Belt whistle

Lately, my Celica's been making that whistling noise, it's the belt isn't it? Is this something I need replacing ASAP?

Re: Does anyone else have a clutch with split personalities?

I guess it can seem that way, but I really think it's the driver. Like in the afternoons during rush hour, and I'm tired and angry at traffic, I won't drive good obviously.


I really like your car by the way, was about to get a silver one before I got the GT-S

Re: Wanting to buy a used car

You're not talking about me are you!?! My GT-S is in perfect condition mechanically! But if you live around my area or in Michigan in general, hit up xceedspeed, I saw a really clean 1986 Corolla GT-S, it's a red hachi roku. http://www.xceedspeed.com/forums/showthread.php?t=111818 http://s135.photob...

I saw her on Leno a long time ago, and she was talking about how she started drifting because of her son, and she went to Japan with him to drift. Pretty cool

Re: Just installed short shifter

Crap, I'm looking at short shifters online so I can't really be sure if it'll work.

I know that B&M makes one for my car, but I need to know for sure before dropping $150.00+
