1991 celica ST track car?
As the title said, do you guys think that a 20v swapped 5th gen celica ST would make a decent track day car if lowered, strengthened and a rear disc swap? I wanted to buy a celica all-trac but the seller backed out. or should i just spend the money on a newer car like the is300, WRX etc. OPINIONS WA...

Re: 20v silvertop CEL questions
Sorry, thought I already replied. no it didnt. i might not need to use diagnostic though. i figured out what was wrong with the engine. i bought a used AFM here from someone and they sent me the wrong one. the one the person sent was for the aw11 mr-2. so i talked with a guy and ordered the one i ne...

Re: 20v ST bogging.
also, if i have the TPS at about 500 or .5 ohms which is all the way forward. itll bog at around 4k. if i have the TPS at about .6-.7 ohms itll start bogging at around 2k rpm. it also runs much richer.

20v silvertop bogging. STA?
Well. when i get on the gas the engine severely bogs down and almost stalls when cold. if i just LIGHTLY open the throttle 5-10%, the thing sounds and runs great. Does this seem like the signs of the infamous STA not hooked up bog? all sensors are hooked up. o2 is working. ISCV is cleaned and fine. ...

I got that o2 sensor in. the connector is way wrong. they are both 4 wire though. i was thinking i could splice the old plug onto it.
