Hey i got me a 94 celica hatch back [pics] and i was curious what do you think would be good to do to it...

It has 200x miles
Engine and everything runs smooth
Except the idle kind of shakes alot..
Interior is kinda crap
Paint seems fine
Ill need some rims


Im kind of looking to improve the performance a little..
Definitely want to improve the look of the car
And im not the smartest when it comes to cars but i know the basics

Suggestions?

Yeah but thats the 20V Silvertop. If I remember correctly there's about 5 iterations of N/A (NOT including Altlantic Spec and JGTC) and 2 of Supercharged.

Here they are:
16V blue-top big-port(black and blue writing) 115hp
16V red-top big-port(black and red writing)
16V red-top small-port(only red writing) 140hp
20V silver-top 160hp
20V black-top 170hp
16V Early 4A-GZE 145HP
16V Latter 4A-GZE 165HP

So depending on what you want to build you have to consider different ones.

The 16V big-port engines and the 4A-GZE are all good for boost. the Big ports have higher compression though but they are abundant. People do turbo the 20V but you would need to find some lower compression pistons since the compression ratios are 10.5:1 on the silver and 11:0 on the blacktop and it has VVT.

If you want to build a naturally aspirated street car you would focus on the 16V Red-top, 20V Silver-top and 20V Black-top. I've heard that the Black-top is weaker internally [citation needed wink.gif ] so most people usually focus on the Silver-top, expecting to add some power later on. There's a lot of people with a silver-top tucked under their hood here, so you could probably find all the info you need on this one. The first blue-top is also known for being a good street engine, the problem is that its hp is much lower to begin with so you need to do a bit of extra work to bring it up and if you leave it stock its not worth swapping, 10hp max gain on your 7A-FE or 5hp if you have a euro 7A and a loss in torque (1ft·lbf)

This post is getting too long, but that's some info on A engines.

Someone needs to verify that the **** I am saying is correct wink.gif
