to my knowledge... no one has completed a 5s-gte on this celica board.
I don't even know of another 5s-gte celica in the U.S. other than the RWD drag car
So i expect you would be the first 5s-gte on this celica forum..... congrats!

boost fixes it all
Thanks dro....your right its cost me a shead load of cash... I dont know what the prices in the U.S are like but ive almost spent 10g's

Little things like new water and oil pumps never seem to come into mine when your looking at pistons and rods....

Good luck on your journey to the world of 5sgte. Keep on it....

I will keep you guys updated on the progress as it happens...Its been a little slow the past few weeks due to the Xmas break....

267? 272? You guys are slightly nuts. I'd never throw that agressive of a cam on a 5S unless you want to make max power at like 10,000rpms, which the block isn't designed to do at all.

I'd go with something milder like 9mm of lift and 235 duration. At least that's what I'm gonna shoot for in a few weeks. My friend does cam regrinds... I guess he'd know more about it than me.

edit: I didn't realize there was four pages to this thread before I posted. Looks like you're in good shape. Carry on.
