Ok so I blew another engine, and im trying to figure out what to do. Basically I blew the stock celica 2.3, Threw in a jdm 2.3l, It ran like crap for about a year, and just crapped out on me today. So im looking at options. I am on a budget. But what do you guys think? Im starting to like the idea of maybe throwing in a 6 cyl engine. What would I be looking at? Otherwise, where can I find another good replacement engine? Or a good deal on a 3sgte setup ( and where i can get my harness done if i do?) Thanks for the help guys. I appreciate it as always.

P.S, my car is a 94 gt 5spd

Well I took all of your advice. I found a 5sfe in Rhode island for $615. It has 101,000 miles on it. I thought it was a great deal. That wasnt even the best part. THey through in a full, unused body kit, that was sitting in the car when whoever owned it, junked it. Talk about getting some good luck finally. Wish my order of operations wasnt so f'd up. Anyway, im going to try to drop the thing in this weekend if i can. Wish me luck boys, its gunna be a tough weekend
