obviously it busted someone's bubble...the funny thing is, is that it's just a forum, you gotta read the whole topic not just a single statement.

^^ ughhh.... fix up a celi for performance... its a great idea. Outside of the toyota world alot of people dont think the 3sgte / mr2 / alltrac swap is common. I meen its not as common as most turbo swaps like sr20. so to have a built 3s motor under a celi hood would be a sleeper.

The guy obviously don't know about the 3sgte and 3sgte that came stock with celica..its not like all civic have more than 127 HP either...you can take it both ways..and the celica weight only 2500 lbs, thats a major plus if you compare it to many cars out there...and they dont know they said it was about 300 lbs heavier than newer ones, which isnt true.

I hate to say it but I'd agree with that guy
the 5s engine is a slug above 4500rpm
our chasis isn't stiff in the least
and I've never been a fan of FWD performance


our cars are just lookers (IMO)
and i say that with respect to North American 7A / 5S engines

damn.. when i clicked that link @ work i thought it was a porn site (asia finest??)

i guess it's not. hah

but yea i got that a lot when i was looking for a 6th gen. EVERY SINGLE one of my friends is either like why would u get a 6gc when you could get a 7gc gts? or "why don't u get a civic sir or an integra gsr?"

i went through the same thing before and people thought i was crazy when i told them i wanted to mod a camry

I know the 6th gen was not meant to be a A class car but with some mod the 5sfe could be strong too.....right....? I don't own a 6th gen yet but its on my list as my next car purchase dont make me go the civic route... frown.gif

I hate to say it but dude is right. I just moved to Houston and there are tons of civics and supped up eclispes. I drive a ST and feel so inferior to those guys. But you know what? I don't care cause I love my car and spirit. I love the way it looks, drive, and etc. Sure I could save up and get a Supra(which I will do) but to have a 6g celica with a 3sgte is almost priceless to me. Why? Because its UNEXPECTED to the average tuner.

All's I know is that my car is fast enough for my tastes, and anybody who says it doesn't handle hasn't raced a friend to the bottom of an empty parking garage biggrin.gif. That was some GOOD fun.

No. A 5SFE is pretty hopeless.

chanh ur funny man lol laugh.gif i want to reply to this thread also to let him know that buying a used celica and swapping in the 3S is still cheaper than buying a new civic Si but i cant seem to get that "confirmation e-mail"? oh and i hope he's not dissing on the 5sfte cuz im pretty sure he doesnt want manny over there tongue.gif

remy: dont get discouraged on buying a 6th gen man...sure its a bit on the sluggish side stock but with mods (usually boost) the 5sfe can be a beast. we actually have a member here who is doing 230hp 270tq on his 5sfte setup (manny is da man! lol) or u could always swap and have some serious power and potential.

So what if a 3S swap is cheaper than buying a new Civic Si, a 3S-swapped Celica isn't going to make it any better. Maybe in a straight-line, but other than that I can't think of anything else where the 3S-swapped Celica is better.

I actually agree with the so called "Celica hater" on the 5S-FE. It ain't a performance oriented engine, period.

well, make a choice you can get a car ( honda ) or you can get a lifetime hot ride ( celica ) my first car was a celica 1987 ( I still own it and love to ride it biggrin.gif ) my second car is a 95 ST looking forward to swap a 3SGTE in it and my girlfriends car It's gonna be a 7th gen celi.

I love Celica and I think that the 6th gen has the best looking desing I love my car and It has all the plus:

cheap, reliable, durable, economic, easy to fix, great looking, and when comes to power, try to drive a 3SGTE swapped car and you'll see why everyone here talks about it
