6G Celicas Forums

I like it, its very soothing to drive actually. off lift above 2000 rpm its got way more power than the 7afe geo, but from a dead stop just stomping the pedal I think that the geo would take it for the first few feet. just does not have the instant off idle torque on tap.

speaking of the geo, i took it on a road trip to normal il for a weekend gathering of eclipse and galant folks. from a dead stop with a brake torque i took a diesel dually turbo cummins from the line to 35-40mph where it proceeded to blow past me and leave me in a cloud of black smoke. that was fun!


but back to the celi, cleaned the filthy maf, new plugs, aired tires to correct pressures, took it for a cruise to get the woman a bite to eat. i love to drive it! its great. easy and relaxing.

Hey man watch how u phrase stuff on here. Mods will assume u were street raceing and thats not aloud on this site. Might wanna reword ur last.

As for the rest of u baggin on him for his new Celi, Chill out. 2000 celi as a DD is quite impressive. Considering most DDs are ur standard beater.

SO HATERS' LAY OFF THE MAN!!!!!!!!

haha, the speed limit on vetrans parkway is 50, we both stopped at 45 and it turns out he wasnt on it at all really. that truck is awesome, it can smoke all 4 rear tires with ease and run a pretty impressive 1/4 mile as well.

My brother has a 2001 GTS with leather, MT, and all the other goodies. I drove it a couple times. Once that VVI or VVTI kicks in, it really hauls A$$! You'll love it. I had to do quite a bit to my 96 Celica GT and he's still faster than me.

i really don't care if i'm faster or slower than car X or car Y, all i care is that I enjoy driving it and that I enjoy what i do do to it to make it more to my liking.

if you look at the name of the thread "not one of your ****ty ones" i can hate all i want cause he is hating on this site

it was all in jest guys, don't get soo wound up. look what i said immediately about the new car too!



jeeze, some of you people...just can't take a joke.

What is this crap!!! I see no pictures!!!!!!!!!!!

and there will be none, its mythical. i has a big horn that grows out of the front and prances around on hooves. shhhh






nah, its dirty as hell, has water in one head light, and some stone chips. i'll get pics once it looks good, everyone has seen a stock black 2000 GTS with some stone chips i'm sure. maybe a few shots when its got its tires on or something. the woman is going to get me a new headliner as she refuses to ride in a car with such an ugly factory headliner, she says it makes the car look like a cheap rental car

agreed some people really cant take a joke

nice pick up, way better than the 6th gen

and then it rained :rofl:

im sorry but that rainbow pic does not do you OR the car justice. gay pride?

lol. thats there because it rained and double rainbows aren't too common. i left my camera in the car so thats all i could get of the rainstorm once it passed.

...you mean VVTL-i. If its the 1ZZ its a VVTi, if its the 2ZZ like in the GT-S 7th Gens, its a VVTL-i. Its bascially Toyotas refined version of VTEC. the "L" stands for "lift".

It's a rainbow man, they are cool to see.... Glad he is happy with is car, but to compare the newer celica to the old ones.... nah... Not to offend anyone, but lots of people agree the 7th gen is more suitable for a chick than a man. So in all fairness, since I have what he called an "Old crappy celica", I am allowed to tell this man his 7th gen is a total chick car.

x2!!!


ha jp, but really.

yep, chick car. don't care. it'll spank most stock 6th gens, probably even give a 5spd GT a good run, the auto's still put down 140 to the wheels stock. handles and brakes better too in stock trim.


but a well done 6th gen looks alot sexier than a 7th gen ever will, however i'm a function over form kind of guy.

Agreed that they're chick cars...I'll take your rims and your steering wheel, but that's about it. kthx.
