For a benchmark,try racing with a stock M3(E46,E92 die alr cfm

Anyway,the single post that TS has quoted is giving the wrong impression for the whole thread's meaning.
It was supposed to be about a Celica which is supposely "good" according to that thread's TS had rear drums,which is inferior.
In the end,dont need to flare up over drum brakes...drum-to-disc brakes conversion can be had for a few Ks(though it void the warranty).
HELLO??? its not a fair apples to apples comparison...M3 is inline 6 and its displacement is totally different from the SS2...M3 is RWD and celica? FWD....i think its more fair to compare it to like the DC5R...and for the SS1 to the GSR.... thats more like it...and i can stand by my statement that the celicas of today can never be as good as the good ol' celica GT4 ST205....i think all of you have to agree with that...and yes the SS1 to me is just considered as a car with the looks thats all...drum brakes...C'mon!!! toyota have obviously gotten the recipe wrong....@ least the SS2 is much better so much that their engines are used in lotus and in SUPERCHARED trim :P
and to TS...if you think that your car is fast...think again....theres no end to all this "i am faster than you" stuff...its all about how deep your pockets are....and IMHO honda make better engines than toyota....YES the new celica SS2 is quite a good car...i'm not saying that its not fast or what not but its just that its not the BEST get what i'm saying?? no offense intended...

The thing here is that the owner(Celica or M3) is seeing more than what his car is meant to compete with,probly reaching into higher reign
And then finally a race will show the true capabilities
again this shows how knowedgeable you are...when people compare cars they compare STOCK TO STOCK....which is why even comparing cars like the M3CSL vs a norm 360 modena is considered as unfair...unless u take out the 360CS get it? you dont compare modded cars...there will never be an end...
if u considered tat sarcastic, obviously u haf yet to seen the world yet. we always compare cars stock to stock. obviously the celica fellow was comparing his sports M model wif 2.0NA cat. but u insisted in pitting it against M3(futhermore heavily modded one) and stuffs.
in tat case why dun u compare a heavily modded M3 with A380 instead? ![]()
eh u pang seh us last night still wanna talk so much ![]()

Celica looks good... but man.. lol
When it first came out , with the scoop and all i was worried. But after i smoked him. . lol.. even with TRD mods , super charger , lol. is still no match for rear wheeled single BIG @SS HKS turbo. he he
Anyways i think TS should go after other N/A type cars .. like the N/A Silvia , S2000 , Type-R's. Modding cars is not cheap. =S but its worth it. he he
i sick mah.
Modded celica doing 6secs is nothing to shout about. lame
