Boost really seems to hit harder once the surging stops.
What was your best 1/4mile in the car so far? It as to at least be mid 11s?

15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
just to make this clear.

yes, tufy is special.

the dude has built by FAR one of the nicest celicas any of us will ever have the pleasure of seeing in action.

a bit of a "star" if i do say so myself. (ive had random people, not accosiated with the site in anyway, ask me if ive ever seen the vid of "this crazyyyy celica beating a supra")

so yea, we're NOT closing tufy's thread.
and yea. we WILL close anyone elses, so dont do it.

when you build a celica, that is pretty much known world wide, THEN we can talk about it.

/disscussion.

ohh and:

tufy:
simply AMAZING car man.

my fastest time was 10.47 while i was racing against an ariel atom at dragster 2 years ago.
my car is mapped at 2 bars now but i am still driving it at 1.5 bars boost.
i still have some small proplems (sequential shifter and that surge ect) with my car. if you noticed i skipped 4th gear in video. i hope to fix them soon, then lets see what happens at 2 bars wink.gif
thanks a lot presure2

I know I'm bumping a 3+ year old topic here guys, and for that I am sorry... but does anyone know where I can see the video linked in the first post of this thread? Or what the password for the album on photobucket is? I think I've seen this video before (on Youtube?) but I wanted to have a look at it again. Is this the video where Tufy talks about the top speed being limited by the drag set up gearbox?

Thanks in advance and sorry again for necro-bumping this smile.gif
There are a number on youtube, but there is this thread which links to some

tufy's videos

Thanks for the link. I have seen all of the ones that are on Youtube, but this one as far as I can remember the one linked in this thread which is now passworded was all or mostly in-car footage of Tufy's car pulling to top speed (173-4 mph) and Tufy mentioning something about the dog box with short ratios restricting his top speed to that.

It's a 3 year old album, so obviously malpaso has put a password on it since this was posted. Was just wondering if he would let us have a little peek at it again smile.gif

Sorry, I just realised was wrong here - It's Tufy's album, the video was shot by Malpaso. I wonder if a little PM to Tufy requesting a re-upload would be worthwhile? I really want to see it! tongue.gif

Has he really? I thought he still read the forums. I know he doesn't post much, but I'm pretty sure his profile says that he's still logged in occasionally.

Yep, that's what I thought! Malpaso... any chance you still have the video? tongue.gif I remember watching all the others and thinking this was the best one because it showed the interior of his car as well as (obviously) a top speed pull...
Damn...I was all eager and got cockblocked by a password! frown.gif

kindasad.gif seems like most gt-4 owners hide their cars because they are to awesome for the public

Martin, what about posting that video directly into the thread, if you still have it? Seems too good to miss out on.

Nice videos of an amazing car! Wish I was there too.

But going through your videos on youtube I found one from PECM 2007 from Italy. It was great time, your car in different setup, mine aswell biggrin.gif
