Hey guys, my celica is abnormally quick. I shift at 5500 typically but I just changed the clutch and my car takes off like a bat out of hell. I know I was driving it slipping before and it makes a difference but my other car is a 1982 camaro with a 350 and 345 horsepower (net) under the hood. I bought my celica from some kid who had the engine rebuilt because he blew it up and it has maybe 20k on it now, i've only driven it maybe a thousand miles.but everyone talks about how slow these cars are stock, mines really not. Had a friend pull it apart and he said the car isn't stock and as far as he can tell. He owned one for years, a 5th gen though and he said it's nowhere close to his. But all I can tell it has is a cold air intake....what the hell could they have done when it was rebuilt?ported the heads maybe?

ill drive my Supra and OWN you ALL!!!!

I think your Celica could own most of us.

Not my rx

OH SNAP! I think that's a dare...

Momentai- It's entirely possible that your car has cams and the head has been ported/polished. Have you bad a chance to look around to see if you have a piggyback on the ECU?

Not yet, friend who replaced the clutch had a hell of a time getting the tranny out. pulled the whole engine to do it haha. He said it didn't look like his. What would a piggyback look like? When I got it I had the intention of a swap but the heads might be ported and polished with cams. could explain the 900-1k rpm idle and 1400 when cold (seriously high there). My celica should not have a higher idle than my camaro....just sayin.
