Car blew up - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #10437 14 posts Started by blkGT
So i was racing. and i just beat a svt focus, and then i went to start my car and it was knocking really hard. so i shut it off and later started it again to limp home, and the stick was stuck and i couldnt get it into gear. so i turn it off and it wont turn back on. I got towed home by a friend. From the sounds of it is my tranny gone? Cauz im hoping its just the engine and the tranny is salvageable for a 3sgte swap.
At least you won the race. Sorry to hear about your car. Really cant tell what has happened. Hope its not very serious. You shouldn't have driven it after the race before you checked out what was the problem.
sounds like you are about to get to do the 3sgte swap. sucks that you messed it up, but it will probably be for the best >wink.gif> .

i am awesome
my first car looked just like that after it caught fire....
fuel leak from the 3SGTE swap,

kids make sure your fuel fittings are good and tight >smile.gif>


it sounds to me like your clutch might be messed up, either a messed up fork or throw out bearing.. both of which could have ruined your pressure plate.. not too bad tho..
