Default Hello Celica owner crossing over soon

Hello to you all from the joys of a FWD owner.

Waiting for the laughs as to why i chose that in the first place

I'm steve from up yorkshire way friend of yatesy girl in a scoob , I know a few of you on here already as often go to shows and meets and your all there.

Well the reason im here is obvious im looking to move up in the world to something more fun and with more doors.

So will no doubt be asking a few questions and bending a few ears of the people i know on here.

Look forward to meeting you all in time.

And i must say oh my god how many sections on the forum im going to busy it seems

Steve

Hi, What type of Celica do you have? I went from my 04 T-Sport to a 05 WRX wouldn't say that there is a big difference in performance both brilliant cars in my opinion, but the Subaru is some what different to drive, less forgiving at times than the Celly.

I thought the top of the range celica (VVTI) 170bhp? so power should feel quite a bit different, also without wheel spin.

Celica is a nice car but you will not regret getting a scoob mate.

The top of the range Celica is the 190 VVTLi T Sport (190bhp@7800rpm). The VVTLi engine had a high lift cam that kicked in at 6ooorpm as opposed to a Turbo at 3000rpm. The celica was slighty slower at the take off 0-60 6.5 secs while the WRX is 227bhp@6000rpm 0-60 5.8 secs. Both cars I have had at 15omph+ on private track. I found the handling better in the Celica.

I regret getting rid of the Celica but this is due to the deteriorating image of Subaru now a days with it quickly getting labeled a "chavmobile"
