I'm too busy to make a new webpage for my modified Camry, so here are some temporary links to the pics I have posted.  The pics are outdated, there have been many significant changes in the last few months.  The stereo has been totally redone, no more bird's nest in the trunk.  The sub has been sold, as well as the 10 disc CD changer and that white amp.  I also got tints put on, medium in the back, light in the front.  The engine bay has been cleaned up as well; the wiring is no longer exposed and I have a Ractive cone intake installed with a ram air setup.  Lastly, I put on a custom Brullen catback exhaust system with dual 3" tips.  I was going to go dual mufflers but changed my mind...here's a photoshopped pic.

Mod list is down below...click HERE if you're too lazy to scroll down.  Here are two recent pics of my car...pic #1 and pic #2.

I dynoed my car, click here to see a picture of the graph. The dyno includes my intake and catback exhaust system.

Updates:

June 2004:  I bought a new 2004 Honda Accord EX-L 4 cyl with a 5-speed transmission.  Nothing was wrong with my Camry, but I just wanted a new car.  We already have a 2003 Camry in the family, so I went with something else. You can find the Accord website here.  The Camry has been stripped down of most of its mod, except for the the suspension. and some minor details.  The Scepter panel, projectors, taillights, stereo, have all been sold or traded off.  The Camry is staying in the family, but it won't be my daily driver.

March 2004:  Sold my projectors, traded off my red tails and I acquired a SCEPTER center piece.  That is the Japanese name of the Camry over in Japan.   I think I'm slowly demodding my car.  *I have so many people inquire about this...I bought it locally from a guy here in Toronto. He brought it back straight from Japan on a plane, so that's the only way I know you can get one...try eBay?*


September 2003 - I made projectors with angel eyes for my Camry over the summer, it was a pretty crazy task.  I had an extra set of lights lying around, so why not?  The projectors and angel eyes are from a 1997 aftermarket headlight set for an Accord. Enjoy!


July 21, 2003 - Today I hit 150,000 km!!!! :( 

July 19, 2003 - I finally had some time to fix my clear tail (the one that cracked and melted from October 2002). I purchased an old one online, took it apart and then painted the orange lens red using glass paint.  As well, I painted all the other pieces red as well just so that they were uniform in colour.  Here is the final result.


July 6, 2003 - I've been super busy in life but it was time to change my brakes.  I bought 4 Brembo blank rotors, painted them silver to prevent rusting and then mounted them. It took me 3.5 hours all by myself...it could've been faster but one rotor was rusted on.  I used two bolts to remove the rotor but it cracked the whole front part off.  There's some pics on that.  As well, I put on KVR pads on the front, and Toyota's on the back. 


November 14, 2002 - I've added a guestbook and mini forum for my site. Please put your comments in the guestbook! Also, if you have any questions on my car, please put your question in the forum.  Thanks!


October 26th, 2002 - My family picked up our new 2003 Camry LE V6.  Nothing special, drives like a boat...even that is an overstatement.  Here's a pic: 

 


October 13th, 2002 - I made clear tail lights for my Camry.  Initially, I wanted to just take off the lens to remove some condensation, and then I kept on making screwing up the lens.  I had to paint it to cover up some marks...then I cracked it and melted it by accident.  Since the new black lines didn't match my red center piece, I had to then paint my center piece!  I really didn't want to do this mod but now I'm stuck with it.  


August 10th, 2002 - I sold my Enkei's and got new rims...ALT AT-190's wrapped in Toyo Proxes TPT 215/55/16.  They are basically replica's of Tenzo-R AV-7s...and Konig Tantrums and Montegi's MR-7s...the list goes on, but they are better quality than the Montegi's.  Here are some pics. 


May 2, 2002 - I was really pissed that I lost my wallet so I finished making my intake.  I finally replaced the air hose in between the air flow meter and throttle body.  Haven't driven the car but just revved the engine...doesn't sound much different.  I'm not expecting much from this mod, just spicing up the engine bay.  Click HERE for the intake pictures. 


April 20, 2002 -I had some free time so I made my own CAI ... yes, cold air intake!  Click HERE to get to the page and pictures!  I'm very happy with the performance, I gained back my low end torque and it's noticeable.  My open filter in the engine bay and catback exhaust really robbed my car of low end power.
