3SGTE DREAMS, not really dreaming but thinking Options

[zigy]

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......

well i would go with just the civic..if it was just the engine I would give the job to the celica but since it also involves the tranny..and above stated hondas are better trannys..so do the civic..keep the celica for cruisin'
