i think you will appreciate the celica more once you put some hard work into it, especially and engine swap.

but no 4 cyl can keep up with a good ls1
put that swap money into mods on a ls1 and itl stomp.... c5 turbo kit will do the job!

BTW chevy is not sh*t!!! chevy rocks

You are comparing different cars made for different reasons.

The celica will own the TA in other types of races.

Im pretty sure you'll be getting the LT1 not the LS1 in a 95.

and most importantly V8 gas > I4 gas

[95st-celica]

the LS1 is 98 and newer...the LT1's went up to 97 im pretty sure...i looking for an LS1...and its still all up in the air...3s-gte sounds really satasifying but i just dont know...DAMN IT!!!

[DEATH]

satasifying

That's indeed a good word for it
Not to down the LS1's - I LOOOOOVE that motor - too bad I hate every sloppy POS they put it in

[x_itchy_b_x]

after thinking about it. id dont suggest the 3sgte, if its your first taste of boost. once it gets a foothold on you theres no stopping it from draining you wallet.

[Jeunesse]

^^^ i don't even have the 3sgte yet and my car is draining my wallet already... what more if i have the swap? lol

im use to it draining my wallet...my plan is to drop it in this summer with little mods (boost controler, a good tune, water injection etc.) then next summer go big with a larger turbo, cams, bore it out, forged everything the whole 9 yards) i still want to do the celica really bad but the thought of dropping 6-8k on an LS1 and being just as fast with out all this time and work just distracts me...A LOT...its all i thought about today at work...just weighing out the good and bad of both...and so far there quite even...i still dont know what to do

[Tigawoods]

your just getting pre-swap anxiety. a decent amount of work is lying ahead of you and you are getting nervous. just stick with what you have...we'd all hate to loose you in this community

[DEATH]

We've all been there - thinking exactly what you are right now.
For me it's the lack of mullet and appropriate hairband music to really give the LS1 cars what they deserve.
Plus boost is the greatest feeling in the world

[SoundSlut_dotcom]

LS1 over Celica any day.. love it or hate it.. lol.. , esp. after a swap.. whoknows what kind of problems u will run into w a swap.. $$ etc..
