I am the new owner of a 95 celica gt hatchback, I just sold my truck and I have $2500 to spend on my celica. I want to buy a Turbo, what size should I put in, and would I have to bullet proof the block or is it strong enough as is.
Or maybe I should spend it on some custom graphics and a body kit w/wing? Or hell maybe even a system? I even thought about a 3s-gte engine swap but I dont think I want to go that far, or maybe I should. You guys are the experts, Tell me what you think. Thanks in advance for your help, -Brandon --------------------  |

Does anybody that swaps in the 3sgte plan on keeping it stock? Either way you look at it you are going to spend more and more money. There are tons of mr2 people with very reliable 5sfte and 5sgte set ups.
Timimg is the key to the 5sfte, Nuke will admit that was his problem too. Hell your car from what I can remember doesn't have 50,000 thousand miles nore does any 3sgte swap or 5sfte have ever. These things are new maybe 3 years old. -Bryan- -------------------- Member of Team 5sfTe
