'lo all.

Suspect most of you know me from Celica.net. Figured I should probably get around to registering here as well. So, I have.

For those of you that don't know me, I'm the lucky owner of one of these....

Which does about 20mpg and creates enough noise to knock your house down. It will be even louder and handle a crap load better once this little lot go on.

Not shown; front shocks, TRD top mounts, TRD springs, Whiteline rear ARB. Also planned are new 17" Superleggras and a stage 1 organic clutch mated to a lightweight flywheel.

Trust me, you don't want to know how much. The cost of the stuff in the picture makes me want to cry.

In answer to other questions before we start.

Very fast.
No really, very very fast.
15psi. Decat should mean 17, and I may well have a boost creep issue as well because it's too free flow.
Very noisy.
Very grippy.
When I'm done, hopefully 300-320bhp on stock internals and turbo.
About 20mpg (UK gallons) on average. 30 on a run. 7 on a track. Yikes.
Probably 100 bucks to fill, and that will last 300-350 miles. If I'm not clogging it.
No, you can't have a go. Sorry.
Yes, a bird has crapped on the rear window in that photo.
Yes, I'm a lucky bastard.

What did I miss?

More pics and info if you follow the link in the sig.



So, hi. How is everyone?

It's always good to have more GT-Fours around here(even if it depresses all of us in the US.) wink.gif

By the way, your car is awesome! And it's gonna be so sweet with all those parts installed! biggrin.gif

Yeah, I'm a cocky little **** at times. You can just talk about gas prices and I'll run away again. And cry.

That was a very, very nice car indeed.

She has a habit of attracting Porsches for some reason. I've got a pic of a 1979 GT2 parked in front of it as well.

Somewhere......
