The wheels have arrived and not only ...) - Toyota Celica, 2.0 liter, 1997

For a long time I have been trying to force myself to update the bortovik due to the arrival of the wheels that were ordered earlier (previous entry).
So buddy club P1 racing. We've arrived. Wheels are in excellent condition, tires on them are dunlop direzza 205/50/16 (should be enough for the season).

Tried to try:

The wheel weight of 16 kg is not the best indicator, but it is quite excellent for everyday driving! I am satisfied. SSR Type C will leave for the track)

I also ordered this one:

not the most important and functional thing, but I really wanted to! After a while I will order a three-point front, also C-ONE. We are waiting for this)

In mid-December, I replaced the valve cover gasket. It was worn out and leaked oil into the fourth candle well. I decided to replace, although it seems to be nothing to worry about. It was found that I still do not change the oil every 5 thousand in vain and fill in Motul, because under the valve cover everything is in perfect cleanliness) I will add a photo later.

That's all for now at this stage. Immediate plans:
1. Preparing previously purchased brakes from GT-Four for installation.
2. Small interior styling carbon fiber.
3. Painting the bumper and front fenders (there are minor chips and dents). Closer to spring.

Thank you all and good luck)

It's great!) I'll check it for myself now))

Well, for example, I will immediately feel the replacement of the brakes, and the installation of the strut is very difficult to objectively evaluate) Therefore, I am writing like this! In general, of course, you are right and, I hope, it will give rigidity to the body, which is so lacking :)

I felt at one time, half of the squeaks behind disappeared))).

Then, of course, take it, if $ allow ... "You" are good that right-handed people can ... You can order from Yapi with 3C-GTE right away, and not suffer. How do I. :(

S
Selivanoff 27.02.22

Yes, I think it's tougher

So I'm going to change if I change it, then only with the second car ... otherwise there is no way, there is at least some kind of back seat :) :)

T
TYPEeRni 27.02.22

Hardly. Although I don't know for sure. I have the same targa to the heap. :(

Do not change. It's easier with the village. If there is only one car, it's not worth it.

S
Selivanoff 27.02.22

Yes, you will have a stiffer body than mine)) maybe in the future I will change mine to MP2)

T
TYPEeRni 27.02.22

My plastic doesn’t creak, but the ice in the Targa seals gives such a crunch in winter :)

Yes, you have a spacer on your back stanany, for sure. :)

S
Selivanoff 27.02.22

I think that when I buy the front one, then I’ll definitely feel a change in taxiing)
And there’s not enough rigidity, it’s perfectly audible from the creak of plastic everywhere when entering a turn)

T
TYPEeRni 27.02.22

Well, if from the point of view of "I'll notice I won't notice" - then yes. Although they say that rulitsya immediately clearer. (I don't know myself)
Rigidity is not enough for any 20-year-old body, a fact :)

The shoes are beautiful. And the color is correct

And about the strut - I would argue. Why is it "not the most important and functional thing"? Of any kind of tuning, this is practically the first thing I would put, given the age of the car, the fatigue of the metal, and the loads to which it is usually exposed. For this upgrade, +1 from me.

S
Selivanoff 27.02.22

Well, yes, so calmly, not in a hurry :) :)

I see the preparation for spring has already begun) ) ) test!

S
Selivanoff 27.02.22

thanks, but that's too much! 10mm will be behind the eyes) I hope that 5mm will be enough before offset 38.

On drom.ru in the gt-flea market you can buy. China, of course, but 2.5 cm extensions - exactly the calipers will fit

S
Selivanoff 27.02.22

departure 43. you may need small spacers to fit on future brakes)

Baddiklub! what flight?

S
Selivanoff 27.02.22

washing, really on top) but I will switch to something else - I will write a separate post in a couple of weeks!)
I have not yet decided on the brakes, so I will not advise anything yet) But I will definitely post the manual!

H
HECTOP 27.02.22

Kindly, make a complete manual for installing calipers from gtfor. Are you putting it through adapters or will you grind the brake disc? Will the brake master cylinder need to be replaced? I'm going to change it in March, but there is little information ...
As for MOTUL, I agree 100%, I even bled them with brakes. Detergent properties of the oil on top!

I am waiting!)

Hello, Slava!) Thank you, I try to prepare for the spring as best as possible) Even I don’t remember the tire model ... today I’ll take a look and unsubscribe)

S

Dani hello! The process has begun, congratulations on the new clothes. I hope the brace will improve handling. Wheels look great! By the way, what tire model? Dunlop direzza I understand what index is next ...

S
Slavian 27.02.22

No, I haven't heard. Probably a novelty, but still I think not a track. Most likely it will be profitable to ride it in the rain.

S
Selivanoff 27.02.22

Unfortunately, not so) the full name is Direzza DZ101. Have you heard anything about her?

S
Slavian 27.02.22

I read here on the site comments about the Dunlop Direzza Sport z1 Star Spec. What supposedly in Japan is considered at the level of yoki ad08. If so, then you are completely ready for the track days.

S
