im jealous... i want awd...

ahh... yeah i paid 2000 for my 94. i just dont know if i should bother anymore. i want to cause i love my car... i just think im gonna need something better to dump all that money into

just looked up info on the 3mzfe... not a bad idea at all. in fact thatd be pretty damn bitchin. ill talk to my uncle bout it and see how much we can find one of those engines for

whats the 1mz/3mz? i also didnt wanna blow my fuel economy out of the water. if i can manage to keep it over 23mpg i think i can be happy

wow thats a lot of great info, thanks doc. my car is 94 so looks like i cleared one hurdle.

whats EGR?

so would it be alright to find a 94 3sgte or should i just give up that dream now?

im at 185k on the original gt engine... sooner or later im gonna need a new one. damn this blows. i need to figure out something to do. the car WILL still last me a good while at least. i just want something factory turboed and 4 cyl. something i can take up to 300hp maybe

hmm v6 is just gonna be so damn heavy... i think im just gonna keep my engine. keep things simple. get an intake system and small time performance boosters. if im gonna go all out id like to do it in a rear wheel drive car

ok... so i wanted to do the 3sgte swap. i have a 94 gt hatchback. from what i understand reading the other threads it just drops right in.

just found out though cause i live in nazi germany, i mean california thats an illegal engine. what the hell.

so can anyone recommend a legal engine swap for me living out here? preferably a factory installed turbo engine? i wanna upgrade intake as well, short ram or cold air depending on the engine. i just want like 3 hundred horses... ya know.

when i turned 21 the bar i went to had no stone brewing co pruducts. so i went with fat tire. gotta say it was a mighty taste dark.

is it just me... or does guiness give off this bizarre soy sauce taste?

i despise piss beers. miller, bud, coors... i dont descriminate. i hate all those fizzy yellow domestic companies evenly.

stone brew co is san diego local... we're blessed with their greatest achievement... ARROGANT BASTARD ALE. its tasty if you like em dark.

personally my favorites are red beers. nice and hoppy and flavorful. but not overbearing or too heavy like their dark brothers. im really impressed with sam adams line of beers. the oktoberfest was awesome

actually with insurance companies. 6gc's are considered "subcompact". im 22 ive had my license suspended and a speeding ticket at over 80 and im only paying 56 a month

im living in chula vista so im down. itd be nice to meet some more car people.

... are you sure? i pulled the little grate off the backseat speakers and they look like 4s to me. and how i got the 6.5's in the front is the cut the metal off the stock 4in speakers and used it as a bracket for 6.5s

agreed, love my tiesto in search of sunrise 6. morning after every rave i go to music. and what part of northeastern pa. i was born in carbondale and my dad lives in forest city now



try a band called lost horizon, specifically the flame to the ground beneath album. greatest metal album ive ever heard.

hey, just wanted a chance to hang out with some people that could teach me about cars and such. specially people that have the same car and know whats up. i just got my celi a month or so ago and ive loved every second behind the wheel of it. really wanted to get it upgraded a bit. gotta fix the body though first.

anyone know of a decent body shop in sd?

Combichrist... rocking the industrial. i mostly listen to rock and EDM. i like hip hop from when i was in high school but its gone so downhill since.

ac is loud all the time the ac is on. the car isnt running hot or anything. temp is always at a norm level.

the alternator thing i was suspecting... i was just curious if i was somehow drawing power while the car was off. 600w amp isnt heavy and should be no sweat. and i dont turn the car off after a couple revs and start again. ive done that and it just fails again after turning on. ill keep it reved at about 2k and then just slide it into r or d.

the car hasnt been lowered that i know of but it is 14 years old. who knows. and over the years its had quite a bit of work done to it. i actually cant say its all stock really with how many parts have been replaced. by stock i meant non upgraded.

i was considering getting some sport springs but i didnt want the car lowered to much cause im not a fan of scraping. found some thatll take it down about an inch... think thatll be fine. i wanted to upgrade the entire suspension, get it ready for engine and transmission upgrades.

thanks for the advice

checked out your profile, howd you do 4 61/2's? i put 6 1/2's in the door, that was easy enough but the back looks like all it has room for is 4's.

hey, got mine back in june, its a 94 gt hatchback with 185000 miles. shes been around thats for sure but still runs REALLY well. im not worried about her breaking on me but there are a couple things that worry me

1. when braking or accelerating sometimes i hear a small pop kinda like a joint from the rear.
2. when i turn on the ac it makes quite a bit more noise than ac should
3. i have a sub hooked up and a 600 watt amp. sometimes when i go to turn on the car itll fail so i just rev the engine a little and put it in gear

anyone know what i need to do to deal with this stuff

and on a side note anyone know any san diego places that WONT rip me off on body and repairs? i got a couple dents that need pushing out and the front bumper needs to be pulled out a bit on one side and the cracks fixed

its the Pakfeifer Body Kit.

and ill try and get some pics up soon. she aint much to look at now but itll be nice to get some before pictures up

im from chula vista but go all around sd. just got my 94 celica last month

hey, stumbled across the forum when i was looking at upgrades for my celica. i got a 94 gt and it feels so great to drive it. its got 184,000 miles on the engine so after i get the couple dents removed and sway bars im thinking im saving up for a new engine and tranny. im looking to bring the HP up to around 250. i think thats nice and comfy for it.

also... checked out body kits and i saw a nice one from an austrian company. i think im definitely going with that.

im sure i'll have tons of questions considering the mst i know about tuning cars is playing grand turismo 3.
