Hmm..i will try it and see. The stock radio has an issue with its CD player feature, as it locks/rejects CDs

Been away for a while....cash pot dried out, did some suspension work on her,had everything checked and firmed up...still hoping I'd have her painted.

Here's how she looks, my sis got me all into collages,says "u could have more pics in it"...oh we'll...

I'd be saving up for some springs,sway bars and an engine strut bar/brace...that's next on the line.

Op,

Mehn, this ride is wow. Nice job you're doing

I'll buck the trend here and say - Why not just buy a proper RWD sedan?

You obviously dont lack the money to service a fine german sedan if you wanted to.

Sway bars and an engine strut brace for an I4 sedan.

I'm almost angry for you. But choice differs and alas, your choice cant be mine.

You know what you're absolutely right dear sir, hmmm....but then why stop when obviously I'd want more from THAT RWd bimmer I've always wanted...

It's a Camry(parts are affordable with Camrys all over n reliable)I'd like to do it properly, GOAL is to have it eventually stripped out, Bride buckets and harnesses,Uprated brakes n suspension(thus the upgrade on the sway bar,struts).....

The car seems to have potential(I think),already good rigidity and a mild chassis roll-....il Up the four cylinder soon for more power-...and if I get to do everything correctly, it should be a first in Nigeria. Only weaklink is its crappy transmission.

It's fun and expensive, and easy to stray(acquisition of parts that are reliable and won't break),

@Jacksolo4 me, your car is really a beauty to behold, in my opinion its worth all the cash u have put into it. i just cant wait for the picture update on the sway bars.

Thank you sir, still a work in progress though.....I'll keep on posting

Finally Got my 18's on BBS('es)---

Yeah, guess I kinda did myself in with the Tires profile-

245/40/18f
245/45/18r

With this setup, I felt it wasn't so excessive, it's stable though and she sits pretty with her nose slightly tipped forward.....

Here's how she looks, would upload more pics in time with another camry owner.

The new set of rims are really nice how about the sway bars? Have they arrived yet?

dumo1:

Thank you sir, would upload proper pictures soon,

Had a snag with the order, so had to ditch, I've got something else planned interior wise, Should be focusing on the engine soon.

NICE WORK!!!.

TOO BAD your car color is gold/fawn...................imagine your car colour was white or silver..the mods especially the black accents on the hood and roof would look awesome

Have you heard of plastidip?
Its a sprayable plastic paint...u can simply peel off when you want...google it.
you could use it to cheaply transform ur car to any color..eg white n see how it looks.... if you wanna go this route..google for youtube videos on how to do it properly...u might need up to 4 to 8 cans for a good finish and top up with 2 cans of glossy clear coat

Thanks Readonee35L, still a work in Progress., its an Ff, frankly it's base is frowned upon by the tuner community....But got a breakthrough..The Scion Tc shares the same mods thatl fit in the engine...original Plan is to keep it simple, intake(checked), exhaust, headers, my only problem is itl run rich-Only way is to have her tuned(which ain't possible this side of the world)

Your Honda Pilot's dark green color would go with some serious wheels with a bad a s s offset, 20's, I saw some on Google, I've got a pic..

I've got a friend whose got something similar to this..interested I could get da price over for you, wheel and rim,or rims alone

Yes sir, I did consider it once, it's part of a series of "shop cars"-(future plans) and I don't plan on selling(resale value sucks though-nairaland autos) so plastic dip wouldn't b an option for the kind of paint job I want...

Most grateful for the consideration and the link, I would have some cans shipped over but thatl be for another car

pdates;

Changed the steering wheel to an aftermarket one(just a temporary fit,pending When my Original MOMO does arrive)

Installed a custom side splitter and a custom made Spoon type bumper splitter wing.

Next MODS
--bride Buckets and the long Awaited engine brace.

-- Full Cat-back Exhaust( most parts would be from the scion Tc so it's a direct fit to the Camry)

NEXT MODS

Best MOMO's ever!, since I set my eyes on one I saw at a car show..I have always wanted it!...soon soon soon!!!

And ofcourse the Bride Buckets, once she arrives I'll stick it the stock Seat belt until she's ready for a Back -seat delete, then I'll get my hands on em Takata's

Mehn, You are making me fall inlove with camry day by day
Best camr i have seen in Nigeria
i dont really like that steering i prefer the momo tho.

You Camry is Outstanding .
Ur wheels

No more steering airbag module

lomomike:
No more steering airbag module

Picture this.....

75amp battery with the appropriate wiring to an impact sensor module, the battery n steering wheel placed under the pillow...

The Mrs comes back from work all showered up n looking like Zena the warrior princess only Hornier

Me lying on the bed looking like fela with the white pants on....

You get d drift....a bit of dark humor..

Oga Lomomike..Ive got an alternate car I use..this is more like a shop car.

@Readonee35L, thanks sir oh..Na the performance part of the whole build plan is where the "wahala" dey oh.

Noticed the pics were a bit blurry, here are clearer ones. I took earlier

Nice car, how much did you get the MOMO?

yungboss:

Thanks for loving Da Camry(Even though e b pure water).. So was the Ek civic too...

Hi Jneo,

What do you have in mind?
Begin with that and watch other ideas materialize too.
Cheers

Jneo,
Firstly.the Camry is an FWD.although its nice in the city.Take it up a winding road n trust me.Your tires(205/225-60/55/-R16)
Would squeal...so don't expect much.Its not a great base to work on...Limited only cos its better looking than the GEN5 OR NEWER GEN 7/8/9 camrys

Start with the Wheels and Tires(Bigger is better- Cheap way to get some better controlled "Handling" Than the stock tires provide.Its a great base to get the styling you'd want.
Wheel color, Wheel Size and styling,Offset(a 1.5-2inch Lip would be good looking).

Color of your Camry.

Engines-Go basic.Intake/exhaust/Cams/ECU.
Get yourself a Catback exhaust system(Best look at Toyotanation.com( our naija ISP's are banned from it I guess)

And Lowering Springs/Or a set of Coilovers.
Best get lowering springs/DO NOT CUT YOUR EXISTING ONES!!!

or you Could just Slam a set of 20inches and feel up the gap in the wheel well.


Interior...Keep Stock for now.Do audios if you're into that kinda stuff...the stock ones are good enough for me.

My Car is currently on stands...lol.She's back to project car status...im re-doing her from the ground up.PROPERLY.

So if you neeed ideas.Toyotanation is the place to go for all things Camry.i could share pics to help out with "Styling".Or RICING
