Lets see. me when I checked the specs of a stock celica they werent flattering at all and I thought right away it needed higher displacement and horse power but when I test drove it
I realised that the power-weight and acceleration is fine it is the handling that needs attention so thats why the my first mods are the coilovers and large diameter preformance breaks now me I dont have a final plan in mind. the power of the car is satisfying for the time being and that is why I'm going in stages to slowly modifying what is lacking and then thinking what to do next. my initial budget was 60k deduct 23k for price of car, and 20k for stage one of modification and we have what 16 or 17 left? that will be used to raise the hp from 140 to around 200-220 I didnt get into that with my tuning garage but the first thing that came in mind was an engine swap, one of them mentioned something about shifting to silvia engine and converiting the car from FF to FR...some crazy shit man but they saying anything is possible its just a matter of money and time. What do you susgest stage two will be
