Brand new Celica owner, have a few quick questions..
1. I bought the car for less than 3k. previous owner dropped a 2.0 block in it from a 2000 Camry(sad right?) what is going to be my price range of getting a 2.2(or better) back in it? 2. are engine swaps really as awful as I've heard on these things? 3. whats a good sounding(not ricer) exhaust for these babies? I owned a 87 Porsche 944 before this, and have thought this'll be alittle easier to work on. I'm hoping thats accurate. Thanks for the help in advance! |

Just the block?Or the whole engine?For a full 5sfe swap, less than 600$ as long as you have everything besides the block left from the old 5s. 2. are engine swaps really as awful as I've heard on these things?What have you heard? They arent very bad, there are quite a few to choose from 3. whats a good sounding(not ricer) exhaust for these babies? The sp2s are nice, but rare as hell. Most of us non boosted run 2 or 2.25" custom systems built by an exhaust shop Thanks for the help in advance! This post has been edited by SupraKid: May 8, 2011 - 1:43 AM |
