Here's a very old speedo video after I completed the silvertop swap. This was recorded on a road with a slight uphill BTW. The celica is all stock, no modifications has been done to it.

Yes, it may not be as powerful as 3s or v6 engine, but it's a good improvement over the 7a. Also, with the new free flowing intake filter, improved exhaust, and replacing the pulleys, responsiveness and acceleration improved and the car has a bit more top end power in the higher RPMs. I'll try to make another vid to see the difference from then and now

Very nice vid you have up there!
look forward to your new vid that is with free flowing intake filter, exhaust, and new pulleys in your silvertop in action biggrin.gif
i just love the 4AGE N/A sounds when you rev it up to 7500rpm when it was stock tongue.gif
