Introducing the HELLICA!!!!!!!!!!

Having Deathrunner withdrawls....here is my latest "rockcrawler"









The flex on this thing is pretty awesome...again props to Toyota. Suspension is fully stock. Once I get the Deathrunner back, this little monster goes into Protrux for long travel suspension on all 4 corners. I will also be constructing a full exo cage and bumpers and sliders.

The Hellica will be lifted roughly 10" over stock and riding on 35x12.50 BFG Mud Terrains...That's right bigger tires than the Deathrunner.

I am in the process of having custom fiberglass flares made and a custom fiberglass hood with scoop to accomodate the TRD supercharged 3.4L V6 that will be transplanted into this rig. IFS and IRS will consist of Toyota 8" sections with modified tundra axles. The suspension arms will be 6" over on each side. Dual Tcases and a 6 speed manual transmission from a Tacoma Srunner will be used as well.

Front and rear winches will be utilized as well as front and rear Toyota E-lockers.

This will be an exceptional Celica......THE HELLICA

Stay Tuned.....

Sweet. Maybe I should look into buying my neighbours Toyota Tercel and make it into a rock crawler aswell. COil over suspension, High Steer, a little fender trimming, a 12 inch body lift, I bet I could fit some 38's on it.

Hahahaha thanks for the laugh man

I wish I wasn't kidding, but If you built a frame for it, It doesn't seem too different from a buggy.

I just got bored the other day, and seeing the INSANE amount of flex got me thinking.
After doing the Deathrunner, I'll be lucky to change the oil on thise thing.

But, in all seriousness, I owe alot to this car, by taking obver as my DD, it has really allowed me to do some neat things to the Deathrunner, I will post when it is done.
