cant believe im saying this Options

Well guys its hard for me to say this but I think its time for me to take a break from 6gc.
There's been a lot of "talk" about the 1mz vs the beams here for awhile and I feel like I'm in a losing fight that I wasn't even trying to have between 2 motors I really like. I remember when I joined it didn't matter what motor you ran or what you done to it everyone respected you for it an would do what they could to help you make you celica better. I feel like we've all lost sight of this an are too focused on trying to say what's best for everyone an the rest isn't worth doing.
Not saying I'm never coming back or I'm selling the cars or anything like that. I just think its best to take a break while I want to come back rather than wait till I don't want to. I've met many great people her that I am proud to call my friends celica or no celica. This site has taught me a lot an one day I hope I can do the same for it.
I'll probably be back after winter with a whole bunch of updates on the 1mz. If anyone needs me I'm on the 6gc Facebook page. Pm me on Facebook or text me if ya got my number

Sorry for the sob story post. Just feel like its something I had to say
Thanks for reading

Kurt; even though I've never driven in a V6 swapped 6Gen, I'm still very inspired by your swap.
I think on FB someone was trash talking my build and I was just like, "0.o - ok, whatever dweeb". Smack talking about how they could do the swap for less than $2k including the engine, blah blah. Sure, ok, maybe if you buy the engine and swap it in right away without redoing seals, etc first. Good for you! And good luck getting at any of that stuff when the engine is in the car 1500 miles down the road when something starts spurting oil... lol.
I didn't/don't care - my build is for me. My build is my learning experience. My build was achievable/feasible with the budget I had set aside. Its still my DD, I wanted something reliable, with some more HP for when I want to have some fun. I'm not looking to set records here...
I also have plans BEYOND my build too, so I'm making sure my platform is built properly so it can support my future endevors.
And as someone who's driven a BEAMS swapped 6GC (Outsider's swap, one of the original swappers, I think) - It was a tremendous inspiration for my rebuild/swap!

I have always been a fan of the unique. I'm pretty sure my final set up will be very unique. But like I said; I'm not looking to set records or anything, I just want to be unique/original.

I have mad respect for anyone who decides to take the path less traveled.
