Spotted this local to me on ebay and went to see it and fell in love
![]() Denim Blue,225bhp, 6 speed, full blue leather, 50,000 miles, MINT! ![]() ![]() They're not for everybody i know, but i love it and it's quite a lot quicker than the Celica, a lot torquier to. So why no GT-4 you may ask........ well........ i just felt i had done evrything i wanted to do to mine, and couldn't face starting again with a near-identical car.... Don't worry, i'll still stay on here, and anyway i still have the Celica until i can get what i want for it ![]() -------------------- |

nice, i just traded my 225 Roadster yesterday
![]() They are seriously nice cars, I want the TT 3.2 V6 S-Line now, it looks more agressive ![]() But for now my new baby is a Titanium gray Mazda RX8 GT, loving the car but not the 10 MPG!!! The audi gave me minimum 20MPG, but thank god its not my daily driver ![]() A few things to look for... Make sure you do the full timing belt job if you have 60,000 miles, audi originally thought it would make it to 110,000miles but they were wrong! Snapped timing belt = $6,000 new motor... If your front suspension starts to clunk or squeak, change the sway bar bushings, they only cost $16 but take about 4 hours to change out if its your first time... Change the haldex oil at least every 15-20K miles but alot of TT owners recommend every 10K miles, it costs A LOT but if you buy the special wrench you can do it for alot less. I really miss the power of the turbo and tuning is realatively inexpensive for big power!!! Now go throw some 18 inch BBS wheels and drop the car ![]() |

Thanks, i am getting the belt and water pump changed after christmas... Suspension seems sound, i'll get the haldex done next service. Really good condition, just a couple of small problems, the switch has gone on the drivers door so the light/buzzer doesn't come on if the door is opened. Got THIS today, it's awesome! ![]() Need to check all the hoses and stuff as there's an error code for Boost Pressure Control: Upper Limit Exceeded But yeah, loving it so far! Just grips forever with the 4WD ![]() -------------------- |

Yea mine was a mint 2001 as well and that switch thingy was intermittent on my passenger door as well
![]() "Just grips forever with the 4WD" ------------>I KNOW!!! i never found a situation where it would loose grip, i was SO used to it that I almost ran my rx8 into a curb due to understeer from loose gravel ![]() I'll get another TT when i finish school next year, once practicallity is not an issue ![]() and that link doesn't take me to a specific product what did you get??? O AND YOU NEED A NEW N75 VALVE most likely, as it controlls the boost level.. http://www.mjmautohaus.com/catalog/product...roducts_id=1721 |

That liquid guage has to be one of the most EPIC inventions ever!!!! if you noticed, it tells you N75 positioning, so when you get it installed you can see if it is indeed getting stuck

Thanks man, yeah it was super cheap so i had to get it!
I'm gonna miss the Celi (if it ever sells). Took it out for a blast today to keep the battery ticking over. It's still a great car. Feels a bit slower now, but still a real head-turner. More so than the Audi (until i start modding) ![]() -------------------- |

*drool*
Those TTs have a lot more room than you'd think. I used to be a driver for a collision center in College Park and I drove a lot of Audi's. TTs I could actually fit in! With me being a 6' 240lb dude I need the room. lol Nice buy! Those are so much fun to drive! -------------------- 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STi 1974 Datsun 260Z 1997 Subaru Legacy L Wagon Kind of missin' my Celica GT! Hit me up if you're ever in my area. I'm always down for a meet. |

Great choice, the TT is an excellent drivers car. ![]() Any plans for it? Thanks ![]() I really like the look of it, so not much to do really. Just lower, and get some 18's when i have some cash... Just spending a bit now getting everything 100%, cambelt and water pump and such... Have it re-mapped to 265BHP so it's plenty quick enough now ![]() -------------------- |

its more agile in the corners within its limit, but takeoff is gutless as you have to get past 4K rpm for the aux intake ports to open up, but fun and ALOT more comfortable with the softer suade buckets, but no seat warmers
