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:( frown.gif frown.gif frown.gif

You want power but have no money. That's a problem.

Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two.

sucks living in cali...turboing = out of the question for me

yeah, same with the swap too.


How is the swap illegal? Get yourself a 94-95 mr2 usdm swap you have yourself a legal 3s swap. You can even get a 94-95 Jdm mr2 clip, but you'll have to take the manifold or something to get drilled for egr and usdm ecu, and WaLa... legal swap.... I know I work at a Ref station and i've asked my boss several times. Engine just has to be same year or newer of your car. I'm considering doing a v6 swap in the future just because it's easier to find newer 1mzfe's those then a 95 3sgte swap (since I have a 95 st). Then later on if I "wanted" more power, i'll just add a TRD Supercharger "CARB approved" and i'll have a legal 1mzfze.

it'd have to be a 94 mr2 usdm swap (for me)...jdm is out of the question. The main part is getting it to pass ca emissions smog while you cannot have any aftermarket modifications done to the engine. cali is real strict about that. whatever you can pull though...go for it.

no, if you pass smog, you pass smog. Just dont get your hood popped. those test only stations rarly check for EGR, hense why i passed with my GEN 2 jspec sawp. Just keep your cats, smog, and have fun.

see you're screwed if you get pulled over. so why do it in the first place? luckily we dont have those side test stations in norcal yet kindasad.gif
