New To Forum, need Your advice before buying Options

Glad to be here, have been lurking on this forum and thought the community was great so have decided to join


Basically im in the middle of a current car project which involves making a bmw 318xi. This car is basically supposed to be a 2dr mini suv that looks like the e36 line, im hoping when its done and at shows that people will believe bmw actually made it.


.... anyways ive kinda wanted to get a sport car for sometime, im tall tho like 6ft 3 and so most cars usually dont have a lot of tilt, i climbed into a 6gen celica and was delighted with how much space i had even without momo seats.

Im very interested in buying one of these, the gt4 isnt usually available here, im currious what would be involved and if possible converting a standard GT into a gt4 later on. and has anyone done a 6spd transmission swap? I know the next gen celica has one, but yeah that car is obviously too small and the 6gc looks nicer

I will post pictures of my work on my current project shortly, which has involved motor and tranny and transaxle swap and a massive ammount of body work.


thanks and hope to be posting more when and if i get this car that you all enjoy.

lmao sorry for the confusion!!!


the bmw motor i posted thats for my current project car im building... its a bmw m42 i believe its not all that powerful but the compresion is great for the turbo ill do and hopefully get her up to near 200hp which is why im going to do a transaxle job for a 5series.


but yah for the toyota celica, that is in the link i sent. and yah its a lookalike.


lol i know cars are so expensive here but for the same price range 18grand i can get a oldskool prelude vtec but i cant fit it for sure no tilt! and the acura integra oldskool but also not much room.

the toyota supra is about 2.4 million baht so near 100grand or something

My best bet will be to go to japan and cut one into pieces and then put it back together and swap papers or something


but yah the celica is a good deal at the 18grand, i notice some of you guys are adding gt4 parts to your cars, maybe ill join you all and try to eventually convert mine into a gt4

thanks for the greetings guys!!!!

I think there is someone here on the forums who actually is going to japan or something like that, and he is going to cut a gt four and then bring it to the us, seems crazy but if you think about it it is a a pretty good idea considering the money you are going to save!

I already have all the gt-four parts for my celica, i am just waiting to get it painted, do that if you are more concerned with the exterior and not the power.
after doing that my next mod is a swap, but that is still faaar from now.
