Hello....My brother its been a member of 6gc.net and i like very much the site and i`m watching almost all the topics.My brother has Celica 96 SSII JDM Specs imported from Japan.My first car was a 94 Honda Prelude 2.2 Vtec JDM with A LOT of mods and my current car is a 97 Subaru WRX JDM.I`m planning to get a 99 CELICA SSIII VVT-i JDM those days(i recently blow up my WRX Engine) and i`m looking for a reliable car like Celica.I found 99 Celica SSIII and i will check it again at tomorrow and i want to ask if somebody can compare it with Honda RSX or ever race one RSX.

Thank you very much smile.gif smile.gif rolleyes.gif

I only have HKS SSQBV ,SARD Air filter and Greddy PE Catback Exchaust nothing more and i was pushing the WRX only until 6000RPM NOT MORE,never.My prelude was hitting 9600 and sometimes 9800 RPM(with Skunk2 camshafts and valvetrain upgrade) but stock was running at 7800RPM and was fine for 5 years and believe me i was driving this car like mad i upgrade everything on it,and also my brother`s Celica SS2 i`m pushing it almost until 7000RPM and its perfect but listen this, i was thinking to keep the WRX and upgrade the stroker kit with JUN and make it 2.2 but what for?Lets say it i`ll keep working for 12 months?18 months without problem?I dont think so,everybody tha gots WRX its trying to sell it beacuse if they dont have problems with engines they have with gearbox.I know about the GT4 and an import dealer near to my town he is selling one(white color) with body kit,the car its a beauty but what is worrying me its the Turbo.Something else that its worrying me about the Celica is that you cannot find easy aftermarket performance parts like the Hondas or WRX what do you think about that?This is worrying me beacuse i love to upgrade my cars for some extra hp.How much do you think i can push the SSIII?Is there ECUs or camshafts?What you suggest?
