Hello, I'm a newbie. I recently (like 2-3 months ago) bought a 95 Celica ST. Its damn enjoyable to drive but its got fairly high kilometers on it. Yesterday while switching spots in my driveway I was told that it was blowing a bit of white smoke not too much, but enough for me to notice when I turned my head and looked.
My first question: Is this a normal thing to have happen with a high km 7A-FE while starting cold? The engine and transmission have just under 280,000km. My next question: How many kms does the average 7A-FE run? Now when I bought this thing, I was half expecting to replace the drivetrain within a year partly because of how much milage was on it and partly because I like like to take **** apart and modify it. So my last question is: What fun swaps can I do on a student budget? As for that one, I don't really know what I want. I like the idea of NA because of quick response and usable power, but I'm kind of addicted to the sound of a turbo. The V6 swap would also be a cool idea but only if I can retain my manual transmission. Its also pretty hard for me to locate parts considering I have absolutely no idea where to start and where I should source my parts since I no nobody who's actually modified their car for speed. Everything on the eastern side of north America seems to be about show and not go. That being said I know nobody who's swapped/built an engine, just kids with lambo doors and hydraulics. ![]() So if anyone knows where to get parts in southern Ontario, that knowledge would be greatly appreciated aswell. -------------------- ![]() (\__/) (='.'=) This is bunny.
