thanks every one nice to see that my car cuts it among all of your 162's ! hehe well i will take more pics soon but i need more film! i will take some pics with my phone when i wake up tommorow (too dark right now) they wont be the best quality but oh well...
warrior, the car sorta sits level but looks like it sits on its ass because of the lower wheel arch on the back. but i guess it needs to be lower at the front, but with 17's i am pretty much 100% sure im gonna scrub on every bump and corner over 20k's! once again thanks for the comments
oh alliance_22 if my celica looked like yours i wouldnt be complaining, ill trade front bars with ya anytime mate! 
and lastly the r in the same stands for Raul, so i guess its better than one six two

About 10ps I think rabsy. The ECU has a more agressive tune as Japan had high octane fuel back in '86 and we didn't! They also didn't have an EGR system.
Nice car mate! Love the colour. Its like the twin of my car!

Its definitely a quicker tuned 3S! the acceleration from 0-100 leaves most for dead! But thats the jap engine without the jap spec computer. with the computer it would really go.
