Celicas & GSRs...

Personally, I like the Celicas. Its taken me a while to get used to them
but I think that they are a sharp car. I drive a stockier than stock
GSR and I can hang with a GTS. The 1/4 mile stats are virtually the
same on them and the GSR and Celica both being in the 15.1-15.3 range depending on the driver. If it isnt a GTS, I run away from the
Celica from the start. I had one try me from the line one night and
I hit a 4-5K launch and stuck it. Dude backed off in less than 1 gear,
it was sad. One day some modded ITR guy will do me the same way... but that will be fun too =) I floated the valves on 1/8/02 during a missed shift. Bummer? =( =D My car is apart and I decided that I want to be in the neighborhood of 180hp on the dyno in a couple months. I only have 36K miles... hey, you play ... you will pay eventually guys. My ACT HDSS clutch is on my coffee table being put in tomorrow along with new ITR valves (same part # as GSR) and springs (lighter and beefier in ITR with inners and outers on all valves, should be good for 8500 RPM) and I am having a JDM ITR or a JDM CTR intake cam shipped in when this all breaks in. That should be good for 10wHp or so. My setup is still at stock rideheight, so I want to fix that asap. Any input on the best spring rates and shocks to run on the street will definately be taken into consideration. Any input on JDM cams for B18C1?
