My donor goes into my local tuners tomorrow to get the relevant bits removed be it goes to the scrap yard in the sky.
The engine will then be fully stripped down and rebuilt, including fully show detailed. With the Ceilca going in to get the engine removed and the engine bay detailed before the V6 is dropped in. Hopefully it will all be done by May whenn show season starts over here. Have to say I can't wait as the celica as been off the road since the end of october. |

It's how they should have built the Celica in the 1st place, loads of torque. 15mph in 5th gear, push throttle, off she goes
