might say bye bye to celica, Its too slow, eats ttoo much, and....... Options

I might be saying bye bye to my celica in the near future. I was thinking that somewhere along the line, I might sell my Celi with the 4age swap for 5-6K and switch over to the more popular, yet hated by toyota fans, THE CIVIC!

Yes I am going to get a Civic, the one and only car that I can think off that is missing the arm rest in the middle of the car. I was thinking that I might get a hatchback, cause it looks decent and roomy, yet powerful enough to cream my Celi, then again it would be the only thing that sort of resembles the celi, cause its a HB. Then, Im gonna swap it with a GSR motor and turbo it. Plain and simple, Its a remove, drag and drop, then reconnect process for those damn cars!!!!. GOSH ARGHHH!! THis pisses me off so much. I want a more powerful car, but at the same time I want it to be simple like those hondas.

Anyways $1000 for a non-running civic
$1-3K for the DOHC engine. I can get it cheap if it was stolen ( ) [Not!]
Swap myself, 1 day process.
turbo, $2-3K
total = The price I sell my celi for.

what do you guys think??? Hate mail??? Praises??? Your an idiot comments? wat the hell is rong with u???

I Like it and want to keep it. It looks very nice and pimpin, but if you lose at every drag then wats the point in keeping it. I put in so much money for it already and Im like only getting so much if any out of it. Yes, its tuned right and stuff, but when it comes to newer models, or lighter cars. The celica doesn't have anything that screams Im a winner! Everything has to be swapped in or replaced. Then again this is how all fast cars are to begin with. ARGHHH!! Alright I will keep the thing even if it eats a hole in my wallet the size of south africa. Its the reason y I bought a celica rather than a DOCH prelude (wich was $1K less) in the first place.

Thanks 6G people!

I think you shouldn't get a civic. Civic hatchbacks dont even seem like hatchbacks to me. They seem more like mini station wagons. Don't sink that low man. If anything you should buy a Prelude. You said that you lose every drag race? From what I hear the silvertop isn't for drag. Its more for just plain racing. If you wanted something for drag racing maybe you should have swapped in the 4agze engine or something better. Anyway if you really dont like the Celica just sell it. Do whatever makes you happy.
