    It sounds as good as it looks. This car is without a doubt, the best sounding Honda I've owned yet. It had a short ram on it, but it has that annoying whistle ALL the time, even at idle.

    I swapped that with the even shorter SRI from a Sunfire I had on the coupe, and no more whistle. Now it's silent at idle, but gives you a nice induction chirp when you get on it and has a really deep growl on the throttle. The car is slightly louder now.

    I need to get a video clip, it sounds soooo good. Puts my coupe to shame.

      Like the wagon better than the coupe.... just saying.

      Oh and how do you like the plastic dip? does it lay good? chip off easy? how much of the can did you use?

        Plastidip is pretty much like rockerguard....but that you can peel it off.

        It's cool for a temporary thing, but it's textured and not something I'd really use again.

        And yes....I think I like the wagon more too lol. Tempting to just H swap the wagon and build it and use the coupe for the daily lol.

          A can go along ways? i'm thinking about doing my hood roof and trunk on the celica.

          And yeah that's your call, but i've always liked a wagon over a sedan and a sedan over a coupe. My last and final honda project will be a wagon i just need to find one first.

            The stuff is expensive. $20 for the aerosol can, $25 for the can to brush it on. I used a spray can and I still have a little left. Comes in the same size as a regular spray paint can, so whatever coverage that would typically get you.

              Wow man the wagon looks sick as hell! I picked up the oem cargo mat and oem roof rack with basket at the junkyard this past weekend Too bad i can't use them. I still need to clean them up. They were on a 92/93 burgandy lx wagon. Thing was covered in branches and bushes.....The roof rack was almost covered completely. Funny thing was the windshield said it still ran !

              Makes me want to get a wagon even more!

              When i saw your mileage i almost shit but then i realized you are in canada So it is only km but then i did the math and it is over 300k...wow.

              Keep up the awesome work man. Can't wait to see what you have in store.

                Hahah, yes it's high miles, but it has a newer motor in it. The engine in this car has some jam. Runs super smooth, lots of power, but it does burn a little oil.

                For a big clunky wagon, it's pretty quick, but my coupe blows it away.

                I'd love the roof rack and cargo mat.

                        Because it's too damn low. Strut brace adds a little of the lost rigidity.
