Celica Alltrac ST165, Launch control test ("two-step")

[estorider]

i have an 89 celica gt fwd non turbo what can i do to make it faster?

[gtfourdreams]

@estorider quickest way to make it an 89 celica gt faster: sell it and go buy something else. this is a serious post.

[Dithrim]

nice, what about the suspension and brakes? the original ones are standards for 80s - which means they're pretty crappy for today's standards...

[myniol]

orginal from sweden

[xCasper87TRDx]

one word..... WOW

[iareme05]

I will have to agree with Rballer. I use a button on my civic hatch.

[d16z6civic305]

Dude can u tell me the setup.that u used im looking for a good launch control for my car and really nice car

[aceasarsalad]

damn, man awesome rev limiter

one badass car

[surlograsp]

celica supra?



[CERNIUM]

@surlograsp no...not the supra...that looks different!

[berzerkrobot]

@surlograsp Nope, by 1988 (when the st165 All trac Celica was introduced) the Supra no longer had "celica attatched to it's name (the last "celica supras" came out in early 86 and in 86 and a half the Mk III's came out with the celica moniker dropped.

This is an AWD turbo 2.0L version of the standard st165 Celica.

@crosbikeman damn straight. 3sgte's are the best engines Toyota ever made. Capable of 600 hp, and bolt one into the FF one of these, then you will have some serious go.

[4drek]

thats sick!

[aShoe0o]

Wow nice work on the car bro. Very nice work. Nice to see someone tuning their Mid 80's Celica for performance.

[crosbikeman]

3SGTE is the best engine I know.

[orkie55]

wow! nice fire puffs coming out of ur exhaust everytime u shift, badass! i used to own one of these, but its sold :(

[rballer204]

I would suggest you run a momentary push-button switch as well you the clutch switch to engage the launch control. That way you can press the switch in during launch then after just let go and shift normally instead of engaging the launch control setting between shifts.

[skintbinlid]

delighted to see a ST165 with good numbers. congrats

[Elmaoh]

[Wayrack]

Hey! Really cool car, I want something wich behave like yours Celica !

[gearhead313]

what setup is this? two-step and anti-lag? two step rpm is too low IMO

[behr165]

MS2Extra launchcontrol and flatshift. The launch rpm is too low rpm this low boost level (0.9bar). It did 442awhp@1.6 bar (E85) after some tuning. It will easy spinn all wheels with the launchcontrol at 4500 rpm.

The flatshift function gives instant boost but it's alot harder to shift with my worn syncros...

[jsaulgodoy]

u got 442 hp outa the 1st gen 3sgte?? wow...im planing 3rd gen swap on my 162...

[onehitmickey]

I really need to finish mine, still sat in the garage. Has anyone ever had airlocking problems with a 165?

[69BETSY69]

What launch control are you usin?

[1991celicaGT]

yeah this has pretty much made me want to get this for my gt turbo..yes i said a gt turbo..not gt4 lol

[jsaulgodoy]

good luck boosting a 5sfe...not much aftermarket with that motor just swap it 3sgte

[1991celicaGT]

i already have everything its really easy you just gotta know where to look im just saving for fuel system now

[jsaulgodoy]

oh i see....u dont see boosted 5sfe around...good luck....

[1991celicaGT]

thanks man yeah theres just a few of them around but i am debating if i want to do a motor swap or not

[jsaulgodoy]

if it was me id swap it...a 91 celica is pretty heavy compared to my 86 celica which only weighs 2oo lbs more then an ae86...u could boost the 5sf but it can only handle so much from a turbo...its known to have a strong block tho so thats the plus side..u should check if the 3sgte pistons fit..and go from there so u dont blow pistons or rings...but dont expect to get a ton of hp as u would from a 3sgte unless u got a deptless wallet...im in the same postition between boost or n/a

[vashsant]

gorgeous car

[foxglovefennec]

amazing video, i have a white ST165 as well, thinkin about a 2-step system, thanks for the perfect example!

[Jangrosch]
