Well guys I was ready to do a 3SGTE swap in my '94 Celica ST (auto)
but when I received the estimate my head kind of buzzed.
Right now I have a midly modded car, bunch of bolt ons and
trigger happy with the NOS. All_Show_No_Go bodykit/styling.
But the car is still not fast enough.
I'm also owner of 95 Honda Civic EX with B16A3 and bolt ons.

Well not to bore you with details, lets just get down to the price
of the actuall automatic-to-manual and 7afe-to-3sgte SWAP!!!
-3sgte swap (anywhere from 200hp to 240hp - depending on year)
-MR2 or Celi GT 5-speed manual trans (expensive - automatic conversion)
-wiring and hard-to-find parts
-labor

: equals out to anywhere from $6,300 to $6,900
!!! Well since that equals out to almost 7 thousand dollars I was thinking
to putting that cash in my 95 Civic (b16), I will not have the looks with the
Civic but I'll have the speed !!!
TELL ME WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK .... WHAT SHOULD I DO......

just sell your effin' sickvic and wa-BAM!  3s in da house!! biggrin.gif

I'm not selling the civic 'cause it's more reliable then celica
and a lot faster - it does 14.4 in quarter mile - on b16(a3)
and bunch of bolt ons (it's as fast as S2000) "ALL ENGINE" no boost

Looks like someone needs dragged out back and beaten within an inch of his life!!! mad.gif biggrin.gif
