SHE'S ALIVE!!!

Yeah, the Celica is pretty neat, especially with the WRC edition third-gen 3SGTE swap. The stock JDM engine has a bunch of stuff on it that isn't active but was installed for WRC homoligation purposes, such as a full blown anti-lag setup and water injection. Anyway, I picked up the new belt and idle...

WOO HOO!!

So, I pulled the timing covers off last night. As you know, there are three of them. First I pulled off the cover in front of the driver side cam gear. Everything looked good, except I saw what appeared to be metal shavings inside of the gear..and I thought - fantastic. :P I then pulled off the pass...

If it was a ringland, wouldn't I get some smoke out the exhaust? And isn't ringland failure usually caused by detonation? I find it really hard to believe that I was getting much detonation with 93 Octane, a WRX TMIC using both inlets, extremely cold atmospheric temperatures as of late, and the stoc...

Maybe not as bad as I think?

No, haven't checked the codes again since all this happened. I plan on doing it tonight with the other work I'll be doing (oil change and checking out the cam timing...more on that below). I posted the last post from my parents place. Getting home from there last night, after the car sat in their dr...

Update

Ok, so I started the car up yesterday morning to drive to work. When I started it up, the car idled, but ran VERY roughly. Furthermore, it seemed to completely ignore any input I gave it from the throttle. I gave the throttle a couple quick blips and got no response. Putting the pedal to the floor y...

Here's the story. Snow is finally in the forecast here in New England, so I decided to take the time to give the SS a good going through as it's my only means of transportation in the white stuff (I have three other cars...one's broken and the other two aren't suitable for snow), and because I was g...

Will this AC Compressor work on a 93SS? Looking for input from the knowledgable crew, though I'm pretty sure it will work no problem. If it's confirmed to be the same as the siezed one under my hood, I'm interested.

I could probably pick up at some point too. I still go up to UConn on occation.

Did a search. Apparently, they aren't an upgrade. The new Turbo GT ones are, but not these. They're actually a downgrade.

It is fun to see that my purchase sparked a conversation. A thousand dolllars is a lot of money, (after shipping and currency exhange it was over 1K CAD). But if I paid the same amount anywhere else I doubt I could get the same result. Adam West you are right, its beautiful. The way I look at thing...

Agreed. I just hope that Dynamic Entry didn't spend all his money on his exhaust and that he has something put away for a bigger turbo. :wink: Edit: By the way, I'm speaking from experience on this....which is the only reason I mention it. He mentioned he just bought the car, and I'm just imagining ...
