no man, thats not what i meant. check my previous post, i said the a 3sgte will always be better then a 5sfte and thats its a matter of preference i didnt say i was turboing my 7afe to be unique, that has been done as well as 3sgte swaps. im doing it because it is a lot easier, and faster(as in, i get it all in and working faster). i also did not say it would make my car fast. i also dont care what other people think of my car. i didnt get it to impress other people. i dont do things to it to impress other people. what i meant was, that one day i would like to have a whole GT4, instead of a gt4 engine in my celica. it would cost about as much as a swap would cost for my auto ST. you can get GT4's for about $4-5k from japan and bring them in as show cars. sure you can only drive 1500 or so miles a year, but its pretty easy to disable a speedo. for around $7k, i could get a RHD GT4 and legally(sort of, anyway) drive it. to sum up, yes a swap is still unique, same with turboing the stock engine, although some might disagree. people are now starting to put 3sgte's into 7th gens, i have even heard rumors of a honda guy trying to put a 3sgte into his car. there are plenty of celica owners that are not on this site but do have 3sgte's in their 6th gens. 5th gen guys have 3sgte's in thier cars too(excluding alltracs). how many people in the US have a 6th gen GT4? and i know what the VR4 owner was thinking, he was wondering how the hell he got beat. he probably didnt realize that a vr4 is not really the best car for freeway racing. im sure if you were up against a supra TT or a 300zx TT, the outcome would not have been the same. but its still a good kill. and GT2GT4, did you mean oil return line, cuz the oil feed line does not tap into the oil pan, and doesnt the burien kit come with a pre tapped oil pan?
