The cars going to be rapid lol

Not 100% when its going in yet, meant to be next week but might have to delay it another week as I wont have time to drop it off! Going to his depo in cov but then hes driving it to his main depo in scunny

No one drives the celica
And yes, Mike should do it - the Corollas seem to magicly get better gains!

Well got it back from Se7en Motorsport and I'm pretty impressed! Haven't had a massive blast in it with all the snow about and then sitting in traffic daily <!-- s:x --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_mad.gif" alt="" title="Mad" /><!-- s:x --> Had nothing to compare to yet really except a quick run with Woody on the way back from collecting it, but it does feeling alot stronger through 3-5k revs, cant even feel lift kick in sometimes which is a good sign (can still hear the engines tune change though)



It had the 'burble' that stage 2 cams gives it on tickover, which sounded pretty awesome but knocked the revs alittle too low and stalled when the fan kicked in if left running a while, so me and the russian upped the idle from 900 to 1,100. Been fine since and can still feel it rumble and hear it burble a bit

Everything feels a lot sharper now with the new brakes and clutch, other than the noisey stage 2 cams its running like a dream. It wasn't all plain sailing though, when the work was getting done they found the rocker arms had pitted so replaced them and the radiator (which I kinda knew was on its way out) was completely buggered too so got replaced with the alloy one I sent over

Got nothing to show really for all the money spent - its all how it drives , except for maybe a possible pic of the brakes, but its filthy <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt="" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: -->

Might be off to Dynodaze at the weekend to see what difference its made
