Cheater Boy...

Ok let's set a basic checklist

Rally Legend: Check
Multiples Legendary Drivers: Check
Cool Cheating Backstory: Check
So Good it was Banned: Check
Limited Edition: Check
Great engine: Check
Underrated Performance Car: Check
AWD for them Grips: Check
POP UP FREAKIN HEADLIGHTS: CHECK

Got it? YES another Toyota but this time one of the most underrated legendary Cars ever I got myself an St185 if you are a noob name caller A Celica Gt four A.K.A One of the most dominant 90's WRC cars that was so good that it banned Toyota From WRC. Yet one of the least popular performance Jdm cars.

The model that I bought is a Euro Spec RC or Carlos Sainz edition #1475 that was originally from Ireland but the owner moved to Japan and passed out ever since the car was Neglected until it was put for sale a little after that I bought it. Costing me $7.300 Pretty cheap but since it had some mods and was an imported LHD the price dropped quite good.

The Car Shape is pretty amazing overall the engine runs Smooth no smoke Suspension feels tight since it sits on coils and has awesome wheels The interior is complete with non tears and smoke-free and the body is pretty good.

And the driveability is more than incredible this time the shop trip was over 6 hours and the little boy did it like nothing one of the best bits lf the trip was exiting a toll that I just pressed the clutch revved it and boom AWD LAUNCH BABY this thing rips doing the 0-100 in 6.8 seconds it was amazing

I really wanted something different for a while but I reckon that I find really hard to get adapted to FF layouts so I was left with MR or AWD and trying to spare my overpowered slammed Rwd Cars from the winter I made my mind on an AWD platform I looked for lots of Evo's and Subies even some eclipse's but I wanted something that would Stand From the crowd So I went with this but when I found a limited Edition Model I Jumped into it.

But how i could afford this... Well, I Sold the 1.5jz from the S14 but why? Remember the Soarer that made me met smokey (check the previous post) it happened that the owner paid a less experienced tuner That FUCKED the tune into it and two events later the engine that lasted 3 years being beaten as hell was blown When he explained to me I was Furious because it was so well built and tuned. But since he competes with the car and needed it back fast i sold my engine and also had to build a full new harness and a new ECU for it in three days so the Cost was actually reasonably high also fitted new coils getting 30% form the sale and extra 200 from TEIN it was 520 profit for the coils the Engine itself i Charged 8.000 the harness was 2.000 and the ECU and tune 3.080 and Labor of extra 1400 in total it was 15.000 and a tune lock for 6 months (warrranty) i went kinda hard on him but i got pretty upset when people fuck my work soo s14 is getting postponed a little

GOOD LORD A GT-FOUR! a Carlos Sainz edition too! :-X
(Even though i work at Nismo, im still a sucker for most Toyota enthusiast cars, and the Celica is definitely no exception! )
Can't wait to see some tasteful mods on the thing already. Some Fifteen52 Tarmacs along with proper lowering (if you're keeping it a street car/track car) should have it looking like a charm 😃

Since I kinda wanna take it for some off roading I won't lower it too much, about the wheels i may shoot for something more era correct also

More doors more Whores...

So even after owning 5 cars i realized i had a problem hauling passengers because first there was always some that never ran and more than half were caged (s13,s14, and supra), one was half caged but didn't ran (AE86) and the only lasting was very poor in cargo and rear seat Space (St185). So being the Carcaine junkie i am i did the reasonable and went Shopping, Some of you may see me talking to BigSmoke in his RP that i was looking for an ER34 that he bought first since i already had the interest i went looking for an ER34 again.

Ended up buying this beautiful 1999 aero manual with only 16.866 Km's the car was perfect only consumed by the time like the yellow headlights and worn suspension but looked flawless. it was amazing seeing a car with such low use and by a very good price $ 4.400 considering thats it has a Rb25DET Neo and its a manual wnd the car handles great but at the end still is a 20-year-old sedan

Obviously, I couldn't keep it stock so yeah as the original tires were expired i switched to r33 Stockies with advans that i had also fabricated an exhaust with some leftover titanium for it as for now these are the only changes but soon ill mess to make this rb a little happier

BigSmoke

Oh hey, glad you've finally find one! And actually faster by standard compared to mine! :thumbsup:
Good luck working on it man, I know you really want it for quite a long time 😃

# Soju :

DEADMANE

Purple Boi...

As big as my love for Sedans is we all gotta agree the r34 was looking hella boring so I had to do something about it and after some time scoping I grabbed some parts fabbed some more to make the r34 look sick it wasn't that hard but oh boi the result is amazing just look at it
(spoiler it's not complete)

Let's start with the exterior... Pretty sure everyone can see the Z-tune Kit that I got from a friend of mine for 1k, yeah it lacks the rear fenders but I really don't care since the tires already fit fitting it wasn't difficult only minor trimming and bodywork and boom mean +100

Also, another exterior update was the Work meister's that I bought the specs are 19x10 front and 19x12 on the rear so yeah I needed to figure the offset to clear the massive rubber that this puppy so the final price for the wheels was $2000

on the rear, the only Big change was the bumper Since the Aero came with the gt-r wing already but there are two things that have been bothering me first the muffler is too small for Japan and the Lights look kinda dull kinda wanna go for LED's

Just look at how beastly this Thing Looks from the Front gotta say I'm in love with it imagine this pulling up on your back at the wangan I would move LoL

Ofc I wouldn't let the engine stock... but for your disappointment, it isn't an Rb26 But the S14 will be and that's where I got the turbos From but Ofc I wouldn't just lug they in So they received full billet wheels and porting and a New header that converted they from parallel to sequential before you say that this is gonna give me backpressure remember that it has a full exhaust made so the only backpressure is caused by the turbine's. For the sake of look's I got rb26 valve and belt covers and fabbed a Plenum for it since I was already into it now I'm running it pretty conservatively on low boost and it already feels amazing hitting full boost at 2000 rpm and not dipping boost over 7K also got used Tomei Cams for it so I can spin this baby more going for over 8000 when it gets tuned

But power isn't nothing without proper suspension and OFC I was hooked up with my Standard package from tein but went with a Slightly less aggressive setup since its a daily also got into the CNC to make some custom adjustable arms and shortened knuckles since ill be hitting the track also gotta say the fitment is pretty sick looking at the final result

and the color Is midnight purple but when I tool these pictures I had only the single stage basecoat done so that's why he looks odd but the pearl is already done and ill be spraying it soon

.

DEADMANE

Awesome thanks! And the car is looking way better now man

BigSmoke

Z-tune kit means an instant seal of approval from me! :thumbsup:
Also yay for the Tomei cams! I used these on my Evo and they worked so heavenly 😃

So it's going to be a Wangan build? I'd imagine people seeing it as another R34.....before getting surprised over the fact it's a sedan instead of a coupe 😃
Also would be a nice tool to entertain/scare passengers on the run 🙂)

Buzzsaw

Damn, midnight purple will be looking good and is it Tomei dahh cam, I'm a fan of them of the company, I should buying them for my Supra.

yeah it is but there's lacking some paint when it gets pinkier a little it will be even better

Tomei's are great for dailies smooth idle and pretty consistent powerband especially with them twins

Nah i already have the supra for wangan but maybe since it's going to be a daily and all-rounder but wangan requires lot more hp than this engine can produce and would be useful for its use

I have HKS one's on mine but it's a VVT-i but cams without head work are kinda limited because you usually dont use all the flow you can get

Introducing StupidZ...

Ok so after building so much nice looking and carefully built cars i really started feeling a hole in my garage (thank not is not my wallet) and the hole was as stupid as it sounds. A stupid thing that i could take to bash as much as i want So my next stop at the next day was junkyard.

Knowing the owner of the junkyard i already knew what i was going to get Simple easy to build but uncommon combo a Z33 and something some may find weird a Vh41 but why actually quite simple i just wanna 8500Rpm Big turbo 700hp V8 yes that my friccking goal

For now it's already with suspension Fully done just basic super Slammed Tein Super Drift's because that thing is gonna be SLAMMED this really is just gonna be my F it Just send it build next step is mounting the engine.

aslo random 34 pic because he looks good

Yap carcaine addiction kicks in again 🙂)
Not a bad thing tho, Z33 is tuner bae indeed, almost bought myself one before switching to S15 for TA purposes 🙂)

If you're indeed going to fit a VH or even a VK inside, you're officially the equivalent of Chris Forsberg here in the forums 🙂)
I love VK series for it's racing usage along it's lifetime, particularly in endurance racing
Good luck for the project man! 😃

RocketBunnyS13

ER34 looking damn fine! And VH41 in a Z33 is gonna be RAD. Just the literal sound of the thing is gonna be GREAT

Ure the z33 is bae for tunning/drifiting also yeah im kinda the forum forsberg wannabe now, yes it really's gonna be a v8 but a VH not a VK especially since its a oversquare lightweight forged engine and the only thing i may lose is some torque but since imma slap a trbski to it ill replace the low torque with 8000 rpm+ revs and boost since vh's hold reliable 700+hp
