Hey everyone, i recently discovered this site and was very pleased with how detailed and kind everyone was when giving suggestions on upgrading "one's" celica, and well i have a simple question..

i have a 95 celica ST, 5 spd manual, and i want to put performance headers on it and well pretty much maximize my power output untill i can either do an engine swap or turbo charge my 7A-fe motor.. so which brand or what headers would you put on your 95 st??

thanks again, and its a pleasure to be around other celica enthusiasts.

oh yeah?? i was looking at the 4-2-1 headers, thinking about snagging one, i also noticed a 1MZFE engine on ebay for 600 bucks, would that be a reasonable swap in the ST?? i hear there are motor mount problems with other motors if you dont have a GT... either way im very satisfied with the St model, granted its not the fastest out the gate but it is fun none the less.

The 1MZ is gaining in popularity as the best OBDII swap in the US; at least 3 or 4 members have/or are swapping them in. You would have to have the mounts fabricated to get it in the ST but you'd have to do that with a GT as well.

Traditionally, most ST owners concentrate on enhancing the natural handling ability of the car by adding sway bars, coilovers, and other suspension bits which are effective rather than spending money on performance upgrades.

I don't really know much about them as I have a lowly GT, myself, and mostly just spend money on keeping it running well and looking pretty.

Some of the other ST members will be along shortly with better advice, I'm sure.
