After thinking for a while now I am dissatisfied with the celi with the 4age engine. There are just so many cars out there that can perform so much better and go so much faster. Maybe its just me and maybe its just my crappy tuning that sucked cause my car won't go any faster, but after a while. I'm begining to think that I should have never got into the Modding scene in the first place. There is no prize and there is no trophy for beating your rivals on the streets and there is no Reputation to keep when your ride gets totaled.
So basically, for those of you starting out your Modding career in the car world, keep this in mind. A stock car came in like crap to begin with, when you start out adjusting every feature in the stock car to make it look different and perform different from the rest. Your just pooring more and more cash into a car that would probbaly turn out to be different at the end and end up as something that could never quench your thirst. If you want a fast car, get one to begin with and then start modding from there. In the end, the time you waste and the efforts and money you put in will pay off. If you start with a slow car, nothing will change unless you have deep pockets. The Celica 6Gen is just not worth it to Modd nor any other cars that came in N/A with a Slow A** engine. |

I'm lookin to get the engine sometime in the spring to work on, then swap it in the summer, and then after a few years when i'm bored toss on the supercharger. 1mz-fe has around 210 hp stock. If things work out the way I want I'll have that through a 9 lb Fidanza flywheel to the MR2 turbo LSD tranny and heck who knows maybe some cams or somethin if i have the time and money. Either way a 210 hp v6 that weighs less than a 3sgte in an MR2 = fun! and a couple years down the road once I get bored I can toss on the TRD supercharger maknig that 276 hp with 4 lbs of boost under a warranty. Then you can change the supercharger pulley to get what toyota claims to be up to about 340 hp off of the same kit. -------------------- 1999 Celica GT
