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
Blitz Spec NUR Exhaust, somewhere over $1000 Needing another one 18000 miles later, bloody annoying. |

If it did that on a 50 shot, that engine was **** to begin with. Or your girl just sprayed way too much.
All naysayers- Nitrous on a celi- faster then your celi -------------------- NASA/SCCA RX-7....currently under the knife
