Well guy and girls - i can proudly present another project witch i will try to document / write-up / expain to a smallest details as posible. The project is install of a Turbo kit to a Martin (malpaso) 96' ST celica.
Works begin tomorow - so i will try to write up every single day of work i will be spending on his car, all the jobs what was done, and what things are installed and WHY they are installed + how they work and etc. Hoping to make this write up to be usefull to a people who will be doing the same thing later, and for the people to understand better how things work and etc. Keep and eye on this topic - cuz it will have lots of info and pics in the long run ![]() As for now - Martin celica is securly standing in my yeard - and Martin is traveling back home with the bus (20h drive oh man.... ![]() ![]() Romas -------------------- Ex celica owner - just a guy from other side of the pond...

Well - tomorow is the day when everything starts. First thing from early morning - Martin's Celica will take a trip of 60miles to get the Leak Down test done and to see what we have inside of his 7A. Engine from outside seem a bit too oil'y, but this might be cuz our little friend removed the Valve cover for painting and after removal it leaks - so valve cover gaskets are already ordered
![]() If leak down test will show good results - saturday works will be started.. So lets all pray for his engine - cuz if no good news - i will have to source the long block of the 7A for a quick change up - cuz i do have the perfect 7A head with only 4K km on it... So tomorow first info will be posted, and first pics will come up ![]() -------------------- Ex celica owner - just a guy from other side of the pond...
