mina ... that blue celica ....dejavu!? ...i saw a blue celi like by FIU yesterday ...what a beauty ... possibly you!
somebody else... my car is at the shop... i saw that car, its same color, it has fmic but has some ugly ass rimz... i wanted to say wuzup, but i had my mustang... and i was in a hurry to get somewhere..
mina
thats the first time i saw that car...the car looks really sweet both urs and who evers that is! i really didnt get a good look at the rims....
mina is your car at jamasco???
9k? wow, thats expensive. Still cheaper than a new car though. How much of that was the rims and tires? There's kind of a wide range of price for that. I'm assuming 1k. It looks good. Is it a manual? I have a auto right now, and if I'm going to swap to that, I think I'd want them to put a manual in with it. Yours included a new tranny right? Also, I like that they fit all the stuff right under the radio spot.
XXX_Mina's cost aint that bad seeing as how he has a full stand alone ecu, 3rd gen 3sgte, mr2 tranny, and other toys. 2k for laybor is about standard from any mechanic for an engine swap.
15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
so u dont need the stand alone ecu after the swap? old one can be used?
