I used to date a crazy goth girl that owned that car's identical twin. She'd get hammered drunk and start driving crazy in it, 60 mph around hairpins with mudflaps scraping type driving. Those era Tercels handle pretty well bone stock if you aren't scared off by a little body roll.

One with over 100 whp would be loads of fun.

God I miss my Tercel. I never should have sold it. The bucket was faithful as hell, ran like a champ.


My friend still owns his. We use to use those things like bumper cars in traffic, go off-roading, mad burnouts with the 165 tires, bowling for trash cans. Ah memories.

Not to mention he's on DOT road race tires(Advan A048's if I'm right from looking at the tread pattern) I miss those tires. What comes in those things? 4af's or what? I have a 20V silvertop head if your interested in building something up in the mean time. That FMIC and chargepiping setup is more gangster then all the crips and bloods rolled together into one.

Its a 1988 CE (so basic it'l make you puke). I didnt know the princess auto boost gauges were such ---- (although I was suspicious), I have a volvo one I could use..... but theres no numbers on it, it just says "turbo". Actually, I think i will use that one and just write "nog" at the fat end"



The tires are A048 Advans, I would like to get slicks when those wear out. The engine is a 3E, the most crapulent of all Toyota engines. I was thinking of using a 5EFE when the 3E dies. I DO have a set of 5EFHE pistons and rods for it though.
