6G Celicas Forums

i'v got a 1977 toyota Celica GT lift Back (RA29) for sale here in bay area, CA. this is a great project car or dohner car for those who already has one. the body is in great condition (original paint) and has no dents. the interior is is in okay condition but better than what you will find in most RA2X now-a-days. the engine runs strong (20R/2.2L) but need a good tune up. it also has its original wheels!. it is getting harder and harder to find these cars and i'm selling mine for cheap! hit my up at trueno20v@aol.com if interested.

thanks. i appreciate that!

does anybody know where i can fome some good info and liturature on the 1st gens?

on a 6GC?... if you have the stock motor, be it a 5S-FE or 7A-FE, yah... your acceloration will suck a lot MORE weaker than what it already is with bigger/heavier rims. but it will make your 6GC look alot MORE better that what it already is. i've got 17's on mine and i've already accepted the fact that my car will just have to look good before i can go fast.

where in WA do you live?

here in cali, passing emissions isn't so easy. i'm wodering, would a US spec 3S-GTE pass cali emissions?

oh, the things we would do if we could just turn back time...

i, my self, don't like the Stage II from Center Force or any other clutch they sell. i like ACT. it gives a nice, crisp bite in hard shifting. i don't like Center Force, thats in my car now, because it wears out fast and doesnt really do the job as ACT would. there are some rumers that the wieghts that or on the pressure plate tend to break off and really meeing up your fly wheel... i'm just waiting for that. Clutch Masters is also one of my favorites. i have a Stage III in my AE86 and its just SICK!.

doesn't HP Performance make headers for the 7A-FE in the corolla? whay can't you use those? there is a "How to Install" section here that talks about it, isn't there?

the easiest and most cheap way i could think of is gutting you whole inerior. a lighter car helps for better acceleration. thats the end resalt we all want. and we all know the celica could use a diet!

i guess its suppose to up the fuel mixture and add up to 25%HP. can anyone vouche for this? does it work. its like, $400 or something for it. thats a lot of money for one of the not so many mods we can get.

does that thing really add up to 25%? do you feel the increase?

"forgotten super car" how true is that? but, its great for us that still remember it!

how did you do that? you can't possibly shave the head and deck that low and i know you can't use any adjustable cam gears for our ST motors, can you?

so, do you have any recomendations of which fog light would have the bracket to match the holes that are already there from factory?

how did you guys mount the fog lights?

how far would you retart the timming for NO2?

what is stock compression on the 7A-FE anyway? and even if my motor is in good to even great shape, a 50 shot is still concidered "beating the $hIt out of it"? then what about a 40 shot or a 30 shot? i don't even know if those are noticable gains once below 50.

i guess that means not the 7A-FE also. what a downer!

so, isn't there a saying that all engines can handle a 50 shot?

oh well, no big deal, right?

who cares about the terms or abbreviations i know people know what i'm talking about when i say NOS. you did, inferno.

...oh man!
sorry for my incorrect term of Nitrous Oxide. forgive me for thinking that saying the word "nos" everyone would know what i was talking about. my bad.. i guess.

now, back to the subject, i was thinking of getting a Nitrous Express Kit for my ST but only squeezing a 50 shot. no more and no less. how would the engine hold up to this. what kind of ignition tuning would i have to do?

the 7A-FE is so weak i now must resort to NO2

just wondering how the 7A-FE would handle a 50 shot or so.

"found ANOTHER"... wheres the other site that offers turbo kits for the 7A-FE?

yah, i figure i should only TRY to go fast when i have a quarter tank of gas and remove my spare tire.
