I've been a member since I got my Celica back in February. Since then I've seen lots of other Celicas on here and what others have done to them. Needless to say, this has instilled some thoughts as to what I'd like to do to my own. Today I sat down and "built" my dream Celica, just through what I've found out on here. Here's what I have so far:
QUOTE Drive-train: 1MZ-FE headers for the 1MZ-FE custom dual exhaust with Magnaflow catalytic converters and Magnaflow mufflers custom K&N cold air intake E153 transmission with LSD TWM short throw shifter for E153 Suspension: Tanabe coil-overs rear 3 point strut bar front 3 point strut bar Twos R Us end links set Suspension Techniques sway bar set JIC arm bar set Brakes: ST205 front calipers ST205 rear calipers and emergency brake system Exterior: Curren front end conversion Curren front lip TRD side-skirts and rear spats Euro spoiler blocks Kouki tail lights black 16" Enkei RPF-1 wheels 5GC side view mirrors S2000 antenna repaint in midnight blue pearl, purple pearl, or black pearl Interior: RHD conversion Leather front seats Japanese Pioneer double DIN head unit premium audio door panels replace speakers/tweeters with American, Japanese, or European components DD subwoofer with American or Japanese amplifier Of course most of this may never come into fruition, but some of it will. What does everyone else's dream build consist of? This post has been edited by Box: Jul 9, 2012 - 12:17 AM -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

Haven't seen much about the 2GR-FE on here, seen it mentioned but not anyone that's doing it. If going to dream big might was well go with the 2GR-FZE out of the Lotus Evora that makes 345 hp, right?
 I was going for a realistic build, something I could manage over time. Few people on here have done the 1MZ-FE swap, and have had success. The other option was a 3rd gen 3S-GTE, but it's more expensive and supposedly parts can be hard to find for it. Maybe could even run a small boost turbo setup on the 1MZ-FE, or find the TRD supercharger, to make up for the power difference of it and the 3S-GTE. Plan on getting some small things like the antenna, mirrors, and tail lights soon.
