So how about a 2nd gen with FMIC, forged pistons, balanced crank, port and polished, rods, valves, springs, cams, and a greddy turbo also the norm 3" DP and exhaust and a new manifold and bored out to a 2.2. what do yoiu guys think thatll be runin at for hp and wut you think thats gonna hang with. guesses on 1/4 times. i got my speculations but wanna see what you guys think. ohh and light weight flywheel and stage 2 clutch mabye stage 3




your getting yourself into a WHOLE world of variables and you CANNOT speculate on the kind of performance and times it can do...and lol at the idea of using a stage 2 clutch on that kind of motor





Take his word for it....i found out THE HARD WAY that a stage 2 wont hold up..... frown.gif i soon have to replace the one i JUST GOT because i didnt know i was running 265hp @ the wheels... mad.gif biggrin.gif kindasad.gif



a stage2 should hold the power just fine. yours probably died early from either an incorrect install, or the fact that you probably didnt take the time to break it in correctly.

that may also be VERY true rolleyes.gif ^^ frown.gif and i figured dan would be laughing his ass off...
but same thing happened to the clutch i had before that doc installed may need more beef according to the guy there b/c the torque rating was so close the actual torque numbers...

i seriously doubt that.
ive been running my ACT street disk and heavy duty PP (rated for 250 ft. lbs.) for a yr and a half, most of that time over the limit of the clutch, or right @ it, with no issues.
IMO 99% of the premature clutch failures you see are from either bad install, or bad break in.

youre probably right, probably didnt break the 2nd one in right. the guy suggested i go with a jdm clutch, starts with an x. forgot what he called it.

Any 2nd gen could beat a SRT4 But someone needs to have some mods done to beat a STi because those things are wicked fast. Trust me, I have a friend that owns one.

jeff ran a 13.9 last year @ 12 or 13psi on an RC185 motor (2nd gen)


and just off topic note...my jetta 1.8t runs 14.3



wasnt it a 3rd gen?


Nope, he's got a ST185 RC engine in his ST.
The reason a 2nd gen celica can beat an srt-4 is because of their all wheel drive. Don't get me wrong, Neons are quick, but their fwd just doesn't cut it on takeoff. wink.gif

but when u swap the 2nd gen 3s into a 6th gen(non gt4), then its 2 wheel drive.


so the 2wheel drive 6th gen with 2nd gen 3s can beat an srt4 (?) ......both 2 wheel drive
aha i hear ya markie , i got a 7afe... i think the metro would be a good run

How far can it take you. The real question is. How far are you willing to go ?
