Engine question Options

[gregsju29]

I have a 94 celica st .....what's the best way to get more power? New engine? Bore out the engine i have now? Is it a pain in the ass to do a 3s-gte swap? does anyone know any place around Connecticut to get good work done on celicas?

Yup! The 3S-GTE will kick some ass!

htere are many more options out there than the 3sgte. also, many more that would work well, and give you enought power in the celica body. things like the 20v blacktop 4age, or the silvertop. there's also the levin 4agze that comes w/ lsd. mmmm, that's what i'm thinkin about. but all these engines drop right in the ST and use the same motor mounts, and also work w/ the ST axles, so there's no custom work there. the 3sgte is much easier to drop in the GT, and that's only if you wnat insane amounts of power..but if you think about it. do you really want a car w/ that much power, and a FF drive train? can you say PUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSH? w00t. anyway, i'm goin the 4agze i belive, for around 3k i can get the levin ae101 front clip w/ everything i need. and no custom work other than wiring. wheeee.
