Just a random check in from me. Still have my Celi, and she's now safely tucked in a garage again after a recent relocation to Fort Wayne, IN. Still being driven quite a bit but not sitting outside all the time anymore. That 2 years spent outside took a toll on it's paint unfortunately, but once the weather breaks and it warms up some I'm going to go over it with a polisher and clean it up good.........
Gratuitous shot to prove she's still around. ![]() ![]() -------------------- |

I disagree, your car is very deserving of Celica of the Month.

I disagree, your car is very deserving of Celica of the Month. ![]() Yep, still have it. Working wastegate bugs out.......I'm overpowering the spring even with the boost controller though I'm right at 200% spring pressure. It spikes to 17 PSI boost then quickly falls to about 14.5 PSI. Gotta find a bigger spring so I can get the 20-25lbs I'm wanting. Ran it last fall, best pass was 11.58@134 on a 2.0 short time, and blew a cold side coupler off 1 second before the traps according to my datalog, which cost me some time and certainly some MPH because the car fell on it's face. With a launch in the 1.6 range and a full pass I should be DEEEEEEEEP into the 10's and upper 9's with the boost issue fixed. -------------------- |
