Hello,<br><br>Here is the page to my car. It is a show car and all those mods were done last yr for the first time so it is still the baby of my imagination... now I am getting in more customization. If you guys have any creative ideas or links about a better/mo aggressive front body kit, let me know what else I could do to my car. Note: Do not get an extreme kit, it is of poor quality and does not fit the car as it is supposed to.<br><br><a href=http://gibsonfamily.dhs.org:81/camry/antikitsch/ target=new>http://gibsonfamily.dhs.org:81/camry/antikitsch/</a>

Hey nice job! I'm personally not a fan of the Extreme. I've always liked the simplicity of the Molly Designs/TRD body kit. You may want to look at the Black Widow front for your Gen4. How about the R34 front end conversion like the Techna Camry. Ever think of getting a Fiber Images Carbon Fiber Hood? Also...where did you get your turbo kit from? E-mail me if you have questions or comments.<br><br>-Ryan<br>TeamSC3-Founding Member<br>Southern California Camry Club<br>info@...<br><a href=http://www.teamsc3.com target=new>http://www.teamsc3.com</a>

hey,<br><br>i visited your page and saw your interior mods list. i've got a carbon fiber dash kit in my car and a carbon fiber theme with my 98 toyota camry le....i've been looking for a carbon fiber automatic shift knob and e-brake to match my interior...i've been able to find a couple of auto carbon fiber shift knobs but the biggest problem is that darn "overdrive button." my question is (assuming you solved that problem) where can i find the same shift knob you have and e-brake. also if yours doesn't have the O/D then do you know if i could either for-go it or maybe just buy a separate switch to connect to it?...help...thanks for your time and prompt response<br><br>michael

Haha... thank you..making me blush :-) Really I don't think my camry is all that and going to be liked by everybody which I understand because there's a particular style to it (people might say it's overdone etc...). But I have always liked cars and hooking up a Camry is an uncommon challenging project to me. The award-&gt; the uniqueness and speed power! ;-) Thankz for the support.<br><br>Leslie,<br>Toyotrenz-Founder.

Yep I 've been thinkin' about the black widow but still lookin' for maybe better ones. The quality and aggressiveness of the bumper is what I look for. The extreme front bumper is a mess! Since Techna Camry already did it, I would look for another idea... but I do admit I am impressed ! Great work!<br>The carbon fiber hood was $450 but since the color of my car was midnite blue, I thought it was best to leave the hood stock (for car show)until I get my turbo and race the car, then I'll get one for its light weight (for race show).<br>The turbo kit is customed just like my team mate who has a Rav4. The guy JT is the founder of the White TRD Camry 4 cyl. turbocharged... that eventually blew because of abuse :-) JT now owns his shop called Maxx auto work instead of working with TRD.<br>The Rav4 stock was going 21 sec. quarter mile automatic trans and now with its customed turbo charge, it goes hi 14 sec quarter mile... didn't blow yet ;-)<br>Now my car with the turbo charge would go 10 sec. quarter mile. If I get a race car suspension, it would go 9 sec. But because of the high mileage on my car, I need to rebuild the engine 1st and then put the turbo kit. You guys gonna hate me for this but I got my car @ 19 yrs old and got an AUTOMATIC trans (wasn't thinking of hooking it up in 1998/ so much traffic in Seattle).<br><br>Leslie,<br>Toyotrenz-Founder.

I don't think you can go so far to turbo a 5S-FE without doing alot of internal work for it. Examining the Burien Turbo project within our club...and one of our tuners..EL Prototypes, we saw some flaws in the design and choice of parts for that turbo. I give the dude credit because most of our 5S-FE guys were inspired to get that turbo. A Camry has a long way from touching 10seconds in the quarter mile. You should see the 3S-GTE project my friend is doing to his 92 Camry LE that once had a 5S-FE and automatic. EL Prototypes (www.elprototypes.com) will be releasing it soon with a full J-spec Mr2 3S-GTE conversion w/5spd and the first to be powered by the Apex'i Power FC! Here are some of the pics:<br><br><a href=http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4292291283 target=new>http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4292291283</a><br><br>One more thing...would you guys up in the NW be interested in driving to So Cal for an event we are making for Toyota owners from all over? Somewhat like the All Toyota Owners Meets in Nor Cal...but with a larger group and vendor support? We are planning this event in April or possibly in the Summer. e-mail me if you are interested.<br><br>Thanks,<br>Ryan<br>Yahoo!Clubs NewCamryPerformanceSite - Co-Founder<br>TeamSC?-Founding Member<br>www.teamsc3.com <br>info@...

I apologize for being not so clear about the turbo kit but it is a project so there will be chances that it will blow, but I take my chance since my Camry will become my project car and not a daily driven car anymore. Safe driving the 5S-Fe would go 13 sec quarter mile on the Camry. Now that white Camry that JT worked on blew going to 10 sec... My goal is to get his turbokit to go 10 sec. JT can get the turbo to 13 sec w/out any problem... but for higher speed, then problems will be encountered. We are also looking for other alternatives to it in Japan.<br>Don't give me wrong, The Rav 4 is still on an ongoing project. my team mate put $4000 to put the turbo in but now another $2000 is needed to tune it, many mo' parts need to be added etc... But hey... once you get into it, you just want more and more... never done. Street racing, The Rav is kicking great (fast acceleration)! but we want to put it to a new higher level= drag racing where he can maintain a high speed. The Rav 4 earned its credit in the car show already so it's going to get into the drag race scene. Crazy project!! Here's a picture of it:<br><br><a href=http://members.asianavenue.com/mocharacer/hinrav.jpg target=new>http://members.asianavenue.com/mocharacer/hinrav.jpg</a><br><br> We have planned to come down to one of the car show In Cali just for fun this summer so it would be great to know of ur All Toyota event.<br><br>Thank you for ur elaborate info ;-)<br><br>Leslie,<br>Toyotrenz-Founder.

I'm sorry ...But, I have to say bullshit to the 10 sec. ... Please their isnt a Camry that has run anything faster than a 13 sec. right now and I do remember talking to Ray Meeks and he said 14's was the fastest they got before blowin' up the engine ... come on think about it... they was running what 12 to 16 psi of boost on a 5S-FE with a small t3 and your saying they was running 10's... And only making 340hp to the flywheel... Give me a break ... I guess I'm doing all the wrong stuff to my camry to achive 10sec timeslips...<br><br>I'm sorry the most powerfull 5S-FE I know of is from a guy with screen name of TEC2RM he has a MR2 with a 5S-FE turbo charged w/ a T70 turbo and making 494 to the wheels... And his running 11's... so go figure... A camry only running 12 to 16 pounds of boost going faster than him when his boosting 22 to 27 pounds of boost... <br><br>Sorry Can someone raise the B.S. Flag Please...<br>This is why tuner's dont do shit for us camry people cuz 80% of us are sooo gullible...
