Toytuner's 88 Alltrac "Vicious1"

So i hope you guys enjoyed all the pics. Ever since i got into celicas at 14years old i have loved the 4th gen, it was my first celica and will always be my number 1 choice. Since the days of celica.net i had always dreamed of owning a st165. I started out with a lowly 86gt with a 3/4 custom cam and a mild grind crank, to a 88GTS that was the cleanest GTS around. Then in april of 2007 i bought my trac, disassembled and filled with mice. I spent uncounted hours and sleepless nights, constantly re-learning everything i knew about the 4th gen through this car. I battled missing parts and bolts, to the uphill climb of removing the tranny from the engine and restoring a hacked harness. Without the help from you guys here this car would not be what it is today and i thank you all greatly for that! Mafix you especially helped me, without you this car wouldnt even run, you saved my ass so many times i lost count thank you very very much. Thanks again everybody for everything!

There now its fully updated!

 

had a parts trac, i stripped her down to nothing but a shell and had her scrapped. It was a really sad day

 

now my alternator died! Im considering messing aroujd with a couple of turbos i have laying around, to make a hybrid. Ive got a 92 eclipse turbo and a few older Air Research turbos sitting on my bench.

 

thanks mafix for the info. im trying to find a good replacement turbo if you have any recomendations. The wheels i have now are a 15in Borbet, not sure what the model is.

 

duely noted mafix ive been looking at those for a while now, i might hit one up when tax season hits me.

 

Just an update: the trac is running good again,what i had diagnosed as a leaking intake mani gasket was actualy a leaking tvis actuator. So i ended buying a brand spanking new one from toyots, they quoted me 575.50 for the damn thing and i got it with my employee discount for 300 bucks. So she got slapped back together and runs like a champ minus the growling wheelbearing which is gonna have to be fixed now(damn car, fix something for something else to break) anyhow just thought i'd update. I bought an 85 Mr2 as well with only 77,380 miles on it for 400 bucks! The passenger fender is toast along with the headlight, but she runs awesome and was always toyota serviced, red coolant and all! I'll post some pics later on.

 

Just updated the Photos again, new stuff with the car includes. new wheels, new boost controller, new TRD wires and copper plugs. Talked to a lady today who wants to do my interior in black leather and red suede for $350.00!!! shes done some pretty nice work so i cant wait to drop the interior off with her in two weeks. Just bolted on a full stainless 3 in. exhaust. Shes boosting good and all she needs now is a fresh turbo rebuild and a new oil pan gasket which i noticed has a really slow class 1 leak.

 

so today i got a new exhaust installed for fathers day. 3 inch pipe from the header back and a single 14inch glasspack muffler to kill a little noise. She sounds mean as hell:reddevil, i will post some videos in the morning.

 

i'll post a vid of the sound later on today
