QUOTE(NaderG @ Jun 28, 2007 - 11:58 AM) [snapback]573230[/snapback] i guess no engine swap for me lol I'm sure you can find some kind of performace shop near you. I would go in there and ask them if they know any places or anybody that could do an engine swap for you, I'm sure they know a few. --------------------  94 GT - Sold -------- 69 Pontiac Lemans - Sold 88 Alltrac - Sold ---- 04 WRX - Sold 00 GT-S - Sold ------ 91 Miata - project/drift car 95 GT - Sold -------- 96 GT - New Daily Drive |

well , i dont want just anybody to do it , i want a person who knows all about toyotas , so that i can avoid as much post - swap problems as i can .
QUESTION : all of you who swapped their engines , how much trouble are you having with the engine ? would you call your car daily driver reliable or not ? |

i honestly decided that i should just enjoy the car's performace as is , i wont touch the underneath of my hood , i will just fix up the exterior and the interior and then later on , sell it and buy another faster car because 6500-8500 plus shipping is crazy too much to fix up a 10 yr old car , also after reading about coomer's plan to sell the celi , i now know that i wont stay in love with the car forever like i thought i would
