  1. Happy 2 Anniversary 4jw!

  2. Happy Birthday 4jw!

  3. hp i think is a little redudant to spectulate for our cars. there's not really that much! servicing regularly(moreso if youre smashing it) keeps it from loosing as fast but celicas are actually light cars which go well for handling. someone told me we are lighter than the integra and those things handle really well. i kept up with them on tracks with my sports m and our cars take corners well. not amazingly for straights so no need to worry about hp if the car is working and well maintained. just enjoy the corners!
  4. Yh, that's the hardcore way of doing it. Works for me, You just need a lot of runway! Your's are bigger but I still welcome you to the yellow club mate. Good work with your car
  5. if you want to do it properly like a race car: find a long dual carriage way or motorway at NIGHT. Accelerate to 70mph then brake all the way to 15mph, then soon at you're there accelerate again to 60mph and back down to 15mph and so on until you accelerate from 20 to 10. at that point, just get back to 70 and drive normally to let it COOL ( TRY NOT TO TOUCH THE BRAKE FOR THE NEXT 5-10 MINUTES). Doing this will run your pads and disc in 1 go and leaves a fine layer of pad material on the disc which will also help breaking. repeat a second time if necessary and just to confirm that the brakes are really doing it for you! PS: try to do that after 50 miles just to get rid of the coating on the discs first.
  6. Happy 1 Anniversary 4jw!

  8. Never too loud! It's like saying you agree to much or I won't like anymore for free, absurd!
  9. Made sense that the oe optimized for city driving and also proves the lack of kick moving from SRI to oe box
  10. what do you guys think? he's a clever lad and ive learnt a hell of a lot from him. comprehensive answer to which intake? http://www.carthrottle.com/engineering-explained-cold-air-intakes-vs-short-ram-intakes/
  11. Screw it, I was never a fan of the stock seats anyway! I've opted for welding on some new subframes to make way for aftermarket seats. What can a driver side GT seat fetch? Also, to save distress, I am aware I need a 3x4 metal plate to weld to the chassis before welding that to the subframes.
  12. That's well beyond me to produce sadly thanks for the help.
  13. you got me beat! thats youngness and milage! very impressive. be sure to service her regularly!
