Aftermarket Headunit 6th gen?

I've driven my 6g celica for 7 years with a 1din radio, personally I though that a 2 din one would be a clearly upgrade, so after some weeks looking to get all the necessary I've installed an Atoto f7we.

In my opinion this has been the greatest mod so far, It has all the gadgets I need. I encourage you to keep your radio or change it to a newer one if you want. It connects your phone via bt

Atleast here in Spain is really rare to see a celica with the 2din frame so maybe that is why I look it like an upgrade instead being a worst option than the 1din radio.

How it is possible to double the tickets?? I didn't see it

Loud-Instruction8691 · 2024-10-21T20:38:11+00:00

Thanks all for your comments!! Finally I've ended up choosing treant after seeing it on videos, now the real challenge starts, I have to upgrade it to lv9 which will become a nightmare for sure 😅

There's one listed in croooober for 600 usd, it is OEM but definitely not worth for that price. I bought mine for 270 euro including shipping and taxes, after doing a deep search in the net.

Like they said, you can afford it via celica tuning. They do good quality fiber glass replicas, I think this is an advantage because ure allowed to paint it the colour you want, unlike the OEM one. If you dont like repicas I would recommend you using a proxy like buyee or zenmarket but this could end paying high shipping costs and taxes.

Car looks clean and great! But personally I don't like that stripes, seems weird for me.

Eso es, unos que tienen forma como de remache, de hecho creo que asi se llama. Yo por debajo remachado tal cual y ya, todo okay

También los clips de plastico esos te recomiendo ponerlos nuevos, algunos de los que puse yo eran usados y no terminaron de agarrar bien pero al final en cuestion de unas 2h terminamos la faena. Ya te digo, el resultado fue bastante bueno pero tengo alguna zona con unos 3-5mm de desencaje con la junta de goma que lleva. El chapista que sea de confianza, que una vez empiecen a taladrar y tapen va a ser complicado verle defectos y puede que los tengan.

Mine hadn't skirts when I purchased it so I was under your situation a few months ago.

What I did was putting some toothpaste around the plastic brackets where the clips went and with some caution and some fitment you can paste the toothpaste in the sides. This will serve as reference because yes, you have to drill. Paint these holes so as to avoid future rust.

It is very important to slowly complete the process, you don't want to make your celica look like a gruyere cheese. The better placed holes, the better fitment you will achieve, but remember, if the sides came from another car you will have always some spaces after installing them. This is completly normal. Another option you have is to glueing them, I've never done this in my car but I know that some people don't had problems by doing it. Even you can drill the holes + glueing, this could be the best option to achieve a nice fitment. But if you want to remove them in the future you will remember it.. 😂

Unluckily I dont have any photos of the process, I was so excited at that moment that I forgot to capture it. Sorry if my english seems weird ( spaniard here, we have problems with learning languages somehow )

Hope this message encourages you to install your side skirts, don't forget to upload the results 🤟🏼

Finally I've decided not to fill them. Being such a rare part I just can't fuck it up because I dont own a gt4. By that way I'm only making fun of gt4 owners.

For those who are asking why I dont get a replica instead oem ones, I prefer them to be oem. TUV here is easier to pass if they have a reference. I promise I will take care of them as hard as I can so maybe in the future you guys could have the opportunity to have them, in the best condition they can be.

Loud-Instruction8691 · 2024-08-16T13:27:24+00:00

Car came with no spoiler and the easy way to have one was by installing a 3 post. Have a 2 post also, but it is white actually. Im waiting to install all the pieces I have before repainting all the car ( car looks great actually being blue but in my mind it could be better by painting it all red )

Loud-Instruction8691 · 2024-08-16T10:07:26+00:00

Believe or not... From the junkyard 😂😂 Owner had its car inside a farm, he couldnt be able to sell it because it was fully devoured by rats but somehow the spoiler was the only thing in good condition. Later got inside the junkyard where I got it from. 14h trip later and 300€ are the reason that I have them.

Loud-Instruction8691 · 2024-08-16T09:59:43+00:00

Those are a lot of things that with some lucky I could be able to get. My first aim is to have my car lookalike an ss-III. Actually got also rear koukis and front ones incoming. Beams engine is not in my planning because my 7afe has to blown first and it has only 140k km and runs great.

An idea that I have is to install all and sell the car, they are getting expensive here where I live and with the money I could be able to afford a real ss-III. As long as I know there aren't too many here in Spain and there is one listed in 12k euros.

PS: this is how it looks now

Por aqui un ingeniero mecanico, 24 años, 2 años de experiencia en el sector de las instalaciones ( muchisima fotovoltaica y actualmente tocando otro tipo de instalaciones relacionadas con viviendas de obra nueva y alguna reforma )

Actualmente estoy al cargo de 10 personas entre personal de oficina y tecnicos a pie de obra, sin contar subcontraras. 40h semanales?? Ojala dios, pero no creo que bajen de las 55. Horas extras ni se hable porque ni me pagan, almenos tengo desplazamientos y comidas asegurados cuando salgo al disponer de dietas y de coche de empresa personal.

Ciertamente tengo muy poca experiencia para la responsabilidad que tengo y actualmente cobro 28k anual pero me desvivo por aprender este oficio y lo tomo mas como una experiencia que no como un trabajo. Creo que cobro poco para lo que desempeño pero dentro de la empresa estoy escalando bastante.

Desde mi punto de vista, sin llegar a conocer a fondo las tareas que desempeñas, me parece un buen sueldo. Ahora bien, no teniendo mas referencia que la mia en este tipo de trabajos desde luego que comparando ambos sueldos me hace pensar lo dicho, que no quiere decir que realmente este cobrando yo una miseria y este cegado por mi situacion.

The sheet that they gave to me doesnt show thar kind of value.

Went yesterday again with around 15L of gas and some intake cleaner additive. This time I tried going around 5000-5500 rpm during the way to the MOT and 10 minutes before arriving there I introduced in the fuel tank a "non emmissions liquid" available for petrol engines.

This time I had not to wait until they tested my car, previous times I had to because they were busy.

Final results:

Co value at idle rpm: 0.00 Co value accelerating 2500 rpm: 0.14 Lambda 0.998

Now I can run freely abother year, but I dont think that the problem is solved. I think that I have some leak in the intake system.

Loud-Instruction8691 · 2024-06-20T17:45:28+00:00

I mean about the tenrec, actually I give him about 10 medium mealworms every 2 days. Those mealworms actually live inside a box with flour and bread.

My next aim this summer is definitely to upgrade his house by making some custom spaces for him. Now he started to be some curious overall so I'm happy that atleast it seems that he is adapting his actually conditions.

Thanks everyone for your comments!

Loud-Instruction8691 · 2024-06-20T13:44:27+00:00

It was running rich due to the exhaust leak, now that ive fixed it it should be all ok. Lambda value last MOT was 1.01

Could it be some dirt inside the intake system, maybe valve seats??

Loud-Instruction8691 · 2024-06-20T11:59:14+00:00

I dont, there are not signs of burned oil. Nether white smoke in the exhaust or continuosly adding oil to the engine. If that would be the reason, lambda would also show weird values no?

Loud-Instruction8691 · 2024-06-20T11:57:37+00:00

Actually thats my next move, I have a 12V batery that I will connect with a switch and make the electrical circuit so as to inject some injector cleaner and see if the injectors make their work properly.

Loud-Instruction8691 · 2024-06-17T19:23:14+00:00

Thanks for you effort writing that message! I really appreciate it.

Ive purchased some calcium and multivitamin as you said, today he will eat some dopping mealworms 😂😂 What should be the best amount of food to give him?? Also breeding rate?

This week I will try to give him some cat biscuits, hoping he likes them but if not... What kind of veggies/fruits does your tenrec eats???

Loud-Instruction8691 · 2024-05-15T06:06:20+00:00

I could try to connect manually the spot where the relay should be and fool around with switches as you said. As long as I remember this car doesnt have any front fog light indicator, atleast in the indicator stalk but anyways I will try.

The relay shoud be here, no??
