I feel pretty stupid asking this, but I tried searching and couldnt find any answers. Do you guys with GT-4 hoods drive in rain, and if so, do you do anything to stop rain from pouring into the grille on top of the hood? What would need to be protected inside the bay (5sfe)? The intake quickly comes to mind in order to prevent hydrolock.


Good question actually. biggrin.gif From my experience with GT4 hood. I used to have a FRP sheet under the grille where some water, rain will be drained to fron of the engine. The reason this sheet is quiet improtant is it will help you avoid the water splashed too much to the dicharge, header and some area valve cover where spark plug and cable located.

If you can see the orginal GT4 hood, there will be a sheet protection under the grille like I told you.... biggrin.gif


Yeah, I noticed that. On close-up shots of some people's hoods you can see a metal vent thing under the plastic grille. Is it a Toyota part, and if so, does anyone know the part number?

Does anyone know the part numbers for the bigger brakes that have "Celica" embossed on them. Im pretty sure they came on 6th gen GT-4's. Are they available from dealerships, etc? Also, can you swap the normal calipers for those?

How much horsepower can you obtain using stock rods, pistons, etc. on a 3sgte? Also, I see alot of people mentioning upgrading to forged internals. Are the 3sgte's forged from the factory?
