Deep down I wish I could've swapped the celica, but this thing is pretty fun.

Story:
Picked the car up in September of 07, with "engine problem."




I tried to get the car running for a couple days but decided it wasn't worth the money or time to figure out what was wrong with it. So it sat for a while before I had some time to start ripping it apart.



During tear down I figured out why it had "engine problems"...

At least I made a crank puppy out of it


Over the next couple months I picked up a rebuilt 6 bolt motor and some other goodies. The car also just kinda sat there most of the winter because of no real time to work on it.





Finally got things all put back together about a month ago.


Ready for the first test drive

After:

Then it was off to get tuned on some e85.


Then calling in sick to go race it the day after getting it tuned.




11.7@126.

I think I really need a driver mod

Know its no swapped celica but I think its decently quick for what it is.

Plans for winter:
1. Get some slicks
2. Boost-a-pump (was running out of fuel with my single pump)
3. Dual valve springs
4. re-tune and hope for 500 on a dd dyno
5. make it look decent if I have any extra spare money

low 12's in an RSX? Not bad.

Yea its really nice, he's the one that made me want to try and go fast. Washed my car the other day with him and it's just too damn nice

I like it a lot.

Thank ya sir.

you mean high 11's on a GSR

good stuff, one of my friend lost his license in one of these, he built the engine while non licensed and got his license back a couple months ago, I think his has ~ 480 at the wheels, but he hasn't taken it to the 1/4 yet.

11's on a gsr?
Having a lot of power under your right foot really does make you become responsible. 480 to the wheels on what kind of dyno and what kind of turbo setup?
