Don't Do Business With These Guys, XAT Racing Options

Wow... I just got off the phone and I don't know how to feel. Lol. Someone on here had posted a link to a company that does engine swaps - xatracing.com. So I went, saw the prices for the swaps and thought they were pretty good. I mean, $6500 for a 3rd Gen 3SGTE and all the crap they include... I think that's good. So I figrue this was for a GT Celica(it doesn't specify, but common sense tells me the ST will cost a little more). So I called to find out, and while at that, I'll get different quotes(3rdGen3S, Beams, GZE, 20Vblk and 20Vslv). I talked to a guy named Bill. First I ask about the 3SGTE. He tells me the price is online, so I tell him it's an ST. He asks what engine I have. 7A. Then he tells me it's impossible because of a crossmember and the chassis(if he was on here, i'd tell him SEARCH). lol. Then I ask about the GZE and he says they can do that(duh), so I ask how much more they would charge since I have an auto(I dont wanna drive 3 hours to Tampa and then have them tell me they have to charge me a lot more). He goes 'wait, it's an auto? man, you need to get yourself a real celica!'(that mofo did not just diss my celi...). so i ask again how much the tranny swap would be and he said it's impossible to put any 5spd tranny in there(lmao). he tells me 'for real, sell your car and buy a better one.' F*ck XAT Racing cuz they don't know sh!t. maybe they do but probably only those stupid nissan engines since they've done "over 400 sr20 swaps". i guess they dont know toyota cars too well... i'm just letting ppl on here know that these guys are full of crap. if i had a manual gt, i'd buy a 3rd gen clip for what? 3000 bucks and do it myself. those firggin idots. get a real celica? HA! i have a real celica and it looks better than the crap cars on their website.
