Slightly old news if you follow the forums in the UK.
Some background. My girl and I have 2 Celicas. Both 6th generation. Hers is seriously lowered, running 17" wheels, significant ice, full Veilside kit, full respray in toyota green, custom interior and a 50 shot of nitrous. It is the sensible car of the pair. Hers is an ST, which is 7A-FE powered. Not the most powerful engine in the world. Hence the N20. Unfortunately, if your piston rings aren't quite 100%, and a BMW M3 tries it on, and you're slightly unhinged, you reach for the little red switch. And this happens.   Oh dear. Cost me a new engine. -------------------- JDM ST205

[right][snapback]322947[/snapback][/right] Well this car was putting something like 170bhp to the front wheels. On gas from a roll in 3rd gear it was pretty rapid. And that's coming from someone who has a 270bhp daily driver. -------------------- JDM ST205
