well guys... that just about does it for me... there i was at the spot last saturday and watching people line up and take off is fun and everything, so i decide to join in on the fun, against another 6gc (lo and behold!) the guy that owns it says it was sold to him by his cousin ( a guy on here by the name of psycho or psyko something) i know the guy, and i start telling him about 6gc and everything...
god...2 much typing...MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT: line up with the car 1 get spanked.....TWICE....REALLY BAD!!! 2 get strange looks and laughed at...=humiliation 3 wonder why in the hell i got beat so bad 4 go talk to the guy that drove and find out he's been drinking and eating shooms! 5 wonder why in the hell the owner let him drive his celica like that (owner is a pal of mine) 6 look under the hood and find out its A GOD #%#%#%^# ST as well!! but a stick shift 7 ride home considered SERIOUSLY selling my car. im still depressed and its wednesday...dont want to show my face at the saturday nite meets again... someone please slap me.... or explain to me what happend...please:(

Aren't K-series swaps still ridiculously expensive? Last time I was reading up on them on Honda-Tech project threads they costed way more than a 3S-GTE swap. And EG Civics aren't exactly cheap either...everyone wants one.
Anyway, don't get too discouraged with your car...if you want it to be faster you can always turbo or swap. Even with just a 160-hp 4A-GE in my car it's a blast to drive. I don't race and the motor isn't a good choice for straight line drag racing, but the car is a dream to drive.
