Hey guys,
So recently my celica's axle broke and went through the engine block. So now I need a new engine and axle. I got quoted from a shop to get the 2.2l (around 85k miles) w/axle and installation for $2700. I'm a little hesitant on doing that since my engine only had 94,000 miles before this happened. I was told I can get a engine for around $500 on here, anyone know where I can go about that? I'm thinking of putting in a more modern engine, one with VVT and fuel injection, would that be possible. Also, what other types of engine's can put into my celica? |

I thought we already had fuel injection  in these cars...QUOTE (zfjohnson07 @ Apr 10, 2010 - 9:47 AM) man if i had money id get a vtech  so now you're saying a vtec swap is cheaper than the already $2700 he's hesitant to spend at the shop??? -------------------- I don't normally drive fast, but when I do its on a curvy section of this island
