Octane - 6G Celicas Forums

NZ has 91, 96 and 98. I use 98.
Mine is a 96 SS-1 JDM. No detonation whatsoever, and goes like elephant with its tail on fire.

Could be moisture, or misaligned pad.
But I'll check my brake pads if I were you.

Same thing happened to my old Paseo.
Try higher octane rating.
I think it's a sign of detonation. If big detonation occurs (especially at lower revs) it can cause the piston to rock, which can make th...

Logically, if you want to preserve the engine output (read: torque), the volume of the exhaust pipe has to be the same.
Which means, if you decide to split the final part of the exhaust into TWO, then...

Or you can get the Rice Limited Edition dual-exhaust. Just get a used exhaust and some pipe, and weld it to the existing pipe without actually making any exhaust flowing into it.

Levin style
I'd rather have the single oval middle exhaust like Boxter style. The celica's rear curve of the body is already similar to it

I thought that POWERSLIDE means sliding/drifting your car by simply pushing the throttle open?
(which makes it impossible in FF)
Ah well.....Inertial drift for me then

Let me get this straight: If you drop the car, it will handle better, but in bumpy road the ride will be rough. Am I right?

P.S.
Celica has MUCH more bottom end torque, while the 'Lude feels much more powerful in the upper revs.
If you have many traffic lights in your city, get the celica. They run easier

Actually, I've never spotted the differences between Celica HB and Coupe.
Anybody got a picture of both for comparison?
