Starion vs. Some wierd TRD

[Musashi3000GT]

This past weekend my boy Gotian came over to my abode and helped me get the starion running back up again.
we cranked her up and she was running nice for a few minutes then started sputtering. I figured it was the fuel. so today I drop some fuel injector cleaner and crank her up to go for a drive. I need to drive her more often now to get all the stuff broken in for the rebuilt.

I get to a light and this dude in a gold toyota pulls up next to me. the car had soooo much shit on it that I could not tell what it was. it had celica lights, supra tails, a CF hood, three different body kits molded into one, wide body panels, it was just wierd. only reason I know it was a toyota was cause it said TRD everywhere. on the fender, on the windows,on the trunk, everywhere TRD TRD TRD.
I lower my window and ask "hey bro what kinda car is that?"
you you know what he says?
"its a TRD"

me: "yeah but what kind?"
him: a TRD hybrid
me: ok bro sure, never seen one before, nice honda!
the dude looked pissed, that honda bit pissed him off so when the light goes green he jumps on it and Im like oh shit hes actually going for it.
I drop it into 1st and hes already off the line and I cant launch this car worth a crap cause Im still not used to it plus its acting up a bit but non the less the dif catches and Im off. I rev up to like 4000rpms and the tranny starts to shake (bad input shaft bearing) no prob I manage to match him. we both shift into 2nd and I start to pull on him as the boost guage climbs. I shift again at 4000rpms and the loud PFFFFTTT sound scares the shit out of him Im a half car ahead now. he litterly looks over with this astound face like OHHH SHIIIT! 3rd is in better shape so the boost comes on and I pull a full car and this guiy is just going nuts again the BOV wistles back at him and I get to 80mph and shut her down. the guy was about two cars back and just smaking his steering wheel like in a rage or something. I turned a right and headed home.
I cant wait to finish that car!
oh and I still have no clue what the hell I raced!

[Burnerdominator]

good call

nice kill, ur just shifting out at 4k!? what is the redline on that thing and where does it get boost!?

[rice(er)]

when you said celica lights, you mean the round ones or the 2000+ headlights? and when you said supra tails, you mean the tail lights or the supra wing? did it have an old body style look to it or a new body style look? did the body look like a supra? because 6th gen celicas is a replica of the supra. I need more info. Did it look something like this?
or this(minus the headlights)
or this
this (minus the headlights)
this


you have a wide variety but i've seen an mk3 supra with the mk4 tail lights and gen 7 celica headlights, other than that, im not sure what to say, btw, gotian, that is a very sexy sig, oh la la, look at the hotties which one is which?

the car redlines at 6k and boost kicks in at about 2.5, if he goes over 4k the transmission starts shaking so he getting a new tranny

[TatII]

wow ricer i'm impressed that you know your toyotas.

[VR43000GT]

What does a starion run in the 1/4 and 0-60? Anyway good kill.

[TatII]

i think they were mid-low 16 second cars stock.

[Musashi3000GT]

deppends on the year really. the 86 is a low 16 the 89 where high to mid 15s.

Rice(er), its none of those. This guy had either a new Corrolla S or a Cammary of some sort cause it was 4-door. he had the round cellica lights, the supra tail lights, a CF hood, a CF gt wing, wide body with a front bumper that did not match. It was butt ugly.

Tat, Im surprised you knew about the TBI! not to worry I have a hurricane on the way to do the conversion over to MPI. She'll be sucking gas like a V10!

Burnerdominator, what car do you have now? Actually dude if you wanna learn about Starions your gonna need to talk to my wife. Charlynne is the expert on the Starquests. I just fork the cash and turn the wrench but she is the one that does all the research and finds out the stuff we need to know for the project. I tried but I had no luck and no one would help, Char started making connections left and right and next thing I know shes getting me data sheets and blueprints and the service tech manual. Shes just amazing with that. so yea son talk to her. her screen name is "ishtar X".

[speedthrill]

hey man, seems you had a nice race.

Kinda remebered me my race against the weird toyota last week. Still haven't figured that out also. What's up with ricers lately?

And ricer, you love toyota don't you

[TatII]

yeah the MPI would make a big difference in that car, but don't people somehow swap in 4G63's into those cars? when some guy came to the shop with one of them, i was asking about that car and thats what he said, don't know how possible it is, but if people can put 3SGTE's in a AE86, then might be able to do that with a 4G63 also.

what is the redline on those things? i remember it being like 6K casue it has a massive 2.6 liter 4 banger. and people thought i had a big 4 cylinder truck engine in my car.

whoa, tat, i'm surprised you know your toyota stuff, i thought u were a nissan guy? if you think 3sgte in ae86 is l33t, ur gonna wuv this


2jz(supra) in the ae86

and musashi, i'm glad you narrowed it down, i bet it was possibly a corolla s, the new corollas tends to be a lil more boxy body than a camry
