Hmmm....It really is a weird thing happening, logic would say that the exact opposite of what's happening should be what's happening. I would see if turning the blower fan on and off has any effect on it (ie. when the fan is turned off, the needle goes back down, that would be the only electrical ...

Hmmm.....Those 22-RE's are pretty durable motors, i wouldn't worry too much. Does the gauge stay up, or go back down after a while? Also, how quickly does the gauge go up after the knob is turned, instantly or does it take time. My guess would be something to do with the headgasket replacment, but i ...

Fortunately for me, i learned a few things when i put a GT-Four (JDM All-Trac) motor in my FWD Celica :roll: . The new turbo is now on the All-Trac and i am buttoning the rest of the things up. For $2850, even with a dent and a blown turbo i couldn't say no. It also came with a few goodies (S-AFC II ...

Thanks for all the responses guys, i was honestly expecting a few "All-Trac, what the hell is that?". I do miss my Legacy a little (especially after taking the turbo out of the All-Trac today :shock: ), but i know my brother will love it, even though it isn't exactly what he was looking for at the ...

This all started this week. I was looking through the buying and selling section of Celica.net for a 3 piece spoiler for my Celica when I found it...A 1991 Toyota Celica All-Trac. It was white, had a dent behind the driver's door and a blown turbo. The price was right though. Today i finally got the ...

Something like 350 Toyota 2000GTs were made and of all the consours and vintage races I've been to I've only seen 1. That's the closest example I can think of off the top of my head to prove a point.

Steve

You've SEEN one? :shock:

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm...........2000 GT...........Glglhhhlglglhggglhhh ...

Like i said, bring all your Legacys over here, and i'll have some fun with you all (except maybe kelley's and rsstiboy). Of course, I never said i would use MY legacy....or even a subaru for that matter.......

Seriously though, i smell a rematch coming up between you too soon

I really don't think theose numbers can be right. I have seen 5 Turbos including one in a junkyard and not including other members here. I think of it this way, i have had my Celica for almost 5 years, and in that time i have seen 3 All-Trac Celicas (2500 total were imported here). Trust me, i ...

You guys need to bring this down to State College next time. I want to play too .

I would have to agree that the TDO4 will push more air above than the VF-10/11. I still want to see a compressor map for a TDO4 before i jump on one of the bandwagons (ie. whether its a good upgrade or not). I for one am going to seriously look into it though. I have been thinking that the seals are ...

The only problem i see about using a different MAF would be the fact that the values may be different. Lets say that 200g/s on our stock MAF translates roughly to 4.5volts. Ok, now say you swap a z32 MAF into your car and try to run it without any sort of "translation" equipment. Maybe the z32 MAF ...

At this track, the launching was particularly hard, I think that had quite a bit to do with the times they were getting. The staging area was on an angle so that the cars would roll back while you were waiting for the green light. Other than that, it was a blast. It was especially good to get away ...

oh i will. I just checked the radar, if it hasn't already, the rain should be stopping at the track momentarily.

Its not too bad in S.C. I just gotta throw my clothes in the dryer and i'll be headin up to the track.

So this is still going on? I assumed that it would be rained out. Hopefully my dad found someone to go to the PSU game with tomorrow, I really want to go to the Shootout.

Well, i guess you guys wouldn't like the hood on my Celica, or the wing on my Legacy. Actually, they're both temporary because i can't afford to get them painted right now. IMHO, i like the olive drab color idea. Don't worry about what other people think though, do what YOU like.

Matt, I should be out in Williamsport sometime friday evening. I might stay with one of my friends there that night, but i haven't talked to him yet. If not, i may either drive back to State College, or stay with you guys if you don't mind another person there. I can't wait, this sounds like its ...

Matt, what time would you like people to be at your house? Should we bring anything? I'd love to stop up and see some of you guys, as well as look at a few other turbos before the meet. Let me know, i'd be more than willing to bring some food and wrenches over.

Hey everyone, i finally got the old clutch in my Legacy replaced for a ACT Street kit, and I think i may have found the reason why the old one went bad in the first place. I have noticed that whenever the car is cold, the ACT clutch is really easy to push in, but gets harder as the car gets hot ...

I'd say you could stay at my house at Penn State, but i think i will only be there for friday late night and saturday. What time is breakfast?

This is still going on right? I am going to be able to make it I think. I need to take some stuff up to Penn State for the school year anyway, and williamsport is only an hour further down the road....Better make that 2 hours because i WILL get lost. I am cursed when it comes to finding my way ...

I'm also in engineering and i can say that Calc 1 was the easiest math i took in college. Calc II and higher are stupid hard unless you take the time to really understand the material. I'm just glad that i got them all over with, i find that not too much more than algebra and trig is used in most of ...

I've had the IC-TB connector blow off a few times (makes me feel like a DSM owner ) but if you really crank it down and make sure it stays tight you shouldn't have a problem. Nice setup, I love the BOV. I think its venting to atmo. right? Are you having any driveability problems?

BAC, i'm feeling the same 9 psi kick that you do, it only seems to happen sometimes though. As for wiring the FCD under the hood, i can send you a pic of my setup if you want, i didn't feel like trying to find the wires under the dash when i installed mine. I know it gets hotter under the hood than ...

My plastic 900 IC is so crammed in there that it actually dented the lip above the engine bay on the firewall. I don't think it could fit in any other way, but now that its dented it seems to be held in there better, and doesn't hit the firewall anymore, so i'm just going to keep it the way it is.
