I have started to dislike the whole "working on my car to make it awesome!" starting as an ST and now with a 3SGTE+E-153 LSD swap... I have just lost interest. maybe because its my DD, or whatever... I am just overly stressed on making the car good. my dad nicked named the car "BOAT" (Bust Out Another Thousand) which had pissed me off at the time... but as it is now, its starting to be more and more true. I turn around something breaks and I have to put more money into it. I just can't win for losing. I love the car, but its just turning into a chore. I keep looking at all of these amazing swapped celica's on here, and I just feel even worse. mine looks like **** and probably doesn't run nearly as well as they do as well. I'm sorry for complaining but I had to get it off my chest. I'm about to just throw a tarp over it and leave it be. I dont want to get rid of it... but I dont want to deal with it anymore...

i know how you feel. thats what everybody tells me, "your cars turning into a money pit." I bought the car swapped. And since day 1 its given me nothing but problems. I'm mad crazy about the celica so I like it enough to put up with it. It's my dd and I seem to just have problems every week. Its quite frustrating at the time. But When I do get it to work, it feels great.
Right now my car is stuck in front of someones house in another city because the master clutch cylinder went out. I toyed with aftermarket masters cylinder instead of oem. Sucks cause I have no form of transportation except my aunt. And have to depend on others for rides to work n so forth. cars has to sit for another 7-8 days till I get the part from toyota(conicelli) . These things are somewhat good on maintenance, but with swaps and aftermarket parts this is expected.
