Hello,
Pretty much a lurker of the forum but thought I would share. After a very short period of no Gen 6 ownership I bought another GT4. It had pretty much the spec what I wanted to get my previous car to and was a very nice example so it made sense. I might get slated for buying a pre-modified car but I don't care to be honest! 1994 Celica ST205 GT4 JDM Spec: Engine etc: Garrett Ball bearing GT3071r kit (4" intake version) with Tial external wastegate, 3" downpipe and screamer pipe Apexi PFC and Commander Mapped by Ryan G from 2Bartuning Sard 800's Ported manifold 3" Japspeed stainless steel exhaust Blitz SBC -ID III -Spec R and Blitz power meter Innovate wideband sensor with afr gauge Walbro 255 fuel pump Straight intake with big K+N filter Magnecor KV85 8.5mm leads Evo 8 fmic Blitz bov Omex rev limiter/launch control operated from clutch pedal switch Suspension/brakes: BC coilovers Grooved Toyota front discs,ebc rear discs and yellow stuff pads front and rear Whiteline adjustable rear arb Hel brake hoses Cooling: RTP alloy radiator Slim fans with override switch TRD thermostat Turbo pre rad cooler Mocal oil cooler Mocal thermostatic sandwich plate Mocal braided hoses C-One cooling panel Swirl pot and header tank system Silicone hoses Interior: Momo steering wheel Momo alloy gear knob Alloy pedals White Dials switchable from green to blue Full leather interior Carbon fibre dash bits Exterior: Carbon fibre wind deflectors Carbon fibre door sills TRD side skirts and side spats De-tangoed Later lights Spoiler riser blocks Cat1 Alarm and immobiliser      |

Comment about pressure release. Actually, that is a very good point. Will someone more educated than I am care to exaplin if there is a good reason why I should not have a pressure release? At the moment the swirl pot wil purge air to the expansion tank....but the expansion tank has no breather (fixed cap, no over-run). So this has to be bad surely. Or am I missing something obvious?
Lots of snow over in the UK...I have to say I feel slightly smug in a 4x4 sports car which is actually very stable on the snow (as long as I don't boot it...need a lot of space to do that!) |
