Yesterday i brought my self a 1994 gt four which has done 198kms, drives well apart from when its going over rough surfaces eg a gravel driveway the driver side front suspension knocks and the front radiator fans go are quite loud even when the engines cold. The celica has the doors with the 3 speakers and i haven't seen too many celica's like that. Which celica's came with the 3 speaker doors ?
Photos to come.. (: This post has been edited by wadeos: Dec 12, 2010 - 8:08 AM -------------------- |

Boosting smoke is normal for these cars, the factory ecu runs really rich under boost. Also with the amount of kms on your engine you could expect some of your oil to seep thru worn piston rings into your engine. It would be a good idea to check your intercooler and the output of the turbo for any oil residue as this would be a bad sign... -- other than that, the rest of the smokeyness is normal. Don't worry if the oil is just in your inlet manifold but not your intercooler or turbo, as this comes from the breathers. On another note I would disconnect the pipe feeding oil into your intake, cap it off on the intake pipe and minifilter off the factory oil catch container. I checked the turbo for any shaft play before seem to have none. Do the compressors blades look a bit worn ? ![]() I also checked the output of the turbo for oil residue, none. which is why I thought here, its one of the first place that come up on google when you search celica/forum or sell stickers on TM? or this "you've been 6GC'd" Stickers ? Where do i get a 6gc sticker lol ? I want one.. I recon it would be really cool if we had a New Zealand Celica meet, its just trying to get people know about it etc.. -------------------- |
