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...

This is why I've decided to just slam and stance mine. I had all these money spending dreams, but I know that when I get all that done, I'm going to be bored because I'm going to run out of **** to do. So, **** performance. It's my DD and it goes fast enough for me. I'm just going to have fun with it!

I found I was losing interest and went searching for another car. Found a 1972 Corona MK1 2000, but it got bought before I could put the money towards it. During that week of saving, I realized how much I do love my car and started fixing the little quirks here and there and decided to totally change my build direction. Sometimes you just need to take a break and look for something new, but you'll probably be back to it again some time. Most of the owners on this forum have left, and then returned. There is something about this car that just brings you back to it, time and time again.
