I have been around drag cars since I can remember. I've been racing since I was 15 unfortunatly they have been all muscle cars, and I am not downing muscle cars cause I love them. But I want to get into the import crowd and start working on new cars. I have chosen the 6gen celica basicly because it beautiful and can look very aggresive when worked right.


soo I have a few questions for all of you experts on the subject, and maybe I can help you guys too?

1. Are these 6gen celica's a hard to find celica because I can't find them on any local car lot?

2. Is it possible to engine swap the 2.2 4cyl for the 7mgte ( turbo supra engine)?


What do all of you Race out there?


I dont race a celica yet, but I race my 71 camaro on the 1/4 it runs 9sec. if you want any pics just ask me.




Thanks for all the help,
-Brandon

very nice cars

basically, to get 300-350hp, you will need the 3rd generation 3sgte(255hp) a tranny from a celica ss3(some have lsd and all can stand a lot of power for ~$300).

after those basic parts and the actual swap, you will have to do all the basic upgrades and see where that gets you. a 3sgte is said to handle about 400hp @crank and still be reliable on stock internals. you might have to upgrade the turbo and fuel delivery, as well as remove the boost cut and perform an ecu upgrade.

im leaving stuff out but that is the jist of it. for about $10k you can have a celica GT with a 3rd gen 3sgte in it ready for mods.
