>but this this is getin off topic...i just wanna know if the car could go faster....im not saying that ill go that fast everyday...and when i say fast, i dont mean i want supercar speed, just something like scion tc's and civic integra etc. u know fwd "ricer" cars lol

You mean acceleration then. Who cares about top speed? Leave that to McLaren F1's and Buggati Veyrons. You can turbo your 5SFE. I've seen 5SGTEs put down about 300hp. But if you don't want to turbo or swap, most you can cost-effectively do is your normal intake, header, exhaust mods. N/A, these cars are pretty slow...




Yeah, I dont have that much experience with these cars, but in general if you have any plans on making your car faster... just keep saving the money and go forced induction first. I remember spending boatloads of money on bolt-ons for basically crap performance. I think I only raised my trap speed 2-3 mph. For the price of all the boltons I could have bought used supercharger kit; which I did eventually anyway.

It takes 8,460 bolts to assemble an automobile, and one nut to scatter it all over the road.Celica: The name is derived from the Spanish word for "heavenly" or "celestial".Back-2-Back July COTM 15&16

ST is governed at 111mph
GT has no governor

but dont go much faster than the speed limit. the potential force your car has increases by the SQUARE of your speed. AND stopping distance is much longer. in other words, if something happens that you don't expect, your fcked. you drive past that fire station near DEATHs house? it has on display a car that was wrapped around something. wanna end up like that?

I would like a picture of resultant display "car".

And I agree with the wisdom in the thread - don't get reckless with your cars...or your lives.

Likely there is some amount of the driver still within that car as well.

"Five of six teenagers crowded into a car died when the P-plate driver lost control and smashed into a tree at 120mph, in a crash emergency workers said was the worst they had seen.

The horror crash in Melbourne's north also left a 15-year-old girl seriously injured.

Victoria Police Assistant Commissioner Tim Cartwright said the driver of the Ford XR6 sedan carrying six people from a party in Ivanhoe about 1.50am (AEDT) lost control on Plenty Road, Mill Park, in perfect conditions.

Mr Cartwright estimated the vehicle was travelling at 120mph when it struck and wrapped itself around the tree, splitting the vehicle apart.

"There are six young people on board, five of them have died instantly.

Those killed included driver Steve Johnstone, 19, and his half-brother Will Te-Whare, 15, both of South Morang.

Ben Hall, 19, and Matt Lister, 17, also of South Morang, were killed.

The injured girl, Elissa Iannetta, lost her 18-year-old brother, Anthony, in the accident.

Ambulance paramedic Ron McLeod said rescue workers had to lift three of the dead teens off the 15-year-old to free her from the wreckage."

All those pictures are in drivers ed, and in the safty driving class.

If you drive fast thats your decision. Be prepared to face the consequences when you mess up.

It isnt if you do, its when.
that's why if you want to go that fast, leave it for a track. not the main roads.
Thanks Stephen for posting those. Topics like this have no point without a grim reminder of the possible effects of speeding and driving recklessly on open roads.
