It's weird how these cars develop ESP over the years. This is the second one I've seen.

WTF is with the intercooler? There's not even any pipes attached!

13.5 quarter mile with intercooler and zorst? Uh-huh, I'm sure.

Auto transmission with lock up convertor? Excuse me if I'm wrong but don't all auto transmissions have a lock up convertor?

Lock-up torque converters started to appear some time in the 80's. Prior to this even when cruising the torque converter would lose some power - hence the bad reputation autos had for being fuel guzzlers. But yeah, hard to find a modern auto now without it.

All stock diamter torque converters behind 1j's have lockup. Smaller diameter ie. 4000rpm stalls do not :-)

I've been informed the car has 'Piezo Toyota Electronic Modulated Suspension ' written on the strut towers.

Forget the 13.5sec from an exhaust / FMIC. what about the

"* 4 speed performance AUTOMATIC Transmission" Which part of the weak, luxury gearbox is in any way considered a perforamnce part?

This guy is lost.
