6G Celicas Forums

The carbon hood is pretty sweet, IMO i like it better on dark cars eg. Black

But hell it looks good, and the idea of a thin coat of paint sounds good to!

But bro we need more pics!

Very nice, the kit is pretty sweet and looks extra glossy in black!

Very nice, i especially love the bonnet!



Custom work at its best!

Major racing teams remove the head lamp assembly and replace it with a CAI, it is a pretty normal thing to do on track cars, just have to ensure all other stuf A/F etc.. adjusted, and dont drive at Night!

Just had a look at the stock stats on the 3SGE engine, top speed is 139mph then rev limiter kicks in.

Hmm, you guys seem to have very low top speeds.

I hit 125mph Ish easily in mine with still quite a bit left, i reckon will take it to 130+mph with long enougth road

Oh yeah the higher top speed ive got might be due to the 3SGE engine. I think the rev limiter cuts the top speed to around 135mph though thats whats on the car stats anyhow.

DOGGY has the S-AFC helped with perfromance, thinking of purchasing one myself.

Fensport are a good call for toyota owners in the UK, ive had a few things off them, good service and help.

I have an imported Celica GT, in the UK with the 3SGE engine, which by the way lets have a look at that beutiful engine....heehee



Im not too sure what the standard engine was for UK built celicas, but i have been told the imported models have a bit more bhp than the UK ones, this is reflected in the insurance!

Anyhows if you have the same engine as above, congrats!
I have a blitz intake on it which i think has helped a little, and a S/S exhaust, although wish i went for a branded one now as the pipe is a little crushed bent so avoid people like powerflow!

Congrats on the new car anyhow!

I like the front, big air dam.

Check the g-corp web site, some mad ass people carriers!

At last ive took some pics of my Blitz intake.

Will be going CAI soon!



It sounds amazing at high revs, what you think?

That pic with the Blitz front painted, looks pretty good.
Looks like that guy had the front moulded to the fenders.

Still not convinced on moulding the sides, especially as some day you may want to remove the front bumper, but looks good

When you bend a pipe using a crush style machine the diameter of the pipe will vary, so at the bend due to the crushing process the diameter of the pipe will become smaller hence restricting the air flow.

Now mandrel pipe bending, im not too sure on the process, but the result is a piping bent to what ever required, whilst maintaining the original desire diameter of piping throught out, including on bends, thus retaining the desired free flow of the pipe.

If you get me, i hope ive explained it clearly, but anyhow, thats pipes!

How do you retard your timing ? And what does this mean?

That looks so cool! Like the rear especially!

So what do you guys do if you need to remove the front bumper then.

Cos am i right in thinking to remove even the headlamps you need to remove the front bumper, let alone adding a nice intercooler when doing the 3s-GTE swap

Congrats, good luck with the install let us know how it goes.

0reo were do you get all this time to find this stuff

Remmeber to post pics when your done!

Id like to see the supra rear parts on the celica!

Any thing is possible, if you have a spare celica front bumper, you could go to a good body shop and they could cut the Supra front up to fit onto the original celica front and then try to mould it all in and hopefully fit it okay.

There are a lot of UK kids buying copy veilside bumpers over here and making them fit european cars, so cant see any difference in you doing it to fit a celica, just loadsa work involved!

I am slightly surprised that on average you guys shift at 4K-5K when aggresive driving.

Daily Driving shift around 3k (Try to save money on petrol, UK prices are scandalous! )

Aggressive driving shift around 6K+, i have gone more hit the rev limiter alot to! (Need to get a shift light fitted!!! )

I have the 3SGE engine if that makes a differance.

With the 16 valve engines you dont really find any pulling power untill youve hit 4K rpm.

So theres no way to say mould the front in, then say if you had to take the front bumper of take it of as a whole, including the fenders, and then fit it back on once done.

Right just want to double check something.

If you mould a front bumper to the fenders, eg. The Blitz Front Bumper to the fenders on each side.

Will this mean the front bumper will not be removable in the future, after the moulding has taken place, or is there a way around it?
