  1. Happy 2 Anniversary Jay_28!

  2. Good point Dan, don't get me wrong I'm already missing my t sport and to be honest I wish I kept it aswell as the VAG Diesel But yes high revving machine is what I miss on open country roads, I also have my eye on a DC2 as we speak lol
  3. When I had my gen 7 things I hated were complete lack of torque and shoody brakes they were my only two gripes Now in the world of TDI I know why now almost all manufacturers opt for forced induction be it charger or turbo just = effortless drive through more torque when u need it most I.e. Overtaking, something you have to plan months in advanced in the gen 7 Don't get me wrong it was a good Car but it could have been a great car All they needed were; pot piston brakes, factory fitted turbo/charger, cruise control, heated seats and a good gearbox ratios Had this been done the residual values would be much higher and it would be a sort after commodity My 2pence worth
  4. So to beat an ep3 you will really need Limited slip diff Lightened flywheel Engine polybushes to keep it composed Light weight driver lol Sub 13 stone No alloys (this would reduce weight) strip interior Basically heard a 190 will outdo a ep3 if lightened. Sports m v ep3 would b interesting lol
  5. R.I.P 2ZZR.I.P K20 Enjoy the last of n/a high revving engines and take pleasure in knowing that you were the last to experience them in their true form The future is green, the future is eco friendly
  6. What is Toyota's answer to this? Hopefully they will get guts to bring out a turbo Gt86 or better still a new celica gt4.... Il keep dreaming lol
  7. Every manufacturer is utilising turbo technology now. It's the way forward lol Hmmm I wonder if it will be a two dimensional engine? Turbo at low end revs followed by vtec yo!
  8. Lol, each to their I guess, we all have different tastes but I highly doubt the teg will blow this 2.0litre turbo type r out of the water
  9. interesting that the civic lacks in some areas though No TRC No VSC No climate control No side airbags *Seems celica is more safety orientated not a bag thing* Plus points for civic Seats look more comfortable and better (not sure about driving position) Gear shifter Better stance on stock Personally speaking id love one BUT not worth the extra cost in my opinion for what you get.... However in years to come i will DEFFO be looking at getting this 280bhp beast! It apparently will have very accessible torque low down... Jst what the doctor ordered
  10. Nah not leaving mate, spent to much time money and effort to depart these shores lol But just wanna test drive one so I can say I've driven one and had the experience However when the 2015 New type Type R is released which looks mighty impressive at 280bhp with turbo then yes I want one over the celica!! If you ain't seen it get googling
  11. I won't lie I really like the ep3 it's gearbox being the strong point as opposed to the celicas notchy box, bushes and short shifter only help to a degree Also vtec kicks in at 5,700rpm vs lift at 6,200rpm, plus vtec has bigger range than lift Im thinking to go test drive an ep3
  12. What even in my case? With full suspension polybushes, lowered and uprated anti roll bar?
