So me and Dustin (Batman722) decided to postpone the wedding another year and buy another 6th gen project instead...
That and the 99 Solara I've been using as a winter car is going to my sister in a few weeks so we needed to have one available to each of us as a 'winter beater'.
We have my green 97 ST turbo, Dustin's blue 95 GT ST205 swapped, his silver 95 ST

And let me introduce the new addition to our Celica family,
1994 Celica GT, 5spd, black interior, sunroof, Florida car without New England rust.
Very bad rod knock and a very bad radiator meant we had to have it towed home where it stayed until it was again towed to Manny, Jenn and Randi's garage.





We decided to swap in a Redtop 3S-GE Beams
We cleaned it up, timing belt, waterpump, tensioner, prepped to go in











^inside the intake manifold, taken through the throttle body







And as of tonight, it is in the car and running,











And Manny fabricated the whole exhaust, from the b-pipe all the way back. I do not have good pics of it, someone else will have to insert them.
We should be able to take some better pics tomorrow in the daylight. So far, very fun biggrin.gif

It is fairly dead on forums now a days. I check in every once in a while. Looks like you and I are pretty close to each other if your profile location is accurate
