[/color][font="Arial Black"][/font][color="#FF0000"]Hi......
I am looking at getting some new tyres for my ST205 its running between 330- 400 BHP weather dependant...........i have had goodyear eagle f1s in the past and also a set of bridgestones........and now i do not know what brand to go for?.......my tyre size is 235/40/18 any help much appreciated?
cheers guys

Ian

Cheers Rusty will check them out!.....allthough fensport are quite expensive

Hi all i am after a TOYOTA CELICA GT4 ST205 TEIN SUPER STREET COILOVER KIT with adjustable upper mount set for camber adjust.Does anyone know where and cheapest place to get a set of these?

Cheers Ian

No backfiring but i know my motec ecu needs a good mapping session...i know next to nothing about these engines i just love driving the car......these vac lines i am going to look at...which ones are they?....are they connected to the blow off valve?....any pics would be great help??.....
Thanks

Thanks for the help i will look into this

Can i have some help here guys?......the revs on my st205 drop off down to zero whenever i brake hard or change gear and more often than not the car ends up stalling......even when not in gear if i rev up to 3000 rpm and then release the pedal the revs crash below tick over and then bounce back to tick over again sometimes causing car to stall....its getting quite dangerous now and the car hunts a lot sometimes when waiting at junctions or traffic lights??.....and again goes low enough to cut engine out??.......if i turn my wheel slightly (power steering ) this tends to steady out the revs???......any solutions please?

Ian

Can anyone help me out here?.....

I have a quite heavily modded ST205 with a twin plate ATS carbon fibre clutch every time i dip the clutch the revs plummit and the engine cuts out or almost cuts out....this happens when slowing down for traffic lights and is now becoming more of a danger as well as being embarassing and absolute pain in the ass.......even if stationary i dip the clutch the revs will drop quite a lot....once i am up and running i can go thru gears no problem....this always happens as i am slowing down to stop or i am trying to park going very slow.....any ideas please what could be causing this?......my car has had a complete new engine rebuild with high spec parts..no cat....3inch pipe front to back... bigger turbo ....all internals including crank...rods are TTE parts still using standard cams though... bigger injectors etc upgraded fuel pump ......induction kit (HKS) and Blitz super sound dump valve also fitted amongst other upgraded bits n bobs.....still using original alternator also the clutch is noisy as hell when the pedal is dipped.....loud like scrapping noise...been told this is normal for twin plate carbon fibre but have also been told it aint normal??.......does sound rough though but seems to work no probs apart from the cutting out business.

Any help much appreciated

Ian

no problems....i know somebody will buy it...i,m in no immediate rush
Ian

The only obvious thing that comes to mind is that it enables the exhaust gases to escape much faster because of the volume??the construction could be a factor aswell we are talking TTE here and because we are talking about the celicas/Mr2 then the restrictions/baffle plates of the corolla don,t mean a thing!.............maybe your better speaking to the guys that have used these pieces of kit...fensport might be a good start?..........i,ll post couple more pics over the weekend....as far as a price goes i,m waiting on a serious offer and then i,ll decide whether or not to sell...The price of this manifold will go up as the days go by pretty much the same as buying group 'A' parts which are becoming hard to come by nowadays .....i have already been offered £500 by an Mr2 owner and declined and am thinking of putting on ebay to see what offers i get but there will be a reserve in there!

Ian

Because this manifold was taken off the rally machine and was not included in the road cars....thats why it is so rare now......by fitting to the st205 it does allow more flowrate(when pushing the big power).............this piece of kit is the buisness if u want to use 500-600 bhp.....Not sure on restrictor plates??? and we are talking 3sgte celica/mr2 engines here anyway!.....Their is necessity when you want big power...the flange side is shown on the pic i took....fensport used to sell these parts when they first removed from the WRC,s.....and i,m pretty sure they are using them on high powered beasts they have moulded .....

Ian

Guys,
Just want to clear up some things here.....this manifold gives a far higher flow rate of exhaust gases then the standard ST205 manifold, so if your motor is producing high BHP then this is the baby you will need to maximise your cars potential!.....the standard manifold has a limit on the amount of flow it allows through and once maximised then thats all your gna get through it........obviously cos this TTE manifold was used on the corolla rally cars this is the kit for greater gains!!!.....the silver looking pipes were used on the corolla as part of anti lag set up!...these are not used with the ST205 and can be cut off or just left unused.........thats it in a nut shell really!
Ian

Here we go then guys ............only just noticed my typo error...ooops............sorry it is an outlet manifold and just for the record "n00bed all over or not" it,s good piece o kit ......the Mr2 boyz are paying good attention to this so might not have for very long!............

It fits onto the st205 or the mr2 turbo.....fensport used to sell them not anymore cos they are practically extinct!!!

i have 2 pics but can,t seem to insert them on this site...keeps asking for a URL?....aint got clue about this cos posted pics b4 on other sites!!!.....send me your email addresses and i,ll send pics that way!....unless you can tell how on this site?
Ian

I have in my possesion a WRC TTE OUTLET manifold taken from the famous wrc corolla .....to fit a ST205 gt4 or Mr2(3sgte)..........this item is rare as rocking horse Sh*t...and am looking for sensible offers??...............i knw how much these sold for when the last few were sold off and would rather keep hold than let go for stupid money!............

Thnx Ian

Everything is alligned correctly all the grooves in the correct slots etc.....when the wheel and boss are removed i can switch on indicators then manually turn the collar with my hand to cancel the indication...just when the wheel and boss kit are on the car and are in as far as possible and as i say married up correctly it will not cancel inds........momo uk say its common problem with import gt4 using their bosses but i,m just getting other peoples ideas on the topic and to see if similar probs have arisen with momo wheels or similar....thanks

Hi there guys,

i,ve rercently fitted a genuine momo steering wheel along with the correct momo boss kit on my jap import st205....the wheel looks and works fine but i now have a rather biggish gap around the boss/dash...and also my indicators fail to cancel out when i turn full lock.....i,ve spoken to momo and they reckon it,s normal because of the car being non uk and import model...apparently uk spec gt4,s are fine with same wheel etc??..anyone out there had similar problems?......is it something that can be fixed or do i just take it thats price to pay for owning import model!......thanks Guys any help appreciated.

Ian

Cheers mate i,ll give it a go and see what happens!
Ian

Thanks for trying to help ....this topic is more for wheels with airbag fitted tho...........mine aint got the airbag as import version id appreciate any more help if you have any.
Ian

Hi there i,ve bought a momo steering wheel with correct boss.....how easy is it to swap the wheels?....my car is a 1996 import and therefore has no airbag so the correct boss kit was bought......any advice would be greatly appreciated..thanks
Ian[b]

Chris can you give me prices for the SS-III front and rear splitters for the ST205 GT4 and do u have any pics of the OEM and TRD front/rear extensions please and prices aswell?
Thanks Ian

Hi there,
Can someone please put me out of my misery and suggest a good set of 18" rims that will fit straight onto my ST205 without the need for spacers....I know that the calipers are huge on the front set but surely someone out there makes a wheel to fit........I also need the name of a supplier prefebly in the Northwest UK as that is where i,m from......so any offers of advice welcome cos i,m getting a bit miffed now.
Thanks Ian.

I,ve noticed on a lot of US websites that Crower get good writeups and rave reviews by the sellers?...can anyone add to this because i want a good strong set of con rods....crank.....and pistons for my engine upgrade on a ST205!
I,ve heard horror stories about Eagle stuff so i,ll give them a miss.
Any help appreciated on this matter
Ta Ian

Hi there all,

thanks Ian.
