when i first joined this site, i really didnt know nothing about cars, and truly thought that the 6th gen celica was just some bugg-eyed looking vehicle not worth nothing....but after a while i realized just how good of a car it was, and how powerful it is or could get....consequently, i also realized the potential of my simple 3sfe engine, and decided to start work on it, to make it a beast, in its own respects.....of course after reading you guys post every other day, i also realized that alot of yall, have really given the celica some new respect. Over here in japan, the celica has competition agianst supra's, skyline's, gto's, fto's, 180 (240's), and even civics.......ppl over here actually like civics more than celica's over here.... (just to say there are very few celica or curren owners) anyways, to see the work and dedication that yall put into these cars, to get it to the point that it even makes the skylines over here look like civics, its amazing.....and truly everybody, even those who didnt do a 3sgte swap, should be proud......one day, one of yall, with a 400 or 500 whp engine, will kill a skyline, and make headlines in the import magazines, and show the true ferocity of this undereserved import........i dont know about yall, but before i leave this island, my goal is to kill an r33 skyline......i already have two r32's under my belt, (the drivers i guess didnt know how to shift gears), and i know alot of ppl work on cars for just a hobby or whatever other reason, but i cant promise anyone of yall without a doubt in my mind that someday, will kill a skyline, or a ferrari.....but yeah yall should be proud as hell.....thats my piece, and this will be the last time ill post on this site.......sorry for the long spill, but i just wanted to voice my words....peace yall and may god bless

Good to hear that you enjoy your 3sfe celica so much. As for me, I have given up hope on trying to make my 3sfe go any faster. Seems like a deadend to me considering a turbo and an engine swap is not an option. Still proud of it as a great daily driver though tongue.gif

Even with bad shifting there horsepower makes up for that. They dont even have to go to redline to beat you.

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.

Sorry but im just not getting the whole ST Celica beats an R32 Skyline thing. My GT-Four is running around 300bhp and rips the pants off my friends R32. Soooo this dudes ST must be some bit of kit ? Else the R32 he was racing was shagged - hence the Celica beating it.

Sorry, but not convinced ! What bhp and spec is your ST running ??
