Always been a little curious as to what this would sound like? I did a search and couldnt find anything since most people just upgrade. Anyone done this or heard of this? Thanks in advance. |

I agree with Manny 100%. there is a massive difference between the two. the 7th gen shifter is very notchy, but some people like it like that. I've never had a stock shifter for comparisson to that but when comparing the 7th gen and the TRD shifters the TRD wins in quality and smoothness hands down. although, that's why it's much more expensive. I installed my 7th gen ebay shortshifter today, and I have to say I definitely believe that the TRD ones are much smoother. I noticed that with the new SS, it's pretty much exactly like stock except definitely a way shorter throw. It's pretty stiff though, which is one of the things I liked, but then again I've never had anything shift smoother than stock haha. So basically I agree too, except it's not really harder than stock.  |

QUOTE(Random_Stranger @ Feb 3, 2008 - 1:33 PM) [snapback]637514[/snapback] Me personally would go with option no.2 ^^ x2. I think it would be cheaper and easier to do it while you already have a manual.. But then again you would still have to find one that is selling for a decent price |

I made one of these types of threads like a month ago and everyone was telling me that 2.5" was too big and to go with 2.25" just to be safe.. well not safe but you know what I mean  But then again I don't have headers so that could make a difference too? Hope this helps a little haha |

Depends if you want performance or looks. If looks, ^^^ what illneversellmycelli said. If performance, start with a CAI I guess and then after that exhaust but these parts aren't going to cost even close to $2300 (at least mine didn't and I started where you are right now). It's up to you though Also what yaj said would be a good idea too haha edit: got my post in a little late.. |

If you are going to get a CAI, buy the one for a 90-93 Accord its fits perfectly (well you have to make one cut, but thats all). The topic about it is : http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=47530&hl= |

I've never seen a GT-4 in my city before haha unless it was an old alltrac it most likely wasn't a real gt-4. probably a front end conversion like what rayme and presure2 have. either way i am yet to see a gt4 front end conversion. i only know of one nearby and he's not very active on here. I have no idea all I know is it drove past and the GT-FOUR letters were on the back of the car. I think the second one I saw was probably the same car as the first one now that I think about it.. |

Was it just like minor work? or was it something he would have to actually test drive to see if it's working well or not? That is pretty sketchy though.. |

QUOTE(lipweb @ Jan 16, 2008 - 6:04 PM) [snapback]631421[/snapback] I'm looking at some head work, inverted dome top pistons, and boring the cylinders all for more compression. I guess I'll have to find a matching header and go from there. I already have a 90 eagle talon awd tsi all built up pushing over 300 horses, I just want this celica to be strong AND dependable. How much does it cost on the average for a standard rebuild on the 5sfe?? I'm interested in knowing this also.. bump |

Welcome to the site!! From what I've heard, taking your car to an exhaust shop and just having something custom made is the best way to go. As far as headers, I have no idea if that helps any.. |
