Hey, about a week ago i traded my old car (a twin turbo gto) for my SS-II celica, Its silver has a aftermarket exhaust, JDM tails and so on, theres a couple of things wrong with it, a side panels dented in, and the roof and hood have some sunfade, all in all its not a bad car and will get those thing fixed up soon.
Will post some pics up soon

hey welcome
u traded a gto for an ss-ii? hope u got a crap load of cash from the trade aswell?
what kinda gas milage do u get?
if ur also get ****ty performance u might need new plugs and a new air cleaner,
are u using the aircon? if so then its normal to drink alot of petrol

I only got 1.1k with the trade, i didnt really want to do it but the gto was costing me way too much (over 4k within 6 months)
I get about 60k's out of 20 bucks
I get ok performance, considering its only a 2liter, for some reason theres quite a bit of power about 5000 rpm and i dont know why.
and na i dont use the aircon at all.

How much fuel is $20 worth? But yeah just do a tune up, spark plugs, leads, dizzy cap, rotor and fuel filter.

Auto or manual? I get between 90 - 110kms on my 2.2 manual celi at the moment with these AWFUL gas prices. I have a sr20de primera which is auto, get around 60 - 70kms off 20$ but it has some problems

3s-ge motor, 177hp... a very large chunk of that power is concentrated between the 5000-7000 range, thats when the engine breathes best with the long cam timing duration and the acis dual stage plenum is operating on the short path.
