Show Me That 5S-FE!!!

[N35QU!K]

I remember a couple of months ago someone made a thread for the V6 family, and I figured its time the 5S-FEs of TN shine (not mine though xD). Show me that 5S-FE!

That's a couple weeks old...before I took that blue hose off the intake that went nowhere and added the little breather filter. But yeah, that's basically it, haha.

I love my car.

EDIT: OP, where'd you get your pipe? Mine is huge and pretty much kills my low end torque...and doesn't sound amazing either. Thanks ebay!

2001 Toyota Camry Modified

I've done a lot to the car. I don't have time right this second to go over it, but if you're interested, let me know.

This is before I installed my new alarm, and got the Optoma Red-top (and before I changed the clutch to a State 1)

3 videos of my 2001 Camry Modified, along with a list of upgrades:

2) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzFcsr-km8o

3) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32pxwH77uR4

I did all the modifications myself, except the lambo door hinges and the exhaust (welding was required).

• Flowmaster S40 exhaust (one of two things I needed help installing)
• NGK Iridium plugs
• Cross drilled rotors
• Ceramic brake pads
• Strut bar
• Stage 1 clutch (5-speed manual)
• Halo headlights
• Clear corner lights
• Altezza rear lights
• High performance tint (20% back, and all four doors, 30% whole front windshield)
• Green LED underbody kit (with remote)
• CrimeStoppers RF (radio frequency) Alarm system
• Phase Linear DVD head unit
• A-Pillar gague: oil pressure (still have to figure out how to get this to work)
• A-Pillar gague: voltmeter
• 2 rear neons with strobes (connected to switches)
• Aftermarket foglights
• VIS Carbon racing hood
• Green LED washer nozzles
• Light bars (green LED) behind carbon grill, and in front of main grill
• Custom made cold air intake (Injen tubes + K&N cone filter).
• Lambo doors (one of two things I needed help installing)
• 8000k HID lights (2 for low beams, 2 for high beams)
• Radar/laser detector
• Dual blade windshield wipers
• Optima Red-top
• K&N Oil filter

...it's a work in progress...

Next set of upgrades (hopefully)
• Lowering springs
• Front & rear sway bars
• 18" wheels
• Maybe a high-flow cat
• I might replace the headers

Big project attempt: Turbocharge this 5S-FE (that'd take a lot of time, money, patience, and know-how)

I know it needs some cleaning.

The box to the left? I think it's the cruise control.

It looks like ONE_to_HATE uses a protectant spray to clean and make everything shiny. I just wipe down whatever I can get to with a dry rag whenever I have the hood up. I wouldn't call mine beautiful, but thanks!
