Fidanza flywheel - 6G Celicas Forums

6th Generation Celica › Engine/Transmission/Maintenance
Coomers a little bit off but on the right track. The engine won't actually be making any more power, but you will see slightly more power at the wheels from reducing the rotating mass. I would think...

Yeah, if you dropped them all the way down you're totally on the bump rubbers. You might try what I did and trim them a little. I think I took like 2 of the sections out of mine, that gives you abou...

Yah, the metric makes things tricky but what I would do is just go SAE with them and have everybody drill the holes a little bigger in the swaybar. Waaaay cheaper and more convenient. If you don't w...

cutting springs... - 6G Celicas Forums

If you're going to cut them DO NOT use a torch. Do it with a cutoff wheel. The torch will get the spring too hot and change the rate.

I run NGK wires. They're like $60 and they're all you need for an NA celi.

I've heard good and bad things about clutchmasters and mostly good things about ACT. Most likely you'll be happy with either of those brands. If you're really insane, I could hook you up with a 5.5"...

6th Generation Celica › General Discussion
You're correct that it's not good to idle a gas engine for a long time, but 5-30 min to warm it up is totally reasonable. I wouldn't leave one idling overnight like you would/could with a diesel. Wa...

The valve cover and intake manifold are probably the easiest and best looking things to polish. They're aluminum so they polish up quite nicely, but it takes quite a lot of work to get them looking g...

Yah, that dealership deal sounds pretty shady to me. I'd say if you're sure the car is driving fine, then just drive it and don't worry about it. It wouldn't hurt to familiarize yourself with the pa...

Sounds like the clutch is not disengaging (if it was worn out it would rev high and slip, totally different problem). There is no clutch cable, the pedal actuates a rod and a master cylinder (similar...

I dont think you're wrong at all, I just don't want everybody to think that the celi sitting in their driveway weighs 2300lbs, because it doesn't.
Also, you have to be careful quoting published curb w...

I think those weights are a little on the optomistic side, but the trend is definitely correct. The autos aren't necessarily heavier, so don't always count on that. The coupe is always lighter than ...

I have a spats rear bar. It was imported from Japan by Alamo Motorsports. Pretty reasonable pricing....they also make front bars but I wasn't as impressed with the front bar.
