hey i was just curious but would a lotus engine be able to fit and run in our celicas since the engine is toyota based. i know it would be super expensive, but i was just wondering when i was reading a magazine with a lotus in there that, would it be possible.

a 6th gen celica hatch is 2400lbs
a 6th gen celica coupe is 2300lbs
i dont know if it depend on the engine...maybe 5sfe is heavier than the 7afe? maybe

a 7th gen celica weighs 2400lbs

a 2nd gen mr2 weighs 2600lbs

mrs weighs like 2200lbs i think....that's what i've heard

acura integra weighs 2500lbs (i put this down cause people bitch about how light these dumb cars and how they weigh just like their brother civic and later find out they're not exactly light - how ignorant!).

a 6th gen celica is NOT heavy like the s13 or s14. my friend's s13 coupe weighed 2700lbs. pretty heavy if you ask me. a stock hatch is also 2700lbs (weighed stock at weigh station - this is for 89-94 240sx)

a 95-98 240sx weighs roughly 50lbs more than the last gen.

anyways i know because these cars had been weighed and saw em'...yes they respond well to mods unlike the 6gc but w/e....

the 2zz, imo, is a great motor...it responds well to mods. if you have money, anything is possible.... smile.gif i also like the interior, very nice. the seats are incredibly nice and comfortable.
