The owner is the poser, not the car. Once voted Playboys "pocket rocket" of the year... the car is not to blame. A poser is someone who dynos a stock car and thinks it's fast.. or a failure. Most of us wrench on our own ride.. makeing more than twice the power they started out with. The B6 DOHC is a good engine; only the lazy, ignorant and poor will have slow cars.
Which one are you? Or is it all the above?

lol you obviously do not know what you're talking about... I'll leave it at that.

I think you're going to be waiting for an all track for a very long time as its an all trac, not ALL TRACK.

Yeah, that's rich. He's driving the middle powered MX-3, and lumps them together. My girlfriend had a 2 Liter Celica, and if I judged all Celicas from it, I would say celicas SUCK! She drove it nicely, after a complete rebuild, and it still blew up (I was in the car, and yes there was fire).
What a tool. Another "I'm going to get blah, blah, blah."
PLease go to a more common forum where what you don't have "yet" counts for somrething, and if you actually get the Celica, and live near me, I'll race you for cash..

Oh look I found time between fixing my hair and raybans to win.

I like them but they're just not that fast stock.

:lol: Thanks for that! You're good at posing like you beat him alllll the way down.
I guess you have time to pose, after you "tutel down to the corner shop like a Labrador", and wait for the SRT-4 to catch up.
I didn't read at first that he's in England. There are plenty of MX-3s there to play with.

I don't think you understood him. He thinks a celica is a "pit bull". I don't think he knows nothing about the MX 3. Judging by his comments, I'm pretty sure he knows absolutely nothing about CARS.

I think ABSOLUTELY IGNORANT would be more accurate... :roll:

WOW! Can i ask a stupid question? Why would someone take the time to come to a site forum for a SPECIFIC car and down that car while bringing up other cars we don't even talk about? I had to laugh at the part where he said he drove his "Dads car" and so the info he states is all based on that event?

I just skimmed his post at first, but then saw that he isn't anywhere near me. The video would look just like Marc's, though, unless his knowledge of driving is the same as his knowledge of MX-3s.

:crying: This was my old mans old car an when he drives it he makes the car perform. I guess I must have clarmed my style of driving as the last time I borrowed my friends GTi I found that it wasn't performing the way I remembered. I was doing thirty 35 miles per hour when before I would have been doing 50-60.

So I am sorry it was me I guess driving nothing but a bus for a year has slowed me down to the point where I think i'm going fast. If anything I must have forgotten that theres life above 1500-2500rmp. Believe me the stock 4 I want came down with around 230bhp so maybe i'm expecting to much from a 1600 then.

That didn't make a whole lot of sense... never type while you're crying!

220bhp for the 3s-gte engine which is a 2.0L engine... which you're comparing to a 1.6 non turbo engine... hmmm...

Maybe compare to a 1.6 b6t or a 1.8 bpt the engine isn't that impressive anymore...
