QUOTE (garin @ Mar 6, 2012 - 9:00 PM)  QUOTE (808celica @ Mar 7, 2012 - 1:44 AM) that is pretty much that one thing why i havent done the 3s yet, stinkin inflating gas prices. We got the highest in the whole nation, if I was bankin' more dough then I'd have no problem. My commute to work is about 25miles and its all mountain/beach area driving so there is NO way my foot is gonna go easy  25 miles? wow. the island is that big? lol! yeah another 25 more and im at Waikiki beach  I used to hold a cruise once a year I liked to call the Hawaii 500 but that was when I was Pres.  but yeah $4.38 is killing me  anywho yeah if you got some extra changes every paycheck to feed your needs with the 3s the sure. But you gotta also think what do you really mean by "worth it" This post has been edited by 808celica: Mar 7, 2012 - 2:10 AM -------------------- I don't normally drive fast, but when I do its on a curvy section of this island

I get quite average fuel consumption from the St205, around town they are terrible and on a open road when the foot is on the floor its quite bad. I do find on the motorway its very similiar to my gen 3 3sge though but stop and start and what not those 540cc injectors take the gas.
Btw we pay $2.40 a litre here so american fuel price aint that bad

Decided to do a 1mz. Going to buy a second celica first though. I'm just going to keep my st for pizza deliverys. Have a feeling things are going to need replaced soon though. Hit 270k today.

Too frequent stops you wouldn't have enough cool down times for your turbo. |

LoL, I'm going to take a wild guess and say that you've never owned a turbo car before. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
