Is it avalible - 6G Celicas Forums

Some people like to find a way to disable the fuel cutoff in between shifts so that it shifts faster, but it shortens tranny life. Other than that i dunno.

Sway bar bushings (4 bucks each, need 2) or your scissor jack are the other 2 most likely culprits. Could also be your hatch cover or anything else loose in the back half of the car.

Manny, you mean the IAT sensor?
The oxygen sensor is in the exhaust system, not the intake. When you start the car it is in closed loop mode, so the O2 sensor will not have any effect; but if its bad,...

6th Generation Celica › Interior/Audio/Electrical/Wiring
Daul 4ohm - Daul Voice Coil (or DVC.) As a single sub, the voice coils can be wired parallel for a 2ohm load, or in series for an 8ohm load on the amp.
Since you have two subs, it can be wired so it p...

6th Generation Celica › Interior/Audio/Electrical/Wiring
They are most likely 200rms watt subs, but I can't say for sure. You cannot damage a sub by 'underpowering' it, but you can damage a sub by sending it a clipped signal (i.e., improper gain setting.) T...

EnthusiastJoined Feb 19, '04From austin txCurrentlyOfflineReputation:1(100%)
6th Generation Celica › Interior/Audio/Electrical/Wiring
Are the subs 4ohm DVC? I'm assuming so because of the diagram you put it. Do realize that any amp running at a 1ohm load (which most amps are
not
capable of) will be running very hot and distortion wi...

If you want a better "thump" from your new front speakers, you're going to need an external amp to power them. You'll probably lose some of that low end "thump" when you get rid of the stock speakers ...

If you do go with the s2000, get a 7th gen base. It's so much easier and cleaner, and should only cost you a couple of bucks more.

It's a function called 'Passive Arming' when it arms itself after 30 seconds; there's usually a way to turn it off, but its different for some alarms so you'll have to check your manual.

with the

Any time you increase the guage of the wiring (thicker to thinner) you should use a fuse.
