Yeah car is lowered, not much. less than 1.5" with H&R springs.

I'd like to have it boot when i open the doors with the remote, with automatic shutdown when i don't crank the engine in the next minute. (i.e. if i just pick up something out of the car)
So i'm planning to get an electronics whiz to design me a circuit that takes two inputs and provides one output signal.

NICE!!! Your car's hot and your set-up is just sweet!!
My girl's brother has a 00' GT-S... His is red with a CF hood, some 18" Gunmetal wheels and he's looking to Turbo it... He's in L.I. too, maybe you know him.
Keep it up man!!

My dad has an '00 Celica GT-S, and I'm definitely going to show him this thread and try to get him to work on it. Good work man!

yeah i'm not sure how to do that, it's an interesting task.
heheh yeah, the problem is that if you get lowering springs you also need new shock/struts so yeah it starts adding up. I have KYB AGX Shocks/struts

Yea He DOES live in Brentwood!!! Ha ha ha! Small world for sure!! So you know Ricado? That's funny!! He told me he went to a meet in Jersey with some Celica buddies from the forum... maybe you were among them... I'm sure if I showed him pics of your ride, he'd recognize you too...

I'm hoping i can find somebody who knows enough about electronics to make me a design. The soldering and installing is not going to be a problem, just figuring out what and how to connect the lil black electronic thingys is going to be tricky ... If i manage to get it working i'll definately post it here.

heheh yeah, well i've never met him in person but i've talked to him and I've seen his ride at bald hill. He has seen my ride too. We are supposed to roll to DPA one of these days, you should come with us. I wanna see your set up! your ride is looking clean!
