Looking for all information about 6 gen, new comer needs help Options

[SeanWoody]

I am sean wood and i am from southern orange county, california. I started out being a honda kid and got into trouble with the law and had to get rid of my car. I have fallen in love with the 6th gen. celica and i am lookin into getting a 99 GT. I am not to sure about any of this because i came from honda so i need help. What is the differents in the GT and the ST? What engines can i swap? Is there a JDM type of the car? what is good suspension? what would be a main company to go by? (honda has spoon, mugen, stuf like that) Wheels, bolt batterns? What could i do to make decent power for a nice handeling daily driver? and most of all, anyone know where i can get a decent 6gc around here? post me back or AIM me: "ThisistheWood"

Heres the thing you will be disappointed with. Honda is well supported in the aftermarket scene, Toyota Celicas are not. Besides the 7th gen, Celicas have basically no aftermarket parts. There are some, but compared to honda is pittance.

There is always a japanese version of the car, however unlike Hondas, Celica parts are generally expensive, and engine swaps actually require some work. You have to change ECUs in these cars. I kno alot of honda swaps that dont change ecu's not even when they go from nonvtec to vtec. There really is no company like Spoon, Hondata what have you, thers TRD which offers little parts and Tom's maybe offers a part or two, aside from that, zip zero.
