Hey all,

I know I havent been around in a while and I really havent played any UT in a long time.... (shame on me)

So I just thought Id tell ya'll (I said ya'll heehee!) what ive been up to. Well as some of the more long time members of the DW / SVA will know im very much into my cars, and do some amature competitions etc. Well no change there, ive gotten rid off some old ones and bought another old one.... Here is a couple of pics I took with my local car club as we had a japanese car meet.

Work has been taking up most of my time, my company has been taken over and for me it has meant a lot more work as I now not only support 2 ports but also a shipping line and a freight forwarding company.

So apart from that most of the little free time I have is taken up by my Girlfriend. Fingers crossed tho once this summer is passed and the company take over is complete I will have much more free time to play. And you never know UT3 may be out by then!!!!

Ahh... I used to work for the major American freight companies. They have invested a lot overseas at this point. Didn't know if it was them or not... Apparently not.

Damn Kaeolian, why do you guys in Europe get all the good looking vehicals and we Americans are stuck in our traditional looking piecies of crap. Even when it is a car from across the pond they change them to blend into our American Ideal of what a vehical should look like which more often than not is a box. Anyway... nice ride Kaeolian and your buds in in the car group as well. Hope to see you again in game when things slow down.

Ya'll....spoken like a native Texas son! :cheers: LOL!

Good to know you're still kicking, Kae! Miss ya man!

Now...I dunno about the rest...but I know a car's not just another pretty exterior! C'mon, man! Make, model, year! Displacement, gear ratios, quarter-mile times!! Details! ;D

And don't beg off on the sprint times...you ~know~ you've done it...on track or off! ::evil grin::

All that aside...it is a cool looking ride! Makes me miss my own rice burner...lil '86 Prelude!

Yes Ma'am !!!!

Make : Toyota
Model : Celica GT4 st205
Year : 1994
Engine : DOHC In-Line 4 3S GTE
Horsepower : 255hp / 6000 rpm
Displacement : 1998 cc
Drivetrain : 4WD
1/4 Mile : 13.991 @ 96.7MPH with 0.8 bar
0-60mph : 5.9 secs

Times from a track.

Still slow at the moment, I need to upgrade the cluch going for a stage 1 paddle helix , stick a bigger exhaust system 2.752 bore i think, up the boost to 1.1 bar and change to a bigger filter. That should see me just over 300bhp then I can start to think about bigger turbo's etc...

I recognized the celica body shape. However, I don't remember any american models with 4wd.

Isn't that detrimental to racing? Wouldn't you want rear wheel drive? Sorry, I am n00b on such subjects.

You guys didnt get a st202 or an st205 model so my body shape wasnt released in america.

All the GT4 models are four wheel drive i know for definate you guys for the st185 which is four wheel drive.

As to the uses of it within racing, the celica gt4's have always been rally cars hence the need for 4wd. What sort of racing did you think it was for zeus ? drifting ? This is for more twisty tracks with rougher terrain, it also has super strut suspension.... and it needs replacing im going to be so poor when I come round to doing that.
