I've been pondering on the fact that all my friends are building their celicas, but for what?
I have a buddy with a 3rd gen swap with a turbo upgrade, but for what? He doesn't plan on building a drag monster, is it for his own enjoyment? Or is there a purpose to build it? Show car maybe? Another buddy is building his 5s and also upgrading his current turbo set-up, but for what? He never pushes his car. My purpose is to make on bad azz rally-x car. I could give a rats ass on the rock chips and the strain I would be putting on the car, its for my enjoyment. Whats your purpose? -------------------- 98 Celica gt red- totaled deer

to build a purpose built track and autox car. i've autox for about 3 years in my mr2 turbo, and now that its finally clean and resprayed (was beat up the past 4 years) i dont want to race it anymore. plus ever since i swapped the turbo motor, i've been running SM2, aka against modified z06 vettes in my region. all pros. boo.
so i bought my 95 ST for $800. theft recovery. stripping the interior, putting in a cage, kirkey race seat (hopefully), shocks, and good tires on 15" wheels. the class i would run would be E prepared, and it's pretty much other cars with the same mods. im excited. not to mention, i love the way the celica feels. this will also do good at PAX or HPDEs (High Performance Driving Events) at local tracks. reliable and cheap. perfect This post has been edited by rj8807: Nov 18, 2008 - 8:31 PM -------------------- 95 Celica ST (currently in Motorsport Purgatory)
