6G Celicas Forums

haha people always warned me about that but Ive never had a problem starting off on a hill.

The 86 Corolla GTS(and SR5) have early versions of the 4AGE, not the 4ALC that the regular Corolla got.

HP isn't everything... its the fun of RWD and owning a somewhat legend car. If you go to import shows... you can say "I own a 86" and people will go "yeah!" ... but if you go and say "I own a 6th gen celica" people go "thats nice"... I love my car, but its no legend - yet......

Trueno.. to my knowledge... just meant pop-up headlamps... otherwise its called a Levin. And yes... they had a early version of the 4AG engine, the same used in the 1st generation MR2's prior to 87. Coomer has a 20V AE101 4AG... they made many different models of this engine. Its sort of like the 4G63 in the Eclipse.. also in the Evo. The HP is off by 61 between the two though.

I thought the SR5 had the AE85 engine that only had 90 something HP because of the single overhead cam? Correct me if i'm wrong.

But back to the topic... heal-toe - I cant do it well in the Celi cause the accel pedal is too small and the break pedal is too big I'm trying though

Some of you are talking about using heel toe just to rev in between down changes.. double clutching.

I was referring to using it into and out of apexes to control the way the car is handling. There is a difference.


GOOOOOOOOO HACHI ROKU!!


my friend has one hehe.

yes heel toe is hard to due on a stock 6gc. Even with a big foot, I wear size 11 that doesn't even help at all unless you have some wide shoes. I did this little modification over the weekend and it works great! I'm probably going to buy some glue in the next couple of days because those zip ties will not hold up for much longer.

ya I know huh 6 years old damn. Ya I thought I'd share what I did over the weekend

Who wears black socks with tennis shoes?

*raises hand* lol

I like black socks because they don't appear as dirty!

haha no this pic was taken on sunday the day after oct 30th. I was wearing Halloween costume. I was the doll from Saw. So I had a black blazer, black dress pants, white shirt and a reddish bow tie. that's why!!

I heel and toe downshift all the time with no issues, I actually use the technique when I Autocross. The purpose of it is to be able to get into the car into the right gear for an upcoming corner without unsettling the car. If you downshift without rev-matching then the car lurches and unsettles the car a lot, this can ruin a good approach to a corner slowing you down and also may throw your apex off slowing you down even more. BTW, I think someone should put together a driving techniques thread if one doesn't already exist.

I actually think heel and toe in 6th gens is alot easier than majority cars out there, out of about 20 cars I've driven I love heel and toeing in my car.

I apologize if someone already said this but heel and toe is for smoothness also and is ALOT better on the car, it gets you faster and smoother out of a corner.

Can't heel and toe because its front wheel drive LOL.

common dude you must admit that the pedal is a little deep, I'm not the only person who has the opinion as well. I test drove my friends s2000 ap2 and that easier to heel toe than our stock celica pedal setup. But now with my little mod its as good as the s2000.

i have np in doing heel toe in both of my celicas. no need for mods.

euphoria, i dont get your point that you cant heel toe in a fwd.

its not a bad thing if i heel toe an auto is it? lol
I'm swapping in the spring so im just starting to get use to it

You don't have to heel toe an auto. Just use both feet

lmaoo truee, but i cant use two feet once i do my swap

If you can't use two feet, how're you gonna clutch? Lolol sorry, I'm a smart ass

you know what i mean lol
i can't use two feet to heel toe! i can only use one!

my left foot will be occupied with the clutch because they make a good couple...
and my right foot will be heeling and toeing with the brake and gas cause he's a playa like that haha

LOL that was good
