Long excursion and huge magnet, so for the size of circumference it is. Throw in a 21" competition unit.

No room for a 21 with the rear seats and strut bar, the box would probably take up the whole back half of the car.
I need to start building crossovers next |

Today I caught a glimpse of two dirty, filthy trannies kissing in my driveway. Right in plain site even had their parts hanging out for the world to see. So I looked closer and took a couple pics even got some close-ups of their nasty, grimy wholes where they put their shafts into what a mess. Here are a few pics I took:
 91 MR2 Turbo Trans  ST215 FWD LSD Trans  MR2 Open Diff  ST215 Limited Slip Diff  MR2 Bell Housing  ST215 Bell Housing  Wait what did you guys think I was talking about  Here are a couple pics of the 93+ MR2 Turbo LSD I also purchased:   My friend gave me a really good deal on the ST215 FWD transmission that is the reason I have both. So if anyone is interested the MR2 Transmission and the LSD unit are for sale. I am waiting on the remaining parts to arrive from Great Britain to make this plug-n-play for the 6th Gen. |

Pearl white would look good. So would pearl black or pearl blue.

Starfire Pearl is the color I had my wife's corolla painted, it's what they but on the Lexus RS It also has 3 coats of clear the middle coat is hiding hurricane red metallic flake. You can really notice except in the Twilight hours when the light is weird but when it pops it pops like nothing I've ever seen.
Possibly a dumb question but the center bar in the differential =LSD? I have 2 5speeds and they both have it, am I lucky or does that only apply to the E153? -------------------- 97 Celica GT liftback DD/ project

S54 is the opposite of the E153. A bar in in the S54 is open diff.

This I found to be the most accurate when comparing speedo to GPS read outs. 215/45 R17 what I'm running now. Pretty much the default 17" sports size, but is a bit large. I don't mind it except it is technically illegal here. Better would be 215/40R17, but much less choice. --------------------  SOLD :( 1997 ST204 Celica ZR -----> See it here on 6GC! 2013 October Celica of the Month XD Now: '00 NB8B Mazda MX5 -----> See it here in off topic! |

I'm running 225 40 r18 at the moment but Speedo seems like it's about 5%ish off so il keep that I'm mind as I'm dropping 1 size down.

The best my car has felt is on 195/50, although for the speedo to be correct it should be 195/55 or 205/50. -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]
