Just curious, anyone know what the standing record is right now for a NA 5S-FE? I figured it would be a celica to hold the title as we are the lightest cars to receive the 5S. Might as well get the record and hold on to it lol, since there are so many damn 5S's out there. So if someone can tell me what it is i'll go ahead and try to beat it, maybe start some **** with the mr2 and camry forums.

well mk3 supras have way more torqe from that inline 6 to push that weight.

but as far as parts for a 5s mr2 and a celica, some will work and others wont, like suspention parts to keep the wheels level on the ground, etc will not work, but motor parts are more complicated, I dont know much about how the mr2 is set up but just because its a 5s block dose not mean that its the same, it could be compleaty diff timing and oreantation of parts, in the end fixing up a 5s is not something you do to get fast track times, you put a 3s under the hood for that, its something you do to make a fast street car, or when you dont wana risk a swap.

The 5S in the MR2's and the 5S in the celicas is the same motor, same tranny too, just different intake and exhaust writing.
