Right after I picked up a 93 alltrac rolling chassis I finally located a 94 celica after 5 months of looking. The price was right and its a pre-OBD2 that was pretty clean minus the bodywork. Only bad part was a lien from a bank that was no longer in existence but that ended up being not that big a deal with a lein release arriving in the mail a week and a half later. Already manual and is a blast to drive more so then my camry. I was planning on parking it for the summer given my new alltrac project and finishing up the rest of the work on my circuit race mr2. Needless to say thats not the plan anymore. It is the project that needs the least amount of work (or so I thought) figured I could finish this one along side the mr2 before starting the trac.

Yeah without a swap its never going to be that fast. I havent decided which way Im going to go with it. I have spare mr2 & alltrac parts trannies and a spare 3sgte & 5vzfe I just have a alltrac rolling chassis that needs a motor/transmission more then this does.
 Hypnotic teal mica is a color Ive had a soft spot for. This s2000 is painted the color and it looks pretty good. This post has been edited by fhalperformance: May 29, 2013 - 7:20 PM -------------------- 2000 tundra - DD tow vehicle
