I'm interested in letting go of my 1g-gte RA23 celica. Due to life changes, i cannot afford to keep it any longer, and subsequently am looking to sell it. All told I've spent around $22,000 on the car, and I'm looking for aroudn the ~$10,000 figure. The rough specs on the car are as follows.
1g-gte
GT40 - 600hp Roller bearing turbo
MA70 intercooler
Custom Manifold
External Tial Wastegate
W58
Haltech IG5 ignition computer
2 B2 Converters
50 Litre Gas tank.
Twin lines
440CFM Gas research carbi
Turbo smart Type3 BOV
Locked Diff
MA60 Rims
Triple Core Radiator
5" Monster Tacho and Shift Light
More stuff, but the list is getting tiresome.
The pics are all shown at www.stradlater.com
You can see how it's all gone together over time.

This is definately one fun car to drive!!!!
The conveters it has in it are 2 x modified B2's. The whole gas system was installed by gas research performance and it uses all gas research bits and peices.
As far as why use gas? well why not use gas? you dont have to worry about epa as there are no emissions and when done properly you can run ridiculous amounts of boost. Its also very cheap to fill up

Heh, thanks..
HOwever, how you gonna get the IG5? I thought thye weren't making them anymore.
And.
Have a careful look at the distributor setup if your using a reluctor adapter, but if you can use the crank angle sensor with direct fire, you'll be thousands better off.
