150kW? You would get that out of a Beams engined one (which this isn't), but not at the wheels, and the only gt4s it's going to be faster than are stock st165 and st185s

Yea, 150KW made me double take... :?

Is that from an auction or something? Got a link?
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

Easy, 100kw at the wheels, and 35% drivetrain loss = about 150kw.

Its all relative tho, you cant mesure a GT4 at the wheels and a curren at the motor and say its got more power.

Its not apples for apples is it.

Not sure about that curren, but mine has a double plate and a short shift close ratio box... They were in it when it was imported... that doesnt help the torque, but it does make it a lil quicker...

N/A cars don't feel fast. 20V / 3SGE feel very flat compare to 3SGTE.
where 3STGE pulls, GE struggle, where GE pulls, GTE still ok.

Not quite on topic here but I would like to point out that there's no such thing as a true 2.2litre SS2. It is in fact a Celica GT with a 5s-fe engine as the SS2 came with the 2litre 3s-ge engine. the 2.2 litre 5s-fe motor produces 135 horsepower at peak while the 2.0 litre 3s-ge produces 180 Bhp at peak.

As for the topic, it would be difficult for any N/a ports car to keep up with a turbo sports car unless it had some MAJOR work done to it. In which case you'd be better off buying a turboed sports car and doing some minor mods to it thereby gaining more performance and generaly longer lifespan and reliability. (well thats my opinion anyway)

Glenn AKA Celica RA45 is making 180kw at the wheels, with a 3SGE...

Which has a rather nice torque curve too, considering.

Enough to give a few turbo engines more than a scare, that's for sure.

That isnt to say that it hasnt had an obscene amount of money/work/time spent on it however....
You could make the same power (if not more, and with far more torque) for MUCH less with a turbo engine.

Pretty sure that the 2.2 Celica was the only ST202 version available as New Zealand new (may have been a few BEAMS powered cars later on). Also, that 's the same model that the US market received.
