattern, it works for now, but I would plan on doing the Aerospace components 5 lug prostreet brake kit. It would offer better performance and flare. Body and paint: Fresh Paint, Frost Lime Green from 1969 Camaro. Shaved parking lights, shaved gas door, shaved USDM rear bumper holes, shaved side vents, shaved oem mirror mounts, fitted with sport mirrors. All new front, rear, and side window seals installed during the paint process, so no need to worry about paint bubbling up around tape lines and such. it was done correctly. The car has been fitted with Australian market all steel Front and rear bumpers. The front bumper has been painted a couple times and is currently gloss black, looks nice, does not have any rust issues. Has the original Australian market front bumper steel filler panels, and bumper brackets and lights. The rear bumper is original chrome, but has been damaged/repaired in the past. it has a lot of dings. It fits the body lines fine, but would need to be refurbished to be up to par with the rest of the car. Interior: OMP racing seat. Custom Sparco quick release steering hub and sport wheel. All other interior is original and about a 5/10, it looks ok, but could use redoing. The original dashpad was badly cracked. It was removed and a dashcap put in its place. I still have the original dashcap and it will come with the car. Wheels: Immaculate vintage Appliance Dia-Mags circa 1977. I took these out of the original packaging myself and they are perfect. 15x7 front, 15x8.5 rear. Nice Falken tires in rear. Could use new front tires though, they were used when I put them on, and they are not great. They cause a shake at freeway speeds. The shake was not there before putting those tires on. Although this car is not 100% restored yet, it is very presentable and it shows well at the local car show. It gets a lot of attention and makes a great conversation piece. I have put a lot of work into this car and its a lot of fun. Its actually quite popular in the 1st Gen Celica community. Theres not many V8 Celicas out there, here's your chance to have one at an excellent price. Please email me if you have any questions at all. The car is Located in Charleston, South Carolina and I have a clean title in hand. It is still on an Arizona Title as I just recently moved to South Carolina. Here is a short video clip on youtube of the car driving. http://youtu.be/S7sUaj8b6CA This video is to show that the car is fully drivable and to also give some insight into the rear end whine that can be heard in the beginning of the video. Thanks for looking.

Toyota develops new pre-collision system with steering assist
Sun, 13 Oct 2013A number of automakers are working on developing fully autonomous cars, but it looks like the groundwork for such technologies will likely show up first as semi-autonomous systems for both safety and convenience. Following recent announcements from Nissan and Ford in this area, Toyota has now released information for some of its advanced semi-autonomous technologies that could be offered in production cars over the next few years.
On the safety front, Toyota's new pre-collision system with pedestrian-avoidance steering assist is aimed at protecting the folks who aren't in the car. This system combines visual and audible alerts with automatic brake assist and automatic steering. If warnings don't get the driver to slow down, the brake assist kicks in if a collision is very likely, but if that is still not able to avoid the impending collision (and if there is enough room to do so), the car can automatically steer itself around the pedestrian. This sounds most beneficial for last-second dangers such as a person accidently stepping out into the road in front of a car. Toyota hopes to have this technology available to customers by 2015.
The Japanese automaker is also testing a suite of technologies called Automated Highway Driving Assist (AHDA). The key part of this is a new adaptive cruise control system that uses vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications rather than a radar-based system. This cooperative-adaptive cruise control allows vehicles to communicate their acceleration and deceleration data with other cars, which Toyota says this helps to improve fuel efficiency and traffic flow. Also a part of AHDA is the Lane Trace Control feature, which sounds like a next-gen lane keep assist. This system uses cameras, radar and a computer to keep the vehicle in a "smooth driving line" by being able to change steering angle, engine torque and braking force. Toyota says this technology could be in place by the "mid-2010s."
Spongebob Squarepants Toyota Highlander gets Tanked in Vegas
Thu, 07 Nov 2013In 2006, I bought a Scion xB (the super upright, first-generation one), and I always had this wild dream of turning the xBox into an aquarium after it had run its course in my personal test fleet. Long story short, that never happened. But apparently the folks at Toyota got wind of my idea - only, well, this isn't exactly what I had in mind.
Let's just start at the beginning here. This is a 2014 Toyota Highlander - you know, the redesigned one that bowed in New York earlier this year. I haven't driven it yet, but I'm sure it's plenty nice and will appeal to all sorts of families. Families with kids. Kids who like cartoons. Cartoons like Spongebob Squarepants.
Which brings me to our next talking point: the collaboration between Toyota and Nickelodeon for the Spongebob-themed wrap that covers every inch of this Highlander. This isn't the first time we've seen the yellow cartoon sponge on a Highlander - Toyota unveiled a differently wrapped version earlier this year - but this one features more of an aquatic, under-the-sea sort of theme. Perfect, considering the main point of this crossover's reason for being at SEMA.
