Recently ive had a gt2876, apexi PFC, walbro pump, sard 800cc injectors, a custom 3" full exhaust system, and i made a custom FMIC biggrin.gif setup at a safe 325bhp and 330lb/ft torque @1 bar until i get the forged rebuild wink.gif

my mates black gt is running 203bhp and runs 1/4 mile in 13.7... not bad for a 1.3L laugh.gif

sorry... but what is the 7gc GTS? kindasad.gif

Over here in the UK we have 2 models,

140
190

which relates to the bhp.

All 7gc celica's are very slow compared to my 6gc biggrin.gif



Also compared to mine! But in Europe we have the 3S-GE GT 175 bhp, which is even faster as the 192 bhp T-sport version of the 7gc, and I believe the 3S-GE engine never made it to America due to emission issues.
However I do like the front look of the 7th gen, but overall I believe the looks of the 6th gen are much,much better smile.gif


Yeah we have the 175bhp 3s-ge engine in the 6gc GT over here aswell... but the 0-60 is quicker on the 190/t-sport that the 175bhp GT.

Looks very nice.. lowered it will look even better. Very unique colour, ive never seen a celica like it.

I find it strange on here as my 1st thoughts are 'sell it and buy a GT4' but i keep forgetting you cant buy them in America.

Is it really expensive to do a full conversion.. ie. 3sgte + AWD + exterior?

Very nice GT-4. I've seen other stock GT-4s with unpainted raiser blocks. It seems pretty common, so I was thinking, Is it like that from the factory, or is it just something some people haven't got around to yet? Either way the car looks great. The GT was sweet too, I love black cars. You say you're going to find your BHP on a "rolling road"? That's a neat term, I like it. Around here most people call them a "dyno". When you get your numbers, post them up, I'm anxious to see them.

Nice cars! bowdown.gif thumbsup.gif


I think rolling road must just be an english thing then tongue.gif

Got my results which im not very happy with... 234.1bhp @ just below 1.0bar

Result showed great mid range power but then losing peak power due to "rich fuel mixtures" mad.gif

This will be resolved when i get my Apexi Power FC ECU.

frown.gif i had no idea it was that hard to buy one!! Why cant you import them from Japan? There are always at least 5 for sale locally (within 20miles) over here kindasad.gif



because of customs laws. they wont let you import an entire car. but we can import one thats been cut in half (a front clip) and use that for its motor, since customs cosiders that "car parts". thats what swapers like me and a few other ones did. then we swap that motor over to our fwd celicas and have a car thats 2x the power of what it used to be.

there were maybe around 1-5 (that we know of) real GT4s that made it into america, because their owners found loop holes in the laws or paid lots of money to make happen.


I never knew you couldnt import entire cars kindasad.gif Whats traction like with fwd and a gt4 engine?

Welcome. Got any plans for that beast?


Performance
-Engine rebuild with forged internals
-Apexi Power FC ECU
-td06 turbo running 1.5bar
-And the other small bits needed


Forged internals? Are planning more then 400whp? IN that case, that list better be a bit bigger! : )


Thats why i said "And the other small bits needed" biggrin.gif

Im just to lazy to list them all tongue.gif

I have just joined this club and already i have noticed A LOT of GT4 replicas. I am a member of 3 celica clubs in England and before today i have only ever seen 1 replica GT4.

How come so many people have replicas in America? Is it somethin to do with insurance ???? kindasad.gif
