So while looking around i found a steal on craigslist for a 90 celica gt4 full clip, now i would like to get the 3rd gen but i can get this entire clip for 1200 bucks with everything but fenders and hood, thinking about jumping on it but i really want that 3rd gen, so what would you all do in my situation?

There are a bunch of them on ebay. When I say "about the same price, im talking about 600 bucks more... and youll spend that 600 bucks later on anyway to get a ct20b, a front mount intercooler, etc...
Ends up costing you the same money in the long run. This post has been edited by lagos: Apr 25, 2011 - 1:44 PM -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

We've all learned how not spending money for the good stuff now will bring lots of unplanned/unexpected expenses later. -------------------- Past - 7A-FTE: Will never forget you
