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! |

Even for a full 5sfe swap, with a new s54 tranny should only run around 800$, unless you find a deal then it would be even cheap. Engine swaps for guys with STs are a pain because they have to change the tranny,motor mounts and a bunch of other things to GT. But for GTs its almost just plug and play.
