I live in north carolina and if you import an engine from any other state or country (especially another country) you have to contend with emissions and other B.S. from government inspections people... I was going to get the supercharged 4A-GZE engine but I don't want to go through all of that to get it...

SO after some people wrecked my Celica ST, I decide to get me a 2001 Camaro V8. And now I have had the oportunity to race a 2003 Celica GTS... I won and I have to admit it I have an auto going against a 6 speed and still won even thou my car is like 700 or more pounds heavier, GO FIGURE!!

I just wanted to say that in some states you have to contend with the government inspection polices and some people don't want that... Thanks later yal... biggrin.gif

When your thinking about the whopping 1 carlength you won by just think of the VERY big Cubic Inch difference. Do you really feel that proud?

Yah because I didn't let my car rev pass 3 thousand and he was redlining... In the end though... That was my best friend and I didn't want to make him look bad...

But remind people that they may have problems if they have to get their engines inspect for emission and other little things that on a stock car you don't have to worry about... OKAY LATER AND I WANT BE BACK ANY TIME SOON SO GOOD BYE FOR EVER OR AT LEAST FOR NOW...
