Hi there .. Well i found the article - I tried searching again for it on the site but it does not come up - mind you it was quite old. translated from google into english .. CELICA TRD PRO SPEC The tuning model which observes the " cicely mosquito TRD PRO SPEC ", to the latent efficiency of the new model fXf|?[fcfXfyfVfff<fefB * cicely mosquito, pursues driving pleasure. The engine NA 1.8 liter 2ZZ-GE [ the normal 139kW (the 190PS) ], by the fact that the new development engine part of the piston, the connecting rod, the camshaft and exhaust et cetera is installed, the 169kW (the 230PS) to has carried out output rise. Suspension tunes the super strut suspension where maturing advances. According to thinking, of the driver it ran the performance which fascinates the person who is worked it is shown...... furthermore it evolved the running of the such new cicely mosquito. The shock absorber - and not to be restricted to the coil spring, high maneuverability and comfort are actualized by reaching to the detail of the part around the stabilizer and upper support and other suspensions, administers quite high-level total tuning. The underside and balance it could point to body rigidity at high dimension, in addition to the engine which makes the enjoyment realize which drives, the " cicely mosquito TRD PRO SPEC " is the best sport model which the TRD sends to all drivers which enjoy the car.

Danz - TRD does make cams for the car .... i'll try and dig up the info at home .. the car make 169 kW i saw the kit sold on toysport and they wanted 5500 USD for them - it included the cams. pistons valves and springs

.. you guys are lucky that they at least using a semi - synthetic at your dealers in AUS. In South Africa they use a 20W 50 - Castrol GTX 2 mineral oil :-( i have recently changed to castrol edge 10W 60 - car is smoother through the rev range but a bit noisy on idle.

Hi there .. thanx for all the info - so you guys reckon the coil-overs will work then ...

I am from South Africa and have bought a strut brace from the US intended for a Matrix XRS and it fittted perfectly. I have also read on some threads that guys from the states refer to C-ONE and TRD part numbers for chassis parts and also on this forum. Now can anyone tell me what the extent to this exchange is possible ??? for example can we buy their coil over kits ect ..

i've been watching this topic rather closely - the heat is incredible - here's my 2 cents worth - i don't have timeslips but this info i've managed to get for south africa ... stock sportivo - 15.5 (cape town -sea level - 95 octane fuel) 16.3 (jhb - at altitude - 93 octane fuel) the fastest time i have seen is 15.01 - the car is decat and runs a 57mm freeflow exhaust according to my knowledge without a header - this is in durban at sea level with 95 octane fuel. a friend of myne will be going to a drag event there soon - he will be getting some slips for us - so we can have a look :-) will post them as soon as we can get it.

well done craig really awsome - the best time for a stivo in south africa is a 15.00 flat !!!

Hi Guys .. I just wanted to know if anyone has experimented with aftermarket exhaust on these cars I would like some info on systems used - eg piping size used, number of boxes used, placing of boxes, dynos ect .. Any help and advice will be greatly appreciated ...

awesome !!! They look very good :-)

Hi there ... After much discussion with various tuners here in South Africa the major problem encountered on our 2ZZ-GE's is the fact that fuelling is out considerably !!! They all basically gurantee at 7kW at the wheels increase with some claiming increases of up to 18 % over stock in some instances !! We basically have three options available other than going stand alone - 1. Dastek Unichip 2. Perfect Power SMT-6 3. RAM Mapping Each person says that their system is the best and works on the 2ZZ-GE, but when i ask for references and dyno's to back up claims it all goes quiet. So basically i love my car and don't want to do the wrong thing. Guys could you please help me with advice - I would appreciate before and after dyno's to. What are the trends in Japan in this regard - From what i have seen they favour the Apexi Power AFC II, TRUST E-Manange, but i can't seem to find any concrete on our cars specific. Also what octane fuel do you guys use ? Have any of you tried Octane Boosters ? Do They work ?? You can even e-mail me directly tparker@oldmutual.com Any help will be greatly appreciated.

hi there .. does this work on a 2zz-ge ???

hi guys they say the power has'nt changed , just a retuned echaust ect ... but accoding to a friend the change over point has been reduced to 4000 rpm ... i personally can't see such a drastic change but we'll see ????

hi buddha ... Just to let you know the RSi and all our models for that matter always had the trip computer , with average and even real time fuel consumption ... the main difference is that my one has a single disc and the new car has a six disc in dash unit but it looks the same from the outside - also they get a steering control for the sound system .. i heard that toyota south africa supplied the cars to austalia without head units ???
