Speedlines are NOT copies. I would actually much rather rock a set of Speedlines than TE-37's.


So if you don't like them I'll meet you in Vancouver and take 'em.

Nammer's car has white raiser blocks and the one in that video has black raiser blocks. They do look similar though. But they have the same rear lip and rear side window tint.. Looks like that could be the one.

Nammer, nice buy thumbsup.gif

Can you all feel the vibe? At least we are that much closer to getting a gt-4 or at least seeing one with binoculars over the canadian border.

Indeed it is. I got them to paint the raiser blocks white and leave the lettering black when they gave the car a fresh coat of paint and sanded out some surface rust. =D Thank!

Recaro confetti interior = great amounts of win. Pull the center cushion out and have it reupholstered with Recaro fabric, but do not have the confetti covered.

DO NOT run 91 octane in a JDM 3S-GTE _EVER_.

For best results use something as close to Jap spec 100 octane as possible, in my country that would be BP Ultimate 98.

You can get away with running 91 as a last resort, but your knock sensor will trigger major ignition retardation, you may even damage your engine. Once I ran out of gas parked on a hill and I had to walk home and use the 91 out of my fuel container for the lawn mower, I was able to start the engine and limp the car to the next gas station.

well I guess I won't be running 91 octane haha...don't want to damage my engine....if saving in the short term means spending on engine repairs in the long term then 94 octane it is haha..thanks




oh and one more thing....
does anyone know which of these part numbers is for the right side clear JDM high beam headlamp?

As found in the stickies:
Clear High Beams - These high beams are available in some Celicas overseas from 1996-on and they have a crystal clear lense. The part numbers are below.
81130-20050
81170-20050 <-- I think it's this one...

Just to clearify...it's the driver side highbeam for JDM celicas...and the passenger side highbeam for USDM celicas...

Much appreciated!

Does Canada use RON or MON ? I might be confused here but 91 is "regular unleaded" here, 95 is lower grade premium, 98 is premium and 100 is race fuel.

In Japan they use 100 octane equiv to what we call race fuel, You may have to do the conversion into your own system, but yeah you can get away with using 95, It's just not as responsive as 98 but it will work fine.

If your "91" is what we call 95 then forget what I've said.

PS. Don't even think of saving money on fuel, Nomatter what you get, If you want any fun out of your car it'll all be drinken up just as fast lol. This IS a gas guzzler, not an economy oriented FE engined car tongue.gif

Are you dealing with terra2imports? I have been communicating with one of their people for last couple of weeks. I may be throwing a gt-4 over the fence sometime this upcoming spring if you know what I mean.
