thanks lagos
may be yes. or its wastegate. happens on high gears when start from low rpm till reaches full boost.

[manphibian]

Awesome car, i just hope you don't end up killing yourself and a bunch of other people.


Going that fast on public roads is idiotic!

[zero07]

Sh*t.

[DEATH]

Tufy damnit! You owe me a new pair of pants!
Much props and the deepest respect I can give based on tuning ability alone. Your car has always been an inspiration to me and others here.
Thanks so much for sharing. I'm fixing to send a link of this to everyone I know who has ever called Celicas slow cause not a damn one of them can touch this

[Sinyk]

I love the sound of your car. That's just awesome.

[Celicav]

Holy crap! You need to be entering that car in some kind of professional racing series. And man, you must have had a death grip on that steering wheel, but you looked so damn relaxed after reaching that top speed. I guess you are used to the beast by now lol.

[Valo666]

did you get that custom dogbox tranmission in that you were talkin about a year or so ago?? I remember after you started gettin into the high high HP range, you started to break your gearbox and were talkin about a straight cut or squential transmission for awhile there.

But holy hell..lol I want one now.

[DiP203]

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!

but

INSANE

go to a track be safe

[tomazws]

Beautiful sound!

[808celica]

DAYUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RisingSun1]

[goferris]

Firts of all sorry to post this video. just wanted to share
This road was something like highway in germany.

valo666 ; the sound you heard was custom dogbox tranmission. its shorter and just amazing.
i am an old man i would die with that car if i was younger

manphibian; some times you can drive slow but still dangeraous. i was relaxed because i was driving fast but save and i said ''ohh rev limit'' (i was suprised). don't worry, i dont drive that fast normally. just wanted malpaso to see the car.

i just sh!t my pants!!!

[malpaso]

Folks... first of all: Just for your information. I have talked to Tufy's sister few days ago and she told me he drives his celi only on races now. So only very uniquely you can see him driving his celi on public roads. So I was surprised... that means this ride was only for me and only because of me. So if you want to aim on someone here I am. I can guarantee Tufy is not an idiot and he would never drive his car dangerously.

Now... I have question for all moralists here: Are German people idiots? On German public highways is no speed limit!

I drove my celi there with speed about 220km/hr last year during on my way back home from PECM. Am I idiot as well? And I can tell you highway we drove on Cyprus is more save (better condition, less traffic) than during common day in Germany. So what is the difference?

That day was very special for me and only thanks to Tufy's hospitality and Recycle's will to be my driver. And I do not want that anyone would make Tufy feel bad because of that. This topic is only about to share... If you do not like it please do not post here.
thanks...

[azian_advanced]

how much do you charge for the ride?

Hi Martin, i'm not trying to make anyone feel bad, just felt as a moderator here i should say something.

I know Tufy is a great driver and was driving within his limits, but to answer your question, the difference between that road and Germany: On the Autobahn, the other drivers expect you to be driving that fast, on a normal highway... they don't.

It's more the uncontrollable factors that are the danger: other drivers reactions, a mechanical failure, or an object on the road that can easily cause massive problems at that speed.

But anyway, thanks for sharing the video, i just want what is imo the best celica in the world, and it's driver to stay in one piece

[x_itchy_b_x]

nice tufy!! thats fast! im only 10 mph behind you on that run
scary going that fast. nice vid.

[CelicaST_CALI]

prove it ^^

[azian_advanced]

let's not get carried away now...

[Rusty]

Wow

[black13]

And a daily driver too... holy hell.

[808celica]

[808celica]

now all we need is a small vid or pic with your car on a revolving table with bright lights and an opera singing to bring peace to the world


once again tufy Perfection

[lagos]

Boost really seems to hit harder once the surging stops.
What was your best 1/4mile in the car so far? It as to at least be mid 11s?

[presure2]

just to make this clear.

yes, tufy is special.

the dude has built by FAR one of the nicest celicas any of us will ever have the pleasure of seeing in action.

a bit of a "star" if i do say so myself. (ive had random people, not accosiated with the site in anyway, ask me if ive ever seen the vid of "this crazyyyy celica beating a supra")

so yea, we're NOT closing tufy's thread.
and yea. we WILL close anyone elses, so dont do it.

when you build a celica, that is pretty much known world wide, THEN we can talk about it.

/disscussion.

ohh and:

tufy:
simply AMAZING car man.

my fastest time was 10.47 while i was racing against an ariel atom at dragster 2 years ago.
my car is mapped at 2 bars now but i am still driving it at 1.5 bars boost.
i still have some small proplems (sequential shifter and that surge ect) with my car. if you noticed i skipped 4th gear in video. i hope to fix them soon, then lets see what happens at 2 bars
thanks a lot presure2

I know I'm bumping a 3+ year old topic here guys, and for that I am sorry... but does anyone know where I can see the video linked in the first post of this thread? Or what the password for the album on photobucket is? I think I've seen this video before (on Youtube?) but I wanted to have a look at it again. Is this the video where Tufy talks about the top speed being limited by the drag set up gearbox?

Thanks in advance and sorry again for necro-bumping this

[Rusty]

There are a number on youtube, but there is this thread which links to some

tufy's videos

[Malhar95]

whats the password, i wanna see

[Unicorn]

There are a number on youtube, but there is this thread which links to some

tufy's videos

Thanks for the link. I have seen all of the ones that are on Youtube, but this one as far as I can remember the one linked in this thread which is now passworded was all or mostly in-car footage of Tufy's car pulling to top speed (173-4 mph) and Tufy mentioning something about the dog box with short ratios restricting his top speed to that.

It's a 3 year old album, so obviously malpaso has put a password on it since this was posted. Was just wondering if he would let us have a little peek at it again

Sorry, I just realised was wrong here - It's Tufy's album, the video was shot by Malpaso. I wonder if a little PM to Tufy requesting a re-upload would be worthwhile? I really want to see it!

[Neon90424]

tufy has been inactive for about 2 years...I was reading his posts...that dog box thing is awesome...Frickin expensive though!

Has he really? I thought he still read the forums. I know he doesn't post much, but I'm pretty sure his profile says that he's still logged in occasionally.

Yep, that's what I thought! Malpaso... any chance you still have the video? I remember watching all the others and thinking this was the best one because it showed the interior of his car as well as (obviously) a top speed pull...

[OOBE]

Damn...I was all eager and got cockblocked by a password!

[Neon90424]

seems like most gt-4 owners hide their cars because they are to awesome for the public

[SwissFerdi]

Martin, what about posting that video directly into the thread, if you still have it? Seems too good to miss out on.

Nice videos of an amazing car! Wish I was there too.

But going through your videos on youtube I found one from PECM 2007 from Italy. It was great time, your car in different setup, mine aswell
