    So here is the Story and some pictures about my Celica.
    Mod list:
    Gen 3 3sgte
    3 inch downpipe, 2,5 open exhaust with open end muffler
    Koni Yellow Front, 4 cm lowered (want to buy coilover set)
    PU bushing in the front.
    2 Leather bucket seats with 3 point seatbelt

    Soon:
    ST165 bodykit, only needs to be painted
    Oil cooler, the stock one cant coop with the heat with circuit driving

    My kit:

    damn fine car, looks real nice, why don't you use a ST205 gearbox oil cooler for your engine oil, would do the job?

    almost prefer it without the kit, as its a real sleeper.

    Are you runing the Gen 3 Ecu as well? very nice, what about brakes, what have you upgraded, cos I bet its a swift motor now

    WTCC BTW

    I have 2 oil coolers, but I rather use a new one with an oil filter relocator.. just to get it right the first time :)
    The kit isn't that 'flashy' so I think it wont hurt the "sleeper" image.. atleast I hope :) we will see!
    And yes im running the gen 3 ecu, and brakes are from a ST185.. just a little better but im thinking about upgrading to ST205 brakes.

    @ lone wolf:
    Have done the swapping on my own yes, but most of the wiring was allready done by Buddy (in his white celica).. just had to modify the wiringloom a little bit :)
    You can try to just put your whole ST165 wiring loom (including the one under the dash) in your ST162.. Or wont you be using de st165 ECU ?

    Here a dyna run when it was still in the old White celica, just swapped it in my black one.. so it's exactly the same.

    Cool, and nice graph too!!, With the remote filter take off make sure its well machined, mine is from Mocal, and it needed a bit of work before bolting on.

    Nice 3rd Gen 3SGTE, impressive power ratings.

    BTW, on your old 3SGE, I've never seen a long heat shield like that on a 3SGE before. Is it just for the Euro-spec 3SGE?

    Hehe thats right, its a Gen 2 exhaust manifold from a MR2.. including the heat shield.

    And yes it's 337 hp, on 1.2 bar.
    Like 280 on 1 bar.
