That is a proper cluster!

The craftsmanship and polish is professional - looks straight out of a circuit racer.

Has no more Celicas
I changed also my intercooler . The efficiency is the difference , not the size . The second picture show the difference with bar and plate cheap construction .





My ''amateur'' pie cut downpipe





I add 4 EGT to the manifold , the main reason is because I plan to use individual port water injection , then I can see if something goes wrong on one cylinder .




The pictures are from 2013 so I will update more quickly than the work I made ....
Wow flawless. Why are most turbo down pipes welded like that. I know for cost effective, but is it not practical to mandrel bend one straight pipe?

Probably because mandrel bend are too expensive or hard to get (both my case). Professional pie cut in exhaust or intercooler piping can be a work of art really , especially with titanium $$$$
It was a little tight to bolt the manifold due to space between wastegate and radiator inlet .



Engine bay picture with the new manifold , new turbo and Levin E58 tranny .

Yes , A lot of love to that celi and to the 7a .



I change my Autronic ECU from the SMC to the SM4 model . I really think this is one of the most underated standalone and really enjoy it !



I removed the JDM cas (crank angle sensor) and now use standart honeywell trigger to the the SM4 . Simple, robust and precise tigger are the way to do it . I also had a custom trigger wheel made to bolt over the BHJ harmonic damper. Just one bolt on the cam pulley is magnetic and only 2 tooth on crank trigger wheel wink.gif




Got my biggest shipment ever ! Try to guess smile.gif



It is directly from Japan ...

I see you already have a carbon fiber hood but maybe a GT-4 hood?

This car should be the next featured ride, great build by a great member, who has always pushed innovation on this site.
Good to see you still around frotou. That is some serious A series pron right there. Do you still have lambo doors?

JDM guy made me do it.

Yes I still there since near the begining. I am no more in ''show n shine'' local scene, I am now more performance oriented. To be honest I have buy the lambo doors but never installed them , I resell them here on the site but I don't remember who buy them. I will enter again to be featured , but not before I done some things/change I plan.

One thing I will have to do also is to update my ride mods in my profile ....
The install of the cusco cage was not hard , one of the most bolt on part of the celi wink.gif . Pictures are hard to take but it look great in person .





Need to put back the missing trim .
I'm not big sound system enthousiast anymore , I use the radio DIN for the profec e01 boost controller and for the stack dash switches. I will remove all the speakers also , the only music is the engine noise now !





Some pretty nice things are coming , I will send more pictures soon !
Wow amazin work and dash. I like it
