Hey what's up new to this great forum Options

[lxjoshxl]

Hey everyone this site is great. It's a wonderful source of information as for I love celicas. Well to start off my first celica was the st and I loved it right away. A few months ago this guy cut two lanes of traffic and t boned the front end of the car. To make things short it was totaled. It wasn't a total loss because they sent me a check for 3600$ and i paid $800. So now I am about to go buy this 95 gt with the 5F-SE for 1200$. I just had a few questions the car has above 200k miles on it which I know it will go for a lot more if I keep it stock. But I would like to turbo it. Now would I have to do a complete bottom and top end rebuild on it if im running boost below 10psi? Also I know eventually I would love todo a 3sgte swap but as I was reading a thread it said the fwd platform is not good for 250+hp I just wanted to have your guys input on this if it is worth getting doing all of that to a fwd car.
Thanks, Josh

First off let me say welcome to 6gc
Now as far as your questions go i cant really awnser them but i do know it would be smart to do a full rebuild if you turbo it but if you want to swap to a 3sgte then i wouldnt bother with the 5s just do basic maintenance
But your best friends will be the stickies they are full of info

But read the project threads too there full of info an give you a better feel of how ppl think they are after the swap an itll give you alot more ideas

Like look at me for instance a year ago o never thought id own another celica an fastforward to now not only do i have one but 2 im doing a v6 swap on my 94 gt an its all because of this site its full of great ppl an awsome info good luck an cant wait to see what you do!
