well guys... that just about does it for me... there i was at the spot last saturday and watching people line up and take off is fun and everything, so i decide to join in on the fun, against another 6gc (lo and behold!) the guy that owns it says it was sold to him by his cousin ( a guy on here by the name of psycho or psyko something) i know the guy, and i start telling him about 6gc and everything...

god...2 much typing...MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT:

line up with the car
1 get spanked.....TWICE....REALLY BAD!!!
2 get strange looks and laughed at...=humiliation
3 wonder why in the hell i got beat so bad
4 go talk to the guy that drove and find out he's been drinking and eating shooms!
5 wonder why in the hell the owner let him drive his celica like that (owner is a pal of mine)
6 look under the hood and find out its A GOD #%#%#%^# ST as well!! but a stick shift
7 ride home considered SERIOUSLY selling my car.

/* insert extremely long rant */

This won't help matters any, but the 110hp rating on the ST is the rating at the crankshaft. I'm not sure about the Civics, but if they're putting 106 to the wheels, then they're slightly more powerful than an ST. But either way, it's a Honda.

i never said my celi didnt have potential. i was complainingabout getting spanked by another st (mostly) im perfectly aware of the platforms and the requirements to get a fast celi. i was just bitchin and moaning....one of my famous rants... although i forgot about the 4a...thanx man...


thanks for the input! i appreciate ur pride man!!!

I've had my Celica for... Christ, nearly 4 years. Check my mod list in my profile, it's nothing fancy. Its got dings, dents, paint chips, an oil leak, and has had a deer crash into the rear passenger quarter panel, and been slammed by an 80's-model Buick. It's nothing beautiful. Even more reasons why you'll rarely see a picture of my car from the passenger side.

But hey, I still love my car. I'm praying it lasts until I finish college and find a good job, so I can finally do the things I've wanted to do to it. Even if it does go kaplooey before then, I'll still keep it and fix it up later on.

Point is, I only wish my car had the aesthetics that your's does. Mine is all wheels and the purdy projectors. But I do have some killer NGK plug wires. They're blue. Anything blue adds 350 WHP. And my valve cover is nearly finished being polished, so there's another 850,000 WHP. I've driven plenty of cars, and rode in several that nearly broke my neck during acceleration, but I'm not jealous. Just enjoy the ride.

Addition: I drove a 1986 Pontiac Firebird with a 2.8l V6 before I bought the Celica. Going from that to the Celica was like trading in a tank for a dune buggy.
