hey guys haven't been here in quite some time, u can blame it on my new project im doing:P
  its an 86 RX7As for my celi, i need to work on it as well because i went to the track for the first time last night and well i was like "  ".i want to know why my GT ran a best of 17.588@78.63 and a constant 17.7@78.9? I mean, I lost to an ST(no offense to you all) which ran 17.124@79.44. i still had fun though, it being my first time there.(with good reason, the track is about 40-50 miles from my house), the heat probable affected my car too, i was driving around for about 3 hours before i even decided to go, and we all know how heat affects our celi's. I did beat a sunfire:P wich ran about 19 seconds, and got 2 out of 3 against a yellow neon that my friend has. well gotta go. |

you might have lost to the ST because of the gearing

still, guys its a GT for crying out loud!
 my mods are intake, full exaust, removed cat-converters, performance-re-grind cams, and i lightend it about 100 lbs. i shift my auto on command as well. my take off is also much better but my dumb 3rd gear is powerless...well guess its time for turbo  .

Please tell me an LS1 is going in that FC. If you're not going to, give it to me and I'll throw one in there.....course I doubt you'll get your car back after that

no LS1 for now
, im just gonna do basic mods for now cuz i want to get the car repainted and get wheels, etc. So far i made one of my intakes for it, ordered some NGK plugs, and getting new exauhst this week. After that im gonna get rid of all the engine parasites (smog air pump, cat converters, possibly A/C).As for the celica, it was a bad night, once the engine is hot its sluggish, its much faster when its cooler.
