I want to find me a 92-96 5spd camry. And spray it jet black. Tint limo all around. Throw some nice black rims on it. Tint the rear lights. Lowering springs and stiffen susp. Then do the all famous 3sgte swap. Would definitely be the fastest camry in my area. O'yeah I'm gonna de-badge it and probably get a 2 door camry.
Or.... 93-97 corolla 5spd, either white or black. Tom's body kit all around. Custom hi-flo exhaust. Rebuild 7afe, w/ low compression pistons. Then get a corolla turbo kit. all greddy turbo accs. Some Tom's lowering springs, and nice 6 spoke silver rims. |

Are you ditching your Celica? I'd only want one car that I pour money into.

stock 2zz in a spyder with a custom oil cooler and all the suspension upgrades.
I will probably get the new convertible IS300 when it comes out in 2006 or 2007 as my daily driver. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] 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. |

if i really get bored, i'll get the AE92 back from my brother, and toss in an AE101 4AGZE. otherwise, soon after i get a real job after school, or here in the next couple of months, i'll invest in a used IS300...
i haven't decided if imma dump the celica or not...it's paid for, so it won't be that much of a drain on me, but...it'd be at least a couple thousand to put down on the IS... -John- -------------------- |

Well as far as my Celica goes, I'm still working on the motor swap (getting parts and what not). Next week is my spring break and my little projects will include tinting my windows (mirrored) and further insulating my interior with dynamat.
If I could get my hands on an s14, I'd be a happy camper! -------------------- |

Most were Black as far as I can remember. Rare, but once in a long while you can find one. I have a '96 V6 (1MZ-FE) 4-speed auto. I love my Camry, and I found out on Saturday (Thanks to Mac) That it handle's VERY VERY well at 125mph. I plan to build mine as a sleeper, No one will expect a '96 Camry with stock 15's and no body kit to have 240HP. Especially since I took the V6 badge off. |

For me, as I was telling the Kwanzmeister, I have been wanting a street bike like mad lately. I don't like the dangerousness of them though... too many posible screwups can hurt you too bad. SO, I want the next best thing: An AW11 Mr2
For it I would either re-build the blue top or drop in a small port. Upon that I would install a easy going turbo kit and boost that jule up to about 200whp. I would also gut the beast and replace all the body i could with fiberglass. Build the suspension and re-do the brakes. We're talkin about a serious little rocket that could surprise a few here. |
