I have a 2JZ-GTE swap with rear wheel drive, 6 speed getrag and paddle shifters.


lol it's been in my profile for like 2 weeks, but of course it's a blatant lie.

example? but ermm.. i guess it's just to look cool i guess

Turbo install made possible thanks toTeamJ.D.M.officially 5SFTE junior member~*MuH NeW RiDe*~
just one i noticed
http://www.6gc.net/index.php?action=members&itu=2242

claims to have a fmic with 2.5in piping....but just posed a thread asking whats needed for a fmic, cause he has no clue what to buy.

there are tons of other ones youll see... people claiming to have a 100shot of nutrous or something else thats off the wall.

I had some mods listed before they were done - sometimes people list what they plan to do. As a matter of fact, there is one in there right now - redded tails. I have the material but have not tried the mod yet.

Other times, people just tell outright lies.

I've heard someone pretended to own my car? Back before I registered on 6gc.

mine is 100% true. in that I dont list any of my mods because I dont want to advertise what my car is running to the world. Wile i like seeing what other people have, I advise not listing out all your stuff beceause it only makes your car a theft target.

I dont know man, that wax job is really good. pictures dont lie.


side note: weit i though everything on teh "intranet" is true, just like tv frown.gif
It doesn't pay to lie. Sucks that people do it. I pm'd a few people trying to get info on the parts they said they have, like headers. I didn't get a reply from very many. I don't trust people who don't have engine pics. I don't have engine pics though, put I do talk about what I have done a lot. Eh, I'm probably full of crap. I'll have to get some pics.

BS no way does any car have this "cruise control"
thats waaaaay to futuristic for me to even comprehend.

no one makes a computer chip upgrade for the celica and whatever resistor you bought off ebay does nothing to add power, let alone as much as you claim .


aftermarket criuise control? does anyone even make that? what would be the benefit over the stock unit. do you just mean that yours broke and you had to buy another one? cause thats not a modification.

The aftermarket cruise is very possible. They make universal units that will work with various cars. He might have some sort of electronic device that advertises those numbers - but doesn't deliver.

I'll second that. And I've got a manual with cruise control. The only way to add 15-20hp with chip, would be if you added something a stand alone. Maybe you just don't know what your saying. You could be ignorant about this.

mine didnt come with cruise control. it was added on later by the previous owner.
