I am just curious to see what non-ideal motors people have installed, attempted to install, or thought about installing into these cars. i.e.: a diesel/turbo diesel celica... anything different from the normal.

If you want it to be one of a kind, youll have to spend some good money. -------------------- |

Me an a buddy talked anout droppin a chevy v8 with a caddy trans that was fwd in my old 5gen lol but it would of been way to much work an could only been done as an auto Not to mention all the custom parts Needless to say we scraped that idea thats definitely different for a celica Thats going to be true for most "different" type of motor swaps. If you want it to be one of a kind, youll have to spend some good money. By "different" i mean something out of the ordinary for these cars.. which pretty much excludes all 4-cyl and v6 swaps.. those are a dime a dozen compared to what im looking for Anybody ever thought a trying something like a Cummins 4BT swap? |
