Hello eveyone. Just wondering if the celicas came equipped with a hood liner/insulater. I noticed when it rained today smoke/steam forming on the hood with the water drops.
Thanks! -------------------- '99 Convertible

Mr. E:
I get that too (ST185 3s) although I'd think the ST205 would be better since you have the water pump - do you have that constantly running? If not thats an easy mod. This post has been edited by Supersprynt: Nov 22, 2004 - 11:17 AM -------------------- |

My 94 GT had a liner under the hood... thought about modifying it for the new hood, but decided against it.

I pulled my liner off. The lady that had it before me had the valve cover seal missing, oil leaked on the belts, and was flung up to the liner and the liner was soaked in oil.

My 97 SSI has one, I thought it was stock as with the folding mirrors,
guess it keeps the engine noise down |

the liner is actually a flame retardent blanket. incase your engine catchs fire, the blanket drops over the engine and suppress it. but i didnt have one either. 96 st

It's also to keep the heat off the hood so it doesnt own your paint. I ripped mine off tho, they look tacky i think

i get the heat coming out of my vent too!
Supersprynt, the vent sits over the exhaust heat shied and tubo, so it really dosnt have anything to do with the intercooler. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

Thanks for the replys! So it looks like earlier GTs got them.
The engine noise doesn't bother me, it's the paint I'm worried about. I just bought the car about a month ago and after washing it a couple of times, the paint is very dull on the hood only. I waxed a corner of the hood and it was all better so hopefully that will restore the gloss. -------------------- '99 Convertible
