or a 2grfe and open a whole can of worms.

best thing to do now, is read, learn all your options. Hate for you to throw away a perfect engine, if its low miles. Because you wont sell it good. So you have some time. Who cares what your buddys car does. If all you want is to beat him, no engine swap is good for you. You need a car swap. Because you will always be power hungry, there is always another car that will be faster. than yours and that is a fact.

if you want to have some fun without a lot of hassle, a beams is good, but thats it, no more, no more modding and the power stops there.

1mz is another option to get a lot of power for less than a beams, requires more legwork.

the 2grfe, lol, never been done... wanna pioneer it?

Take out the rotor and gently hammer them out. Then the new ones are put in from behind. Any you tube video can show you how, as its pretty universal

Lol, those bushings, are somewhat easy to install.

I like the color choice!

Youtube for the lugbolt swap its pretty easy....just remember 90FT/lb of TQ is all you need when you tighten them wink.gif

and the bushings are pretty easy to do as well....I suggest ordering new crushtubes from toyota as well for when you replace the control arm bushings...they're pretty cheap.
If you need help with any of it PM me. We don't live too far away from each other I imagine

So my instinct was right, the Celica does look great in purple. Thanks, now I want to find a black one so I can paint it midnight purple pearl.
