Hell everyone. Been reading this forum for a little while and I started to liek the celica more and more. I need a car that will be reliable. I want a car with good gas mileage (24+) on highway and is fun to drive as well as looks good. So what is the difference in the GT and the other models? How are the celica's on the highway as far as ride? Do they have the passing power? What is the avg mpg? I am also looking at the 94-96 Prelude and 94-95 Nissan 200sx and se-r.
Thanks everyone |

Thanks once again.us 6g owners are just cool like that  i have an ST with low miles and ive stripped some weight out of it so might be a factor. the auto trans is geared really well to take advantage of the 7afe's torque curve. i mean, for 105hp, it doesnt feel bad in 1st and 2nd, but 3rd and 4th are another story. but ya if you like projects, a 3sgte swap into a 6gc is relativeley straight forward and theres plenty of people on here who have done it and are more than willing to help out. a 6g with a 3sgte makes one heck of a sleeper.
