whats even better is the celica love where a numpty buys some door cards then has to cancel trip to get them, but fellow celica nut is only too happy to collect them and hold onto them for original said numpty

[500 BHP GT4?]

Possible, yes. But for how long. Inline 4 engines have an inherent unbalance that takes it's toll for very high powers. It's why inline 6 engines are easily pumped up to 1000+.

the gen 5 GT4 i speak of has been running 400bhp on the standard gasket for at least 6 years, with no problems

[500 BHP GT4?]

i imagine its more than possible, i know of a gen 5 with just over 400bhp, and the st205 engine is meant ot be stronger and capable of much more

[toyota dealerships costs]

only dealing i have had is when they tried to charge me £400 for a fuel tank i desperatly needed

couldnt get one from a breaker at the time and managed to talk them down to £300 - bet toyota dealership still made a profit on that transaction

[Main Dealer timing belt change disaster]

what toyota garage was it?

[Main Dealer timing belt change disaster]

i will go see them if you want Adam, I would make them respray at least the areas affected and replace the rubbers

[What do you NOT like about your Celica?]

I've always felt my 6 could have done with a 6th gear!

totally agree, lost count how many times i took it out of 5th to look for another gear

[whats the mpg]

best record was around 350 miles to a tank, but on average i was getting 25-30mpg depending on traffic and stuff, but its so long since i drove it i cant really remember

[What do you NOT like about your Celica?]

i dont like the fact i havent driven it in 9 months

[High Mileage? What's your numbers?]

just sold a gen 5 on 176000 and still drove strong, toyota engines are built strong, well most, they dont seem to make 1.8 engines very well

[well my car can just p*$s right off! (its going now)]

generally the celica calipers are crap, i have replaced my rears and both fronts because the brakes are pants, i have the sensation on my front o/s that its warped but been checked and always comes back straight, think tbh its a calliper problem more than anything else

[couple of nice celicas on pistonheads]

he actually isnt, might drop him a we message

[couple of nice celicas on pistonheads]

first one is zapf side skirts, really rare and ones i really really want

second car is a bit of a mungrel with bits of different kits

[deleted]

Can a GT realistically do more than 124mph? haha

both of mine managed more than that regulary (on a track of course) i remember reading somewhere that if you fit uk clock unit it de-limits it but the millage would obviously show from whatever car those said clock came out of

[Weighting up my options]

keep it, just check out my tropicana rebuild, bought the car for £600 a few years ago and spent close to £2k putting it back to the condition it should have been in, only component i havent replaced yet is the suspension because i keep mending other things, pretty soon though i will have a brand new gen 6

no-one said celica-itis made sense

[just a word of caution]

all saftey gear is a good idea, i dont know how many times i have used a grinder without gloves i always wear safety glasses though being i only have vision in one eye anyway

to danny gutted for you mate, i think this car is out to get you

[questions you have always wanted to ask]

im guessing your hearing things

[gen 6 with no MOT]

I would give you around £600 for it but no way of getting it home without an MOT

[auto celicas]

nix or bigb might have an auto box, just convert your own car,

[CELICALITUS - explained]

well i can safely say im not far from this

iv been here since 2008, had 3 celicas, keep leaving them but always find myself coming back to them, even when i dont own one i love looking at them, so i to have Celicaitis

true dan

i currently have my gen5 and my original gen 6, but still find myself looking all the time

[CELICALITUS - explained]

Well I spend all day on here talking crap, and since 2008 I have owned 4 celicas

3 gen 6 and 1 gen 5, after a recent trip to australia i bought a gen 4 which is in my parents garage, would be a fair old trip to go and polish that

[still here]

Hope it all turns out good Bri,takes bollocks to jack it and have a go yourself fella

cheers mate its coming on here that keeps things light

also i have driven to inverness a few times and still cant understand why people live there, it takes half your life to get in and out

[still here]

a lot of fuel economy is down to how you drive not how much it costs

for a run like that i would need about 4 or 5 pick ups and drop offs

[still here]

Blood Bank did they catch you stealing blood again

cheers dan, good old celicaclub always cheers me up
