For some of you guys who know me on here or know me on a personal level, you've seen my celica transformation over the year. I have had my car for about a year and 7 months.
I've went from having a stock motor stock body celica to a 5sfTe celica to a gt-four front end 3sgte swap celica in that period of time. I used to come home and spend time on ebay to look for nice parts for my celica or browse and drool over others on this site on what they've done. But being a student and only working part time, I don't have the money to do the things I've done to the car. I am a little bumbed out because all my celica buddies around me have big things going on for their motors. Either building it up or upgrading to a larger turbo for more fun. I had plans for suspension work for auto crossing, but I just feel like giving up on her. Just no time and money. Lift up my spirits guys. -------------------- 98 Celica gt red- totaled deer

Beats my JDM dude! Sure you don't have Super Strut Suspension or 4WD but you do atleast have LSD!!!!
What's your power output? 230@7000? That's more than enough for a FWD? And with the turbo, You have the torque through the range which I can only get by winding out the engine to around 5000... I love driving my car, Why don't you go and love driving your car? How does it handle in twisties and hair pin roads? Does it stick to the road and power through or does it take you straight off the road? -------------------- Mike W

Not tyring to seem emo or anything, but I feel good. I'll take Bob Marleys advice and not worry be happy. hahaha. -------------------- 98 Celica gt red- totaled deer
