shopping list, stuff i bought already Options

So your trying to get 500hp out of the stock block and internals? Or did you already mod those?. Also your running a st205 correct. And how will the celica handle traction with more the 300hp?

like i said , 87mm forged weisco pistons, stock iron block, it is a 205 engine from mr2 not gt-4 , 3rd gen mr2 tranny, the car has stock lsd and iam getting drag radials for it.... it spun at 3rd gear when it was 295 whp on regular tires... hopfully the radials give me some traction. i remember jamasco's car spinning all the way down the track on slicks...

Damn man, you sure have money to spend.

I sent you a PM. I'll probably take the injectors too but we'll see what shipping comes out to. Turbos arent light.

definately not a winter car...
so even w/ LSD traction was an issue at 295? or is that with you punching through each gear?

Congrats on the purchases...

lets put it like this.... from a roll, if you floor it in 3rd gear... it begins to spin at 5krpm... peak power....

wont you have severe launching problems... are u gonna run slicks to reduce problems?

[Supersprynt]

You should consider real stiff rear suspension - to counteract the weight shift.

well, iam not gonna use slicks, but iam gonna use drag radials... which are normal street tires, which you can get very sticky by warming them up /burning out before you race... not as good as slicks, but good enough... and i have an electronic boost controller, which lets me start off at low boost then turn it up , usually during 3rd gear, to a higher boost level/ more power... basically i launch with 250whp and then half way , i increase it to 300 or now 500 whp...


iam also considering adjustable shocks so i can stiffen up the rear end.

225/45/17 , as far as sleeper.... the fmic and bov and rims give the car away, and after you whoop everyone's ass... your reputation kills the whole sleeper thing..
