Just bought myself a Soarer and loving it.

Piccy is attached (also has my GT4 in it :-) )
Has 239 kw

These are the mods:
Apexi PowerFC
Apexi AVR Boost Controller
Custom dump pipe
Manual conversion
Torsen diff

Now that I've bought the Soarer though I don't want to sell the GT4 which was my original plan. The feel of the Soarer is a bit 'boaty' but I'm sure that can be fixed with some suspension mods at the cost of that luxurious feel though... not sure what to do about that yet.

I have a UZZ31 and a ST141 (not an AWD turbo like the GT4) and yeah I haven't gotten rid of the old Celica yet either. Love my Soarer, but the Sillycar is so much like a go kart! Very fun to drive, even if the tired old camry motor is showing it's age. (probably why I like it, can thrash the crap out of it! Still can pull redline happily after 250,000k's)

The gearbox is from a JZA70 Supra. I don't know what boost it was running when dyno-ed at 239kw, but I'm guessing something pretty high.
Yeah it is a very sleeper car at the moment. I plan on getting some rims for it and rear spoiler if I can find a nice one that's not too over the top.

I hear you on the Celica. So much fun to drive. That's why I'm reluctant to get rid of it. It's no slow poke either.

239rwkw+manual+torsen =

SOunds like a very nice drive, traction must almost be non-exsistent with that setup and stock wheels.
