^^^Very nice ball'sburnin 8) Ive been looking at the gtx3582r looks like a nice piece of kit too still havent made my mind on which turbo i'll add next,

Well personally unless its at least a stroked engine or 2.5 litre i wouldn't get that turbo, even if it is stroked or 2.5 I would look at the gTX3576r.

I discussed this a lot with funkytown and seeing as he's run both the turbos i was considering (3071 and 3076) I went with the gtx3071r.

I was advised against the 3576 both by funky and the guy selling the thing and the 3582 is even bigger.

That's me in bout a month or so time ;D

Are you running it in a sti or legacy I can't remember :-\ be good to compare once they are done, they seem pretty similar builds.

[funkytown]

garretts FTW... cant wait to see you guys wind up a gtx3071 ;D

Fitted GFB short shift kit and refitted front strut brace.

Has anyone had an issue with the short shift kit hitting the trim when selecting 2nd?

yea but i had the shifter around the wrong way lol

[Johnnynz]

Silly question, did it work around the wrong way?

Its only a minor touch and only sometimes, and it changes fine so I think (hope) its the right way around. Mercuryfree said his touched on v3 from time to time.

[rex-leggy]

yea it worked fine but was pretty weird. you would know strait away if it was the wrong way around as when you go to second it way way forward.

id say 100% you have it around the wrong way

[Johnnynz]

Hmm seems maybe I do. Not to sure where I went wrong but I guess I will work it out tomorrow.

Might grab a pic tomorrow and post it up for judgement (and mocking) by my peers it looks exactly like the photo in the instructions but it does seem abnormally far forward.

- Edit - DUH!!!! Penny just dropped about how its wrong, im a muppet lol.

Aaaand fixed. Had where the gear lever meets the shift Assembly around the wrong way as suspected above. Cheers for the pointer.

STICKER BOMBED

the bonnet and rear wing section,

and resprayed the body. looks awsome ;D

[Stoffa]

Got my alarm fixed, was too paranoid to take the car anywhere when it was bung.

Also got my wideband o2 controller wired in, just need to get the bung welded in the downpipe and I'll be able to datalog everything.

now its the daily driver, time to give it a clean up and buff.

next on the list get my spoilerless boot lid and front lip painted and sort out my whiney diff/gearbox

i was waiting for it

[92LEGESI]

failed warrant..... fark

God it back from repairer as it was rear ended, although it has to go back in as the forgot to reattached muffler to exhause back section, so my Celica sounds like a Rotary.

Still looking forward to getting a 2dr STI later down the track though, or a V3/4 STI wagon to widebody. Celica is a short term thing

[G-unit]

a gt4 celica?

[Divine]

No unfortunatley, I was wanting a GT4 to pain like vintage castrol rally team, my friend has one that I can have for 5k but i'm not too sure. This is just a plain ol daily, (SOHC SSI 3S-FE ST202)

Driving like a nana gives 700k's to a tank!

[Kiwi_Fozze]
