Only here. In Japan there is a huge market for Celsior goodies, but the Japanese keep the best stuff at home. What is more depressing is that my 98 could be had for about Y200,000 all day long and I paid 8K for mine.

I shop all day long on YAJ and other sites looking for 98-00 Celsior parts. Compared to UCF10 or early UCF20, the late-model UCF20 parts are a little more thin on the ground, especially for lighting options. Just depends on what you are looking for.

Not disagreeing with you but if you have ever been to Japan you would see what I mean; there are literally dozens of shops in the Tokyo/Yokohama area where new or used parts can be found easily for our cars and most of this stuff is not online.

Got the wheels polished up for the cars and coffee in the morning. Snapped a few photos with the cell. Looked pretty clean today IMO. Going to finally get a new fender in a week or two....

I'm on Megan EZ's. Once I get the fender on, I think I will drop the front end a little more.

lol, I have some expensive hobbies; cars, photography, fursuits, and snowboarding. That one is actually named Lexus because he's based off of my old IS300.

LPs go plenty low. I laid frame, static on LPs with my UCF20. I have them on my UCF10 as well.
