Mk2 + Suspension = Awesome (vids) Mon, 17 November 2003 01:05 Go to next message
Hey guys,

Don't know if all of you guys have seen these videos but I already had one of them, and we found the other two of them. Just goes to show what the Mk2 (its a Celica XX hehe) is capable of with some decent suspension, wheels and tyres and a bit of grunt.

Looking at videos like this makes me pissed off that I still don't have decent suspension in my MA61. You wouldn't think it would be hard to buy springs and shocks when you know exactly what you want, but apparently it is! Mad

Pffft! That driver wasn't anything special... sure he was good, but nothing amazing. Go to any club-level motorkhana event and you'll see plenty of drivers who are just as good or better!

No need to get defensive. I never said I could do better (I doubt I could), I was merely responding to the comment that "Australia dosent make drivers like that".

Norbs,

Re: Mk2 + Suspension = Awesome (vids) Mon, 17 November 2003 13:46

Looking at videos like this makes me pissed off that I still don't have decent suspension in my MA61. You wouldn't think it would be hard to buy springs and shocks when you know exactly what you want, but apparently it is!


So the KYB's didn't work as planned ? If not, what was the problem ?

Maybe Koni's are worth the extra bucks ?

Cheers

I have the KYB's, but I'm waiting until I have the other components (springs and bushes) before I install anything. I'm hoping to have everything in my possession by the end of the week, but given my luck lately, I'm not counting on it!

Yeah, I'd like to minimise the time spent crawling under a car. I just spent the evening pulling a cruddy, oily diff from the back of the car... these things aren't really my idea of fun!

I know, I know. It's a sickness, I can't help myself!

Believe it or not, when I first bought my Supra it was meant to be a reliable runabout to drive while I worked on my Celica. I promised myself I wouldn't modify the Supra at all. Now it has a goddamn 2JZ! Laughing

Yeah yeah. The Supra took 18 months, so we can't expect the Celica to happen overnight!
