My brother just traded cars with me and I got his 92 Celica, Well I really like the little car, but had a couple questions, is there anyway to put HID's on this car and where can I pick up some clear corner lights for the front I hate amber lights lol. And whats a good non ricey Intake. Thanks

No intake is non ricey, on Toyotas all they do is add sound. The factory intake is fine for performance just strip the silencers off it.

I know all the do is add sound, I guess my real question with it was...whats the best sounding one, no twang no crappy sounding cheap stuff I have an Injen CAI on the Scion TC that I just had to give to my brother sounded great basically looking for the same kind of thing

get what u said a name brand muffler and have ur pipes mandrel bend from the cat back with staniless steel pipes at about 2.25". and thats about as throaty as youle get. just dont get a cheap ebay muffler can cause ull get a high pitch annoying sound. the stainless steel also helps alot. try out a magna flow

The Pacesetter Monza is on sale off Amazon for $225 + $11 shipping. I've used them before and recommend if you don't want a stupid muffler.

1) HIDs. Yep. Get some Hella E-code housings, and the HID kit of your choice. Your stock housings are H6054, for future reference.

2) Clear corners. You can get JDM corner lights from RHDJapan.com. They're clear. You can get the clear bumper lights from ebay.

3) Make your own intake. Unless you want to pay out the ass. I personally have a modified Civic intake. But as everyone else has said... drop a K&N in the stock location, it'll work better, and WILL add sound. EVen with a stock exhaust, my civic intake gets annoyingly loud. VERY throaty, though... sounds like a Subaru boxer engine.

Thanks for the replies folks, I can't wait to start messing around with little things like the lights and intake on this car I've only had it for a day and really enjoy it. Sadly though the passenger window got broken out by a hobo so It'll cost a pretty good amount of money which sucks.
