My Pimpin' Celsior

This is my ride (which is still under construction). Briefly, it is an '89 Celsior VIP, leather interior, electric everything including rear seats, 19" Work rims, 255 x 35 front and 285 x 35 rears, airbag suspension with a/market controller to slam it. hehehe
Have fitted 4pot Supra front brakes, Terra Supercharger, removed all the interior woodgrain and replaced with Carbon Fibre. Monday it goes in for an Audio upgrade using existing equipment (want to retain the stock look)but replacing all door speakers with Alpine SPS 170's and driven by an Alpine MRPF 4ch amp. Rear sub is again Alpine SWS 10-22 10", mounted in rear parcel shelf and driven by Alpine MRPM 330 amp.
Car is basically stock on the outside so I could get thru compliance and registration, but I have a wide body kit coming from Japan in the next couple of months. Kit is a Visage and is "fully sick Habib". Will post more as the work gets done.

Hey Dimmy,
Car cost me around $10k, wheels $6k, Stereo $2k, Supercharger, kit $7k, various other bits to keep it lookin' nice around $3k. Insurance thru Shannons (rating 1 for life) $850.00.
No horsepower figures yet as timing belt has been put on 1-2 teeth out so it is retarded (bit like the car's owner), but aiming for around 200rwKw.
Will keep you posted when I get it all sorted.
Vern
