1st & 2nd Generation (1983–1986 & 1987-1991)Toyota Camry Discussion for years: 1983-1986 & 1987-1991.
Topics of discussion range from fuel economy, safety, modifications, performance all involving America's favorite family car, the Toyota Camry.
This is my 1st car and I've had it for about 6 months and in the mean time I have put alot of time and money into it and this is my end product. It still runs strong with 360km's on it (gotta love em) . So I'm putting these pics up to share with my fellow camry lovers and please tell me what you all think of it.
Are you allowed to display P-plates from the inside? Lucky.
Did you get that exhaust from ebay? Do you have a vid of start-up?

We can display them on the inside, but I think QLD rules are getting like NSW and we have to put them on the outside soon.. And the exhaust i got from auto pro for like $70 (it was their last one ) and i can do a vid of start up the afternoon..

What are the crazy gov'ts thinking? Seriously, get mine taken occasionally(or fly off ) and they probably spend more money making those damn plastic plates than they do catching people without plates (because they can't be stuff to put them on outside the car everytime they go for a drive).
Did you do the sound system yourself? Looks pretty damn schmick. Do your windows roll all the way down having 6" in the door?

yeh i know i had plastic P plates on my rego plate and they flew off on highways, then i went for magnetic plates and same thing haha.. As for the sound system its all custom and if i did it, it wouldnt work lol, the windows come all the way down we just took off the side compartment thing and put speakers there instead and it goes pretty hard it got rated at a sound off thumping 137.3Db And this is the vidoe of my cars exhaust
Might I Also Agree.. Chris.. that looks very very good i wish i could afford rims and a paint job... I do have two questions... where did u get that TRD badge i love it... and how much did it cost for your front speaker enclosures? are they fiberglass? because the stock 4" just dont do it.... but over here in the US mine isnt lookin too bad either. So I Took Some Current Pictures And A Video For All You 2nd Gen Camry Lovers...
PS. This Past Weekend. I Went To A Local Import Show And There Was Spectator Arm Drop Drag Races.. (Thats Why There Is Numbers On My Car) And I Beat A 2001 Honda Civic 4dr with my camry that has 264,000 miles on it (424,866 Km) And Those Are On The Original Motor!!!!
Here Are Some Picutres Of My Camry....
This Is Of My Exhaust Start Up And Revving. ( The Rattle Noise Is A Pebble Somehow Got Into The Muffler.. )

The TRD badges I got off ebay for cheap which is always good when it comes to cars the door pods are custom made, just like my rear dash they were done with the same principal.. ply wood, some puttish substance and something else for the doors i paid $200 without speakers,
P.S. I've seen ur car on here before and i sorta got my insperation to pain my engine from you, so thanks for that. Also have you done any performance mods to ur camry, im thinking of it but i not sure what to do?
