Hello,
I am a proud 1994 Toyota Celica owner. Recently I repainted the car black (with blue pearl). I know next to nothing about cars. Never had the time to learn, never was too interested. I drive a 2001 Honda Civic and this 1994 Celica has been sitting in the garage for a while. Although it's a great car! Currently the car has a bad engine (from not changing oil when I first got it). The engine must be replaced. What would you suggest to replace this engine with? I am looking for something better than I currently have (possibly a celica gt engine?). I want the entire swap to be under $2500 and NOT screw anything else up in the car. Keep in mind the car is AUTOMATIC. I am also looking to improve the speed of this 'new engine' without putting in a turbo or changing the transmission to manual . What do you suggest I buy? 1. Cold Air Intake? 2. ? 3. ? 4. ? Please advise! I would be really glad if you guys can help! |

since you have an st, and your budget is only 2500, i would definately reccomend trying the 4age 20v swap, from what i hear, its pretty straight forward, you dont really need the clip from what i understand and you can get all that you need for around 600 bucks... will give you around 145 to the wheels, not a lot but will feel a lot quicker, and a lot more fun with a high rev... get a manual tranny, its a lot more fun to drive, trust me. you could go that route, and still have some money left for some basic bolt ons if you want...
