Clint's Celica GTS Article: Brian C. Photography: Alex k., Ed K., John G. Videography: Brian C. Location: Munky Wurks Garage Gallery Page Home Page Article: The newest version of the Toyota celica is the most radical looking celica to date. Looking more like a jet plane then a car it’s easy to imagine what a celica could look like highly modified. The new celica’s high revving engine and six-speed transmission make it a fun to drive sports car. It’s hard to imagine that this engine will be used in the Lotus Elise coming here soon. Since it’s release the new celica has a variety of parts available from the dealer and those hard to get parts from Japan. Clint’s celica may look like just your ordinary show car celica but it’s not. Many of the parts he decided on are rare in America. The exhaust system from Trial Tuning Spirit is a prototype version, never being released for sale in Japan. Wow now that’s impressive. His C-One parts are from a handful imported to us Yankee’s. Other parts are hard to get unless you get them from the Munky’s. When I saw his headers I was fooled, they look like aftermarket but really are polished stock ones. And yes everyone loves HIDs…. Clint like all of his fellow Munky’s chose Defi BF gauges as well, and their placement is truly custom and genius. Nice Nice Nice Clint in my opinion has really set the bar for those other would be celica tuners here. His car seems complete to me although I’m sure the parts will keep coming…. could there be boost in the near future, I’d like to know. Thank you to Clint Orimoto and once again Munky Wurks Garage.

The TRIAL Tuning Spirit full titanium exhaust is a prototype based off of TRIAL's (http://www.trial.co.jp) circuit race car in Japan. This is one of 3 unreleased-to-the-public prototypes being tested for TRIAL Japan in preparation for the later versionIII public release that will feature secondary resontors as well as more sound dampening. Version II was too loud for off-track use in Japan and USA. 2 other prototypes are being tested on Celicas in the mainland that are also test running TRIAL's U.S. tuned version of the Blitz Compressor (supercharger) for the Celica GT-S. The C-ONE Motorsport aero kit and carbon hood featured on this car are one of less than 5 that have been imported to North America direct from Japan. Same for the C-ONE rear tri-bar. Headlights, bumper lights, door sills, emblems, cluster are all impossible to find locally or on the net and not readily available aside from direct import from Japan. Some are discontinued parts that are no longer attainable. Most of these parts can be sourced through us.
