[Grounding kits]

I dont need one (bought a Grounding Kits UK one) but if anybody has some pics of decent grounding locations for a 1zz I'd be grateful.

maybe he died?

um... that's a bit excessive mate

I bought a kit from Pete towards the end of last year. There was a massive delay on them and he told me via email that it was 'cos he was really ill. I eventually got them however, and have fitted them.

Although I had to guess the best grounding points - he sent me the 190 engine bay pic with a few circles dotted about which weren't very clear.

If a GB does come of this, I'd only be interested in finding out where the best grounds are on a 140

I would buy those just to beat the crap out of the dude who painted them that way.

33.43mpg on my 140 Gen7 with around 70/30 motorway/town driving. Hoping it'll go up a bit after it's service and new front tyres

[sad news.]

Good luck finding a nice Tsport. The sooner the better.

[Member stickers etc]

i signed up early Jan too and got an email which states the last two posts packs sent once a month so expect them towards the end of the month!

However, i got impatient and got in touch with Mook who set me up with a pair of horned CCUK stickers. two days after sending mook payment I whacked them on my motor! a very speedy purchase.

Now I'm representin' mah crew, yo

[ECU flashing..]

As stated above it is not possible to reflash/remap any Celica ECU.

to mention further, this is because the Celica's ECU is "locked", which means it cannot be reprogrammed/remapped/flashed. I'm unsure of the older generations as I'm speaking from a Gen7 standpoint.

the only way to remap your ECU is to purchase an after-market piggy-back or standalone solution such as an Apexi PowerFC or AEM Engine Management System (EMS) which will ultimately replace the Celica's stock ECU.

Additionally, as mentioned above by joe588, naturally aspirated cars (i.e. cars without a turbo or supercharger) are harder to get big gains from while cars running forced induction (turbo & supercharged) are a lot easier to get significantly larger gains from, but ultimately the power you gain is limited by the quality and strength of the components in your car's engine.

I hope this helps.
