well im trying to sell my celica for around 8 grand, but i will prolly get less then that. i want something new with less miles and faster, thoughts that have come to mind are a 97 and up prelude, 300zx, supra (if i get reallly lucky and find one but i doubt that, mr2 turbo, i dunno, i just cant think. please give me any suggestions you guys have, i love hearing all you input. thanks.

yea i would say go with a 97-99 eclipse GS-T or GSX. get a 1st gen 6 bolt engine and swap it. no crankwalk or anything. those engines are as strong as 3s-gte's. it should cost you about 10K for all that if you look around. dont pay attention to miles because you will be swapping the motor anyway.

I have a 97 GS-T and its way faster than I thought it would be even stock.

Now I have recently gotten it dyno'ed and its at 324 whp and 316 lb. ft or torque. thats only with a new turbo kit, exhuast, and fmic. about 5K all together.
