anybody know how to wire all this? i'll use one optima will replace the battery i have rite now. the other will run all the electrical accesories. thanx for ur help.

hey wusup guys, juss a few basic questions.

if the stress of 6k rpm in first gear the same at 6k rpm in 5th gear?

also how does the power increase from 1st to 5th gear. i mean how do the engine and trans work to increase your speed through each gear.

thanx a lot

i got that one. i paid a pretty penny. lucky u.
get it. is good. get a dvd player for the car too. the quality is pretty good.

indeed. i was in such a rush at the moment that i totally forgot about our database. thanx

does anybody know where can i get a lighter flywheel for the 5sfe? and a good streetable clutch. also where can i find the trd short shifter for the cheapest price. thanx

okay.
sale's down. engine doesn't run anymore. it blew up. radiator's gone too. dun wanna sell it.

2000 last offer

it's cool. i was expecting ppl to say dat.
i said it's negotiable. WAYYYYYYYY negotiable.
it's a shell. okay. but it has a fairly good amount of werk done to it.
u could either rebuild the engine or swap.

body work alone cost me 3000. 2000 for paint job plus 700 body kit and 300 for the wing. and once again im including all the stock parts. (stock bumpers, and bump guards, and stock gt spoiler.) also vis zephyr style rear lip and side skirts will b included.

fellow celicans. i've posted my celica for sale a while ago. sorry for all of those who've reached me previously. i've juss been caught up in a lot of things.

so here it is. up for sale again.

94 gt. black. new paintjob back in july.
check my sig for pics.

errthin goes except the sound system and audio related items.

im askin for 3000 (negotiable) has engine problem. you WILL need to swap.

also im including all stock parts that came out when installing the body kit.

juss throw me a price and take it away.

not willing to part out or ship separate pieces. too much money and work. juss take it all. askin 2000.

i aint puttin the car down in any sense. im really lookin to buy one, but i honestly dun know if crankwalk is all hyped up. i hope it is. cuz i dun wanna get it. for now im juss dreamin of turbo and 4wd handling. hm~~~~ sweet

one more thing. crankwalk was found on completely stock cars that have been taken care of in a religious manner. i talked to this baby-boomer aged guy, he had all oil changed done on time and all the other maintenance. he never raced it. and got crankwalk around 50k miles.

i've looked into gsx's a lot lately. all the concerns about fragile and faulty turbo's are due to CRANKWALK. there's a lot of 2nd gen 4g63 dat hab this problem and mitsu and chrysler won't recall it.
the crankwalk problen once you get it is not fixable most of the times. very few have been fixed. u'll prolly hab to swap. i've heard about cases that get crankwalk even after swaps. so look into that.

signs of crankwalk:
clutch gets stuck on the bottom.
trouble shiftin gears after hard left turn.
"tick"ing noise around the timing belt area.
those are juss some signs and the ones that happen towards the end.
again all the mechanical troubles buggin the 2nd gen eclipses are due to crankwalk.thrust bearings, crankshaft, rod bearing, thrust sensor, timing belt, and many more.

now that my celi is dead im lookin into gsx too. and the biggest drawback is this crankwalk issue. this issue seems to be most prevalent in the 95,96, some 97 and some 98.
99's havent come up wif the problem yet. but never know.
one fix to this seems to b a swap with the 1st gen 4g63, which was built slightly different and it seems to b free from crankwalk. plus it's got a better blow off valve.
hope this helps you.

lucky bastards!!!

dat is rite. no poly kits for us. mostly fibergalss. u got original veilside kits that cost thousands, but fit is guaranteed and they make their kits with a mix of fiberglass and carbon fiber.

thanx for the comments guys. greatly appreciated. i do not want to part ways wif my car, but my parents are patyin for the expenses. i hab some money of my own which could be enough to get a front clip from jarco. however i do not hab the money to proceed wif the swap. my parents are not willing to shell out any for a swap. thus the idea of a swap is scratched. i've dreamed about a 3sgte under my hood even before i came through this site. and i thought i could make it come true when i got here. however, things never go as planed and i never got near the swap. i'll prolly b disappointing a lotta peeps. and im sorry. i luv my 6gc as much as all of u do.

once again this is a great site and i do not want to leave.

sorry for the long post.

though about that stuff. but i dun wanna spend money on an engine if it's not goin to be a swap

i hab front and rear stock bumpers. two fenders. drivers side is ****ed. vis zephyr rear lip and side skirts. rear lip needs a hand. and the bump guards that go behind the bumpers.

in addition i had a pioneer head unit and a rockford 12" sub. it's ripped. but it still punches hard.

it me up on anything u need.

i already posted my fs at the buyin and sellin section. juss wanted to let u guys know (and coomer of course) that this is The most friendly forum i've even been to. although ppl get heated sometimes. i always had the feelin that errone here is willin to help each other out and share knowledge. i've learned a lot from this site. thanx a lot guys.

the reason im partin wif my bayb is engine damage. i didnt hear the details of it cuz it bothered me too much. but i heard my mechanic babble about the pistons and some ****.

later yall.

i'd like to be a member of this forum still.

my celi's up for sale. nyc area. needs a new engine. or u could rebuild it. i believe the problem is with the pistons. didn't really wanna hear about wut wuz wrong. hurts too much. e mail me if interested. hpmmx@yahoo.com. check out my profile to hab a look at my car. errthin goes except the sound system. askin 2000

i'll let yall know about the amperage and **** when i gets home. sorry for the late response. im dying wif finals up my ass

i can do it on my celi. matter of fact i go driftin with my friends. they have 240's, mr2, what not. i have a very wide accel pedal and i use sneakers.

accelerate preferably over 3rd or 4th gear. step on the brake. while letting go off the brake a lil bit, step on the clutch and with ur heel tap the accel. and downshift. start to turn pull the brake while ur keepin ur foot on the accel. then u'll feel ur rear losing grip. turn ur wheel the opposite way u first turned ur wheel. and there u hab it. FWD DORIFTO~~~~. doesnt look as fancy as rwd drifts but it's good enough to hab a lotta fun. hope it helps

i juss got back an emal from a company dat makes bigger more powerful alternators. they gave me 3 models dat fit my car. the price range is from $ 350 to 550. plus i need adaptor brackets $50 and adaptor plugs $35. would u consider this too expensive?

wusup guys. i've heard that there's a website out there that makes big chevy alternators fit cars like ours. all u hab to do is send them ur alternator and they will modify the bolts on the chevy alternator to fit ur car. i was wonderin if anyone has any info on this or any related ideas.
