Well as everyone should know by now, on May 12/3 I sold my Celica and I purchased a 2002 ST246 N-Edition Caldina in Japan.
Anyway, the car got to the compliance workshop last Tuesday and is in the final phases of the import process. A few shots of the car at the docks in Japan:   At the moment the car is waiting for our Government to make the Compliance Plate (A bit of metal that indicates the car is legally imported). Which may take 1-3 weeks... While that waits I am getting a few things fixed up so she should be sweet for delivery and roadworthy!

And the reason why I needed a daily is here
 I sent the car to the tuners for an e85 conversion, it came back a few days ago an I've been playing with it since It has a slight misfire at the moment and it's causing some stalling issues when stopped in Drive or Reverse, so I'll be heading back this week to get that sorted but otherwise the car is amazing. Here is a video of the Dyno run with the Low-Boost power: https://www.facebook.com/JustEngineManageme...?__mref=message The high boost actually makes less power as the TMIC is heat-soaking and causing the power to drop off. -------------------- ------------------------------| White '94 Celica | Bought 11/05/12 | Sold 12/05/15 |------------------------------ |
