Like the title says I'm thinking about it.
Stef's 7afte isn't going to last forever. We have 4 cars and just bought a house a few months ago. Thinking of putting the 3sgte in her car (we have a spare s54 w/lsd), selling her 7afte stuff, and parting my Celica. GT-Four front end, side skirts, projectors, e153 from a 2000 Camry w/axle set up, JDM tails, coilovers, GT-Four front breaks, wheels, numerous upgrades throughout, everything will go. It's more cost effective to part and keep the motor rather than selling the car as a whole because Stef could use the motor. I don't drive the car as much as I used to and I really don't want to drive it in the winter in the snow, that's why I have the Rav. I still have the red Beams Celica so I'm still gonna be a Celica owner. Maybe over the winter it'll happen, I'm unsure. Thought & opinions ? -------------------- |

Just keep it, you will regret selling, I don't drive mine, except a few times a year, honestly it would make good sense to sell it, but I can't. I have 4 vehicles, no room for anymore stuff, and so many projects going, I haven't got time to finish any of them. haha You probably just have the winter blues, pull it out this spring, and hit the gas, you will forget all about selling. I love all your celicas but honestly I would part the beams before yours, if that is an option, I don't know the specifics on overall chassis condition, and have never seen the beams, but your car was pretty damn clean when I saw it, before the swap, and it is one of the nicest looking swaps I have ever seen.
I am really frustrated after buying my house, It seems I don't have money for anything anymore let alone time for car projects, I will likely sell off a few cars this spring and buy one good one but I will keep the celica. I know I won't be able to swap for a few more years but still look forward to the day I do. edit: ok I am a liar my car is probably sold as of this weekend.
