Well guess.. ever since i bought my Celica GT ive been wondering how its gonna b with a GT4 motor swapped in.. not that dream is a reality.. I just orederd my ST205 engine today and im setting this project off.. Well currently ive done all I can do to my beloved Celica GT motor besides get a turbo.. I would say overall im 21-10 Win-Loss Racing my baby.. my most great defeat was when I beat a Ford Taurus Show (stock 250 hp) off the line for a victory.. although if the race was longer he woulda won because of obvious top end reasons.. I think the max HP i had with my Celica GT was 165.. maybe more.. I added a cold air intake (K&N), performance headers, exhaust, and chip. Yea.. it held its own with a winning record overall.. but the 10 losses i had were all cars that are labeled "deadly" in the USA. Myd efeats were to a Infinity G35, Mitsbushi EVO, Nissan 350Z, Subaru WRX(Not STI.. u must b kiddin if ir ace that wit a celica GT) and the honda S2000. Trust when the swap is done.. I will find all these ppl that beat me before and were so happy b/c they barely beat a 130 HP stock car with their over 225+ HP cars.. and I will destroy them all!! I am a serious EVO hater and I will very shortly get a UK Liscense Plate that reads "EVOKILLR". But I had fun with the Celica GT engine.. I belive they are extremly quick off the line.. they just lack in top end speed.. and thats where the GT4 comes into play.. Ill have pics on this post when the swap is complete
