[Takumi-FujiWaraS...]

Welp decieded it's time to move on from hondas for a little bit and try something else, i acquired a yota not to long ago, and i've decieded to just part out my accord and move on.
Car handles great i like the look and it gets great gas mileage all ya really need in a dd. They won't be to much go fast parts put on this car, but it happens.

Heres a few old pictures from like a year ago.

Engine/Drivetrain:
Swaped 94 7afe (old one spun a rod bearing).
New OE clutch kit.

Plans:

They seem to atleast last 200k on the average, i'm talking an actual build not a rebuild and slaping **** together and hoping it will hold power you'd be better off just having few spares to swap in rather than hope to make reliable power on a slaped together rebuild.

As of now engine build talk is about as pointless as pissing in the wind, as i don't have the money nor do i want a project and i would need to do a little more research on the engine both hands on on a spare and on the web.
If i wanted something for straight line fun i'd finish the accord and keep it. What i need is a good reliable cheap on fuel, but yet fun DD and the celica is all of that plus it's pretty simple just like my hondas.

I enjoy it and working on it hasn't bored me yet thats a big plus. I'm 2 engine builds deep on my accord and i've grown tired of it (Sometimes i'd like to finish it for myself) & all of the idiots that usually come with the group which most are young.

This crowd seems to be alot less fanboi'ish & down to earth
