V8 muscle cars, V6/I6 tuner cars, V12 exotics, all things better and etc...
 I've said it a million times it's a nice car for what it is, but everyone seems to overlook that part. I had stopped but other people kept pushing the matter, it's like you were Civic owners in a past life or something.

QUOTE (richee3 @ Mar 19, 2013 - 4:02 PM) This thread needs to be retitled to "6gc vs. Box and/or V8 muscle cars." Enough of the pissing contest, everybody has their own opinions and each car has their pros and cons. Plus I'll take you all on in my 350Z!!!!!!!! where there are curves, youll eat my dirt in my frs cuz i dont need a fast car, i know how to drive! -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

Pssh, but it doesn't have a mid-mounted V10 like the Renault.

Joining the conversation late but i relate to the bored part... considered selling or trading in many times for a car with better gas mileage... even test drove a few prius but i love my vert its a nice looking car and i dont have payments so i decided to start saving for an all electric conversion using in wheel motors in the rear and filling the engine bay with Li-Ion batteries. after its complete (a couple of years from now) it will be as fast as having a 3sgte and not use a drop of gasoline and will be rear wheel drive the problem is saving up the 12k+ to do the swap. i deliver pizza in my celica and tired of putting half my tips in the gas tank, i'd rather give a 1/16th of my tips to the electric company.

OH! is that what this thread was about??? I didn't realize we were even talking about celicas anymore. but wow that sounds like a huge plan you got thought up. hope one day you can do it.

Someone has converted a Celica to electric. There's a post on it around here somewhere.
