SIIIIIIGH
I'm having a small crisis. Ok it's not a CRISIS. Its more like a dilemma. So I bought a 95 Celi GT because it was 400 bucks and she MIGHT be a beast if I built her up and she's an IMPORT which means that there is after market support for her and that's awesome. ( I had an undying love for Saturns but now that’s over). So what if she had multicolored panels, smashed out back hatch, cracked windshield and NO interior. As soon as I saw her and her round headlights all I could see was her shot in hot pink, dropped on black 19's with a FATTY chrome intercooler. I began to drool and told my buddy "I want her". He bargained tried to bargain with me but he’s a cute emo boy and has no sense in his head so I got her cheap. Me and my BF towed her home the next weekend. First thing I did was the head gasket (with my 15 year old sister, she had nothing better to do and was trying to scam 20 bucks outta me so I made her work for it). Then this Celi RAN. she sounded pretty rough and when I was driving her the WHOLE EXHAUST SYSTEM fell off. I naturally made my lil sister go pick it up (SHUT UP, she had welding gloves on, 'Dense was fine). We bring this beast home (with NO EXHAUST so she's SCREAMING the whole way home). Fine fine, the next week I take her into the exhaust shop and they fab some pipes for me so after consulting my Satty squad about boost and exhaust size I decide 2 and 1/4 is good enough for a boosted Celi. She's not boosted YET but she WILL be. So finally she's running and this is good right? NOPE. She's missing the back hatch window. Keep in mind I'm rocking FMLA leave and when I'm working on this car my baby boy is asleep with my grandma fawning over him. I'm also sporting stitches from my C-Section too. Anyways, that Sunday me and my BF went to the junkyard as our "Uber hot romantic date Day". I found a hatch window and told the junkyard guy I wanted it. He told me if I could get it out myself I could have it. I tore that Celi up with a CROW BAR and got the hatch out with only a few dings. He of course tried to bitch about it, I snarled and growled back and I got my hatch window for 110 bucks (its 300 retail). I get home, shower and snuggle bug my baby boy and when he goes to sleep for the night I head out and fix my smashed hatch with the new window. AWESOME. Then my Hayden (he’s my son) got this lil personality and I sorta forgot about the Celi (and I went back to work too, like 12 or 14 hours a day). Anyways, my BF sells cars and they took in a 240 SX. What's that? MY DREAM PROJECT CAR. So my problem? Do I sell off the Celi for 1600 like someone offered and buy the 240 for 210 bucks OR keep the Celi? I’d love her and build her up…. Fix the body damage… BUT!! The 240's gonna throw down at the track FAR better than the Celi and that's sorta what I want BUT the Celi sorta crept into my heart and I love her =( I can't have them both, my BF voted NO to that already so what do I do???? Keep in mind, tuning cars is a hobby of mine and all I’ve ever wanted was a nice boosted car that screams and throws the **** down. So what should I do? My heart says KEEP THE CELI! but my soul shouts GET THE 240!!! Help me!

haha wow, never raced a car with NOS, maybe oneday... i know a guy who spends his life making "sleeper" cars... totally stock standard everyday cars, but this guy really goes to work on the engine and thrashes the guys in their big cars... funny to watch... unless its you eh!!!

thats true jdmart... what about in the supra?? everyone want to race you in that?? on streetfire there is hundreds of videos of guys racing supras

haha thanks man.. hey do you not feel satisfied with the power of the supra rather than the want of the elusive GT4 dude?? (supra)3.0 twin turbo and all that!

I never realized typing could be so hard until I read this post.

lol...Im 6"2, and its a bit awkward sometimes, but definatly worth it. Nice to meet jcbass

Sorry for the hijack thread btw jdmart

lol trade me for your supra

Good luck man. You gonna stay around?

^dude i suggest u cool it, because the guy ur trying to make look stupid is a toyota tech, and he knows more about toyotas in his pinky then u do in your whole body.

by asking for english, he means he doesnt understand your problem/what u think is your problem, rephrase it, and he'll give u some solid feedback, that will most likely solve your problem.

Alltracman...stop being a know it all douchebag ok? lol Some him the turbo! lol yahhhhhh lol

Try to get a pic to better show us so we can help you out. There are a lot of black parts under the hood.

dont do it.

your engine has another 75k in it easy. If I were you I would just save and do a 3sgte swap. At least then you have a tried and true upgrade path, not to mention it would be a bit more reliable (unless you are going to pay for a great tune on a 5sfte)

The exact same thing just different wording. What is wrong with your engine that you need a new one?
