Like the title says I'm thinking about it.

Stef's 7afte isn't going to last forever.
We have 4 cars and just bought a house a few months ago.

Thinking of putting the 3sgte in her car (we have a spare s54 w/lsd), selling her 7afte stuff, and parting my Celica.
GT-Four front end, side skirts, projectors, e153 from a 2000 Camry w/axle set up, JDM tails, coilovers, GT-Four front breaks, wheels, numerous upgrades throughout, everything will go.

It's more cost effective to part and keep the motor rather than selling the car as a whole because Stef could use the motor.

I don't drive the car as much as I used to and I really don't want to drive it in the winter in the snow, that's why I have the Rav. I still have the red Beams Celica so I'm still gonna be a Celica owner.

Maybe over the winter it'll happen, I'm unsure.

Thought & opinions ?

As much as I'd hate to see it (I grew up on this site reading your, Stef's, and Manny's builds) it sounds like you know what you want to do and a good way to achieve the goal. By dropping the 3SGTE into Stef's car and parting your 6g you'll be killing multiple birds with one stone; 1) extending the life of Stef's car and keeping that lovely 3S in the family, 2) getting some more space in the garage and having fewer cars to worry about, and 3) recouping a bit more money than you would get selling as a whole.

Good luck with it Dustin and if the prices are right...I might try and purchase a part or two.
