I'll take advantage of this and say hello as this is my first post in this forum. I recently acquired a GT-Four from 1999 randomly traded my 2003 celica Gt JDM ofcourse was a neat ride but too low gas mileage was good beat the **** out of the car and of course... wrong wheel drive :S... So I kept driving past this pretty GT Four and I decided to check it out the next day... My cars underside was beat to hell ( rocky roads speed bumps carter looked like muhamed ali punched it) He said No mechanics or the deals always go sour, sure what the hell my car was beat to **** and ate cans of oil. I tested it and sure for me it was like driving a missile. So now the details, I liked that it had a nice thick Aluminum KOYO racing radiator and a Cusco alloy strut brace and a sweet japanese roundish air intake and 57K kilometers on the Odo...the limited 300km/h TRD speedo so I was turned on by this and the next day I was drivin this gas guzzler home...No surprise it had problems....
So the damage is this blown turbo seals no idea of what the engine condition is my intake manifold and everything else is covered inside with oil... I came to the US and bought basically 2 grand worth in parts didnt have that much money so I had to compromise, Heres the list, try not to cringe. Im basically gonna slap all this **** together and see if it works... GODSPEED KKR 480 Twin scroll turbo ( says its 450HP capable I'm aiming at 350) 4 Iridium spark plugs heat range 7 HKS SSQV black limited edition BOV AEM Water/Meth Inj 5 Gallon tank (our gas aint so purdi) Ebay oil catch can Timing belt set with new water pump (dont need the water pump but taking it as insurance anyways) ACT 6 puc clutch disk ( stock clutch slips a bit under high rev launching) crappy chinese AFR narrow band digital clockything (just so it tells me Im not melting pistons 25mm ebay wheel spacers ebay electronic boost controller ebay n1 carbon fiber burnt tip muffler electric exhaust cut out from Raceland USA carbon fiber raiser blocks from hong kong and the normal GT four wing for 40$ off a local supra guy. cheap 25$ bishieclipse FCD Ill try to update once I get to Paraguay and slap all this stuff on, Should be fun to see the results...

Thank you guys. As of now Ive got 2 adapters but its going to be a pain we have to clock the turbo and curve the adapter to the manifold a bit. The mechanic checks the AFR with a wideband sensor thats what he told Me i will have a narrowband AFR in the cockpit just to make sure I am not going into the red with this. I probably wont do it WITHOUT water lol the whole point is to see how far I can go stock with magic Water and Alky..
Yeah my CT was pretty raped in japan it had pieces coming off the fins apparently, it was romped to the point where it was losin oil allover the place and putting it in my intake. And yes the Bay is a mess but that will change that AC hose is somewhat malleable and a pain in the ass the throttle cable is a long ass POS aswell these cars have their steering column changed by mediocre people in chile and I must say this one on the inside is pretty well done...not so good on the engine bay side but good enough that I still have A.C. I take short cuts because I have no job and no Money . I cant spend $ on a 2K$ turbo So I have to make ends meet with what I have. I'll shortcut the hell out of this until I find out where it works and where it doesnt. I break something its just another reason to get forgies and borrow money/ -------------------- |
