Sparky Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Absoloutely Gorgeous mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EarL Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Really nice mate. The ST205 has, what is basically an MR2 Revision 3 motor. Not the strongest block, but will see you well into the low 12's without major surgery, and should be capable of running 18psi through the CT20b all the way to the redline.If I could suggest anything to improve performance, it would be, cooling, cooling and more cooling!Get yourself a real decent FMIC. The one you have doesn't look to big (but it's a good start).The rest of it looks well sweet mate. Bet you're well chuffed.EarL. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alena Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 haha i thought the topic said "GTA4 has arrived" i was like "ooh i didnt think that was due til september!" very nice car though, i normally don't like the old celicas (the new ones are girly enough for me lol) but i do like this one. very nice! that intercooler looks well cute Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottishcruiser Posted September 12, 2006 Author Share Posted September 12, 2006 Joz the rims are minted Nice and Lightweight..Graeme of course I can, still not fully boosting though..EarL - Runnign a CT26 Hybrid (Stage 1) and will be runnign 1.2bar when I get the emanage etc after xmas.. FMIC is bang on, even got a custom side inlet manifold. ST205's producing 400hp+ dont have either so im special.. LOLTo say teh least teh previous owner knows his shite. Hes got a 470hp beast of a ST205 and this was his wifes .. Hes the fella who tuned my starlet as well as KIZ, LeeCarmicahels etc.. Think it ran 13's when it had duff ct20b and managed 276bhp also :lol: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Raffi Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Thats a really nice car!!!I want one, someday...Where are your heater controls? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lobotomy Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Blame stuart for the dodgy alcantara fascia Julien!! But you're right it ran 13's with the duff turbo! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottishcruiser Posted September 12, 2006 Author Share Posted September 12, 2006 heater controls are below the safc I dont mind the alacantra buddy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ecksjay Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 hahahaahah nice way of putting it lobotomy, aint the neatest but certainly aint the worst i've seen, its actually funky, and pink, i like it also, julien, quite an interesting shade! was that a request from his wife or just a matching colour for the car?as its custom panels you could always change what you've got in there, mix and match with electronic gizmos etc and have some new panels trimmed up and such, have different combinations and colours in there or whatever, could get quite creative Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottishcruiser Posted September 12, 2006 Author Share Posted September 12, 2006 Thats what the first owner opted for colour wise, guessing to match the car.. Not a faffy person when it comes to things liek that so staying the way it is.. Spend my ££ where it matters.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Enzo Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 thats minted mate, a beest of a motor whats fual consumption like off boost and how much is it to fill up a tank? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lobotomy Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I don't think fuel consumption is much greater than on our cars Geo -- I told Paul what I was getting to a tank and his wasn't much less (on the orange car!! -- and it's mapped for 95RON so it's cheaper to fill!!)
