So i've had my 95 Celica ST for a while now. No engine mods, just wheels and tint. I'm nearing 110k with no big problems other then the car being too slow for my liking. So I set out to sell the car and find something else. Unfortunatly, nobody wants to buy a car with 110k miles, and those that did quickly turned around once they found out it wasn't automatic. Then on April 1st(good timing right?) someone hit my drivers side at a red light. The car isn't in bad shape still, just small dents and scratches on the door and fender. I'm in no rush to get this fixed, but I will be collecting the insurance money.

As mentioned above, the ST is just too damn slow for me, and i'd also like to AutoX with one of my buddies. Now that a few months have gone by of trying to sell my car and failing, i've come to love it again. I really don't want something else, I just want to be a bit quicker. Now, the point of this thread.

I want to swap, but I don't have much cash. What I do have, is insurance money, ~1k, plus my tax and government money coming. All said and done i'd have around 2 grand to spend on a swap. I know my options, but I don't know how much they all cost in comparison. Anybody care to help me out with $$ figures on getting parts? Myself and some friends would do the actual swap, so labor fees don't need to be included.

As for other info, i'd like to eventually go FI, and my power goal can comfortably fall anywhere between 160-200whp
