well... The Celica is listed at 15.6 in the 1/4... while your's is listed as 15.3... So it could be close...

Sweet! Oh sorry, it does come as an option and I remember him saying he can't drive stick, I was wrong though it's a 6 speed AT...
This guy is such a TOOL! and deserves to get smoked! I'm so sick of the 55% female driver comments! [:@]

And that's the manual GT-S, the auto one <yes there is one> is mid-high 16's, just look on newcelica.org. The auto GT-S is the stupidest thing ever, you take a high, small powerband car and mate it with a 4sp auto that drops waaaaaaaay out of the powerband <or lift> on each shift, no idea what Toyota was thinking.

Long and short t/s, you'll murder him.

15.3 for an auto. A stick won't be alot faster stock, but it will be a bit faster.

BTW, he doesn't seem to know much about his car, the 7th gen Celicas <2000-2005> were either 6 speed manual or 4 speed auto.

lol yup. bet this guy money and rape him.

this is one of those import kids that probably won't show you what's under the hood (cause all he's got, if anything is a cone filter and a cruddy exhaust). Odds are in your favor.

Dude just study the celica for a little while, then go in there and ask him a bunch of questions about it in front of everyone then bust his ass with your knowledge! That will hurt him a lot more than street racing. People can't stand it when you make them look stupid, especially when it's about there on car.

That's funny how he comments about your "girly" V6. I don't want to knock down Celica's(I'm a Celica fan) but he drives an AUTOMATIC celica, I repeat AUTOMATIC. Most people I see who drive automatic Celica's are women.

Tell your peeps that these Stock V6's have the power of the old 80's meybe early 90's fox bodie v8's!! with no mods!! Tell your peeps its like they are saying not to fix up an stock 86 mustang GT cause they are only 215hp at the motor. We make 210 at the motor!! They are not making sence. These cars have a lot of potential. Its just like somebody said over here or on another forum. As long as the Mustang GT V8 is out the V6 will always be looked past. "oh its not the V8" "Why didn't you get the V8?" It will never stop. Thats why I stay on the asses of the 05 -07 GT boys to remind them lol

And some of them end up looking at the ass-end of your car! :D

I thought the Celica GT-S's were faster than mid 15's but I checked everywhere and its right.

Dude, I'm gonna race him anyway. I've heard enough...I'm also going to rip on him about his car knowledge too! I don't know a lot but at least I'm not ignorant enough to go around talking like I know everything...he said he has a 6 speed AT!!! he also has a huge rice cooker in the back! sounds like Sh** though... This will be my first race EVER! well one that I acctually have to see the douche bag the next day! I'll let you ALL know how it goes...

BTW: I'm new here but this forum KICKS A$$!!! and so do you guys thanks for the help! Oh wait, except that jackas$ that was asking if we all wished we had a v8!!! what a dick!

The muffler is great for noise that you wish to have, but performance wise you really won't see anything.

The biggest bang for the buck with easiest installation requirements would be a new tune for your Mustang. An SCT xcal2 tuner will remove your throttle lag and give your pony a great response from a dig.


As for racing the guy, what track did he suggest to race you at?

The SCT X-Cal2 seems to be the most popular tuner out there! everyone on here is an advicate for the mod! Question: once I get that tuner will I be able to tune any add ons I buy like CAI or exhaust? I'm pretty sure you need to retune the car after every mod but not to sure what retuning is? I'm so green to all of this!

As for the race there is a strip behind our building that is long enough... that's where I opened her up for the first time...if it doesn't rain it's on after work! He's already been making excuses like he knows I'm going to smoke him, like ..."If I had MT there wouldn't even be a point in racing" ...he's so going to get smoked!! I asked him today in front of our HOT receptionist how his fantasy "6 speed AT" was running! and told him when you wake up and realize there is only 4 speeds you'll be wishing you had my "Girly v6" BI-Atch!!

I need to control myself...this mustang is turning me into a monster!!! :D

LOL hell yea!! Don't get to cocky cause there is always bigger and better car wise and driver wise but you got or should have this one. Especially if your a manual. He probobly doesnt even maintain his car that well eather. Just changes his oil every 3 months prolly lol

With the tuner yes you can have your car tuned after each add on. Its good pretty much through out the modding of a car. The tuners really wake up the autos cuase the auto's shift a little more on the Buick Centrey side. U don't need to worry about shift points and pressure. I would get a CAI and tuner combo. I have a manual also and when I first got it I threw exhaust and an intake on. I finally bit the bullet and bought a tuner. I had to have mine thrown on the dyno ( which is a more accurate way in my opinion) to be tuned. Anyways I found out the intake was just leaning my car out! She needed a bit more fuel to compensate the extra little bit of air coming in from the new intake. Could have messed up my car in the long run meybe! What u might want to consider is a CAI & tuner combo. They will send you the intake and a tuner with a tune preloaded (AKA a canned tune) in it for what ever octane u use 87,91,93 ect. You let them know what octane you run and what mods you have done and they just preload a tune from a car who has similar mods and tweak it a bit. Its always better to get it done on the dyno because it is your car that is being monitered not someone elses, but a canned tune can hold you off untill u get more loot. You can also put the intake on your self. Then plug the tuner up under the steering wheel and load the tune. Thats pretty much it. Like 30 min at the most and u can do it your self. The tuner thing is a bit confusing but once you read a bit more about it you'll under stand.

As far as i know the GT-s model only came with a 6 speed manual tranny only the GT (slower)model came with the 4speed auto. Iam 90 percent sure on this.... maybe he has a GT posing as a GTS.

It wont be close, ure ganna steam that rice!! Just hope he doent have one of these under the hood. that would be bad[:'(]

Sorry, but you're wrong man. The GT-S came in the 4-sp auto...here's a sample of some Celica 1/4 times and the auto GTS is on there. It's just much, much, much slower then the 6 sp, and slower even then the 5-sp GT.

http://www.newcelica.org/other/tracktimes/page.php

I should say the auto was only available in NA, everywhere else the car was manual only as you said.

ok i have first hand experience with one of these celica gts machines. it had neon underglow and all sorts of fancy gizmos, also the stock huge wing on the back. he pulls next to me and guns it. within about 5 seconds i was so far ahead of him i couldnt see him anymore. and im stock. that car is a joke i was gunna post the race but i didnt even bother. race him for money....lots of money

Celica weighs 2500LBS but 180 hp, 130 ft-lbs FWD shouldint be a problem, I always thought that was a chick car, but thats a stupid assumption anyways, the only two GT500s I saw on the road were driven by chicks, one talking on a cell phone too hahaha

Ok , thanks for clearing that up Jericho ....i guess the dealer down here only had the GTS in manual.

Hey all, thanks for all the input...We ended up racing after work on this strip we have behind our office and unfortunatly I didn't beat the GTS...

I DISTROYED IT!!!! No contest...off the line I was a half car ahead by the end I was about a car and a half ahead!!!

List of excuses:
The strip wasn't long enough
I have to wait for my power to kick in B/C I have AT
I heard a weird noise near the end
I think I might have a leak in my exhaust

Blah, Blah, Blah... C'mon...just say nice car! Sorry I doubted it and move on...

Bone Stock! 06 v6 5-speed eats stlightly modded Auto.Trans. 4 speed GTS....:D

I'm just happy I won my first race...

You are an AMAZING man!! That kicks ass and that sounds like a bunch of ricer excuses! Kick ASS man!! If his car is having that many problems maybe he should have thought about a Mustang! :D

good kill man congrats

I drive an 02 celi gts, except mine is a real gts, with a manual 6, not the auto 5. so yeah, roast this guy, and let him know, that a celi driver was pullin 4 u. but if it were a 6er like mine, well if it was me, you'd be taken, only cuz I know the perfect shift points, and unlike other gts', that red line at like 75-76k, mine redlines at 8k.

Heck yea man!! Now you should consider the intake and tuner combo. You should check out the local track by your home too. Its a whole other world! lol not to mention thats is more safe and legal. Congrats on your first kill. Keep em coming

Look here Clica GTS guy! You're pretty cool :) I was thinking about getting one but I couldn't find one last year.

secret looooooooooveeeeeeeeerrrrrrrsssssss.

LoL! You're an ass! By the way, 8cd03gro, the lawn mower is BADASS!

lol hell yessssssss.

:D I'm hooked now! I do have to slow it down a bit though...I picked a fight with an Eclipse the other night after he cut me off and hit the 115 limit racing him...he pulled on me after I hit the limit but it was me most of the way...

I'll notice a difference in the way it drives the next day after I run it hard...do you guys think my SCT-tuner will help with that or is it normal?

GTS- is a 4 speed manual not 5 speed...right??? geez! either way I took him and he keeps telling me he wants a rematch when he gets his leak fixed...I told him it was only to show him that he shouldn't underestimate v6'rs...or there drivers..I wont race him again...

It's a 6-sp manual and a 4 or 5 sp auto, i think 4, but either way the auto GTS is known to be a dog, in the mid 16's. The manual GT is even quicker then it.

Tell him if he wants another race, put up some $$$.
