first off welcome to the forum, and i knew it was a honda kid by "whats good" lol dw i say it too. toyota parts can be tricky to find and get lol. its not like a honda where you can pick up anything anywhere and add power lol. if you wanna play you def have to pay in this world lol.

i am doing a 3sgte swap right now and its going in next month

this so far with motor is costin my roughly 5500ishhh but a got a good deal on the motor.

you can alsoo do a 3sge Beams VVT-i motor which is basically equivalent to a GSR. 200bhp 2.0 all motor. that whole swap will prob cost you around 3k-ish maybe a lil more. how ever ppl tend to say they get sick of the power and want moreee!

now you may say well then just throw a turbo at it and turn it into a 3sgte. no not possible with out doin some major things. the compression on the motor is to high for boost and wont work unless you put 3sgte pistons and head, pointless. the motor is like a GSR with the difference that you cant boost it like ppl boost GSR even the GSR high compression. lol

curren tails are a lil pricey and lil tough to find if you dont kno where to look.
sideskirts, well you have a vert and regular OEM sides dont fit right up with out a lil customm work. theres a thread somewhere in here on it.

good luck with the car! and def look into that TRD wing!
