When I get her back with the 3sgte, body kit is next. I am having a very difficult time deciding on what to do. After that, its seats. Next year I will probably upgrade the turbo to a ct20b but I want to see how she feels with the ct-26 first.

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.

Current Project:
TEIN springs
KYB struts
vented disc brakes
stainless steel brake lines

All in my garage waiting for me to have a day off wink.gif

Future (November - April projects)

Exterior-
Full bodykit (Blitz front/Z glide side/TRD extensions/ GT4 spoiler)
Custom hood by me (i'm not telling tongue.gif but its gonna be sweet)
Bullet fenders

Interior-
Custom paint job (was planning to do this project this month, but time is narrow and I'd like it do it when She's outta commission this winter - Two tone. Black on top, silver accents, dark metallica grey for bottom)
Autoleathers.com leather seats.
Momo crazy with wheel, knob, pedals, and boot
Sony Xplod everything (this might get bumped to next month if I have time ... parts are already in the garage)

Engine-
This is a toughy as I haven't quite desided what to do as of yet. I have about 10-20 grand to blow on a vehicle come November. I'm either gonna get a small truck (Ranger) or another car (MR2 / Solara). I've I get the MR2, I wont do much performace to the Celica as the MR2 will be my performace machine. If I get the Ranger or the Solara, I will build a turbo 5S with 250-300crank HP. Using all kinds of stuff. I'll have to think more on this over the next month.

Swapping out the GT tranny for an MR2T tranny with LSD and a Clutchmasters Stage 4.
Front Mount Intercooler Setup
Water Injection
Upgraded Turbo

A lew of recent events some of thats being put on hold because my brothers n/a MR2 basically blew up so we're going to take that out, bore it, perhaps stroke it too, and put it back in.

The bummer with a project, is you it always cost so much more then you expect. Then crap break and you gotta fix that first...

-koni yellows
-some acesseries to my nitrous
-get the damn nitrous hooked up
- side skirts

Then I'm done.


--------------------
NASA/SCCA RX-7....currently under the knife
92 Civic hatch B16 - Sold
10th anniv RX-7 - RIP
The Slow Celica - Sold...and then crushed crushed due to street racing.

Future:
Install new cams
Reconfigure my CAI
Attempt to buff out paint.
Rear disks and better front brake cooling

Hypothetically:
New paint.

Im in the process of building my own tail-lights using the body of the OEM tails. Then I am swapping the high beams with the low beams, and putting a turn signel in the high beams (outer lights.)
After that I am putting a cover over the area where the rear licence plate is located, and finaly putting a body kit on.

I have alot more planned!
