    Hmm. Did they have HIDs available on the celicas now?

    The trd package looks damn nice though.

    Yup, new 2003 GT-S's have fuel cut set back to 8350rpm.

    So the only nasty celica's are the 2002's.

    Due to the massive amount of newbie drivers buying up 00-01 6spd Celica's, they began misshifting the poor suckers like no tommorrow. Toyota's began to warranty the engines...thus screwing themselves nicely.

    Their solution for the 2002 model was to bring the fuel cut down to 7800rpm's from 8350. I guess they figured that way the car wouldnt be driven so hard...thus somehow eliminating the misshifts. Well, needless to say it made the car significantly slower...since we have a "peaky" powerband as it is.

    Enough people complained...a couple of articles were written in some big mags about it, and now...Toyota has brought back the original fuel cut off.

    Still, the 2002 people are somewhat screwed...unless they buy a 00-01 ECU and a couple of other things to bring their fuel cut to spec.

    You can 'want' stuff
    But you need money before you can have it
    So mind you, you should start really sucking up, your parents will give in......

    And out of that list, I've driven all of those cars before!
