    Yeah tell me about money man. I am tring to save for collage but drop all of my money in my car. As for the 3s swap i talked with a bud on vvti.net and he said his shop could do the swap for 5grand motor and install. I really do not know what to do. I am torn.

    5g is a lot of money.
    you can get the full front clip of a celica with the 3sgte for 2k or less.

    Yeah but the swap is almost 100% custom. The wireing, mounts, I dont even know what and how the tranny setup is like., axels. There is a lot of work to make it fit. Also I am not sure if it will be worth it. A 3s only make what 240-260hp at the crank?

    depends on which generation you pick as well as the car
    celica
    gen 1:185@6000rpm
    gen 2:225@6400rpm
    gen 3:225-230@6500 also a limited edition RC 235(WRC)
    MR2:
    any gen:200

    If i were you i would look into the 3SGE (N/A version) the later versions 3-4 made amazing power and can be taken into the 200+whp range with bolt ons and some tuning!!!the gen 4 BEAMS(Breakthrough Engine with Advanced Mechanism System) version made 200@7100rpm(8300 rpm redline) to the crank stock NA!!!!!they rev very high and actually make some tq lol. this would be alot cheaper and give you more than enough power to rip it up on the street/track.they make amazing track motors, its also what im planning to do to my MKI MR2 ! IMHO the GTE would be too much for a FWD car...wheel spin would own you!

    dude fuck that...
    if you have money to spend... think about it... you're not going to have anything mindnumbingly fast.
    Just build something fun to drive, fuckin 4AGE 20v all the mother fucking way... u can redline it higher than a honda and its built to last. If you're gonna spend 5k on the motor of something, why a corolla? (just my 2 cents)
    If i wanted to spend 5k on a motor, i'd sell the corolla, pick up a cheap project, then go for speed. , or just save up some more and keep this as a DAILY and have another not so daily (what i did)
    Project cars never make good dailys (i learned this the hard way)


    btw we frown upon posts like this in the whoreslounge, such blasphemy

    depends on the motor really.

    toyota N/A > anything mitsu N/A
    4g63>3SGTE for a 2.0 turbo
    2JZ/1JZ > anything Mitsu for a 6 cylinder
    overall quality of cars toyota>mitsubishi

    4g54b is a pile of crap and you know it lol

    I disagree. If you are thinking about dsm's that shit is made in Illinois.

    My car is made in Japan and has way better craftmanship than any DSM. Most Mitsus here people think of as Japanese were pressed together in the Midwest.

    Think about that.

    And '99 3000gt VR-4 is one of the best put together,performing, and looking import supercar ever.

    So is the 91-92 Galant VR-4. <--Shameless self promotion.

    3000gt is crap
    supra/soarer/MR2>3000gt

    i will agree on the galant, i do really like those. the platform is much more refined than any eclipse, and it makes full use of that motor. i really liked your car when i had that legacy turbo.
