i was just wanting to let everyone that has a Celica ST know that you have the same engine as a Geo Prizm as well as the well known Corolla. It pissed me off when I found out. I just had a new engine put in my car. I found one with only 9000 miles. not a typo, 9000. i got the engine, clutch, and installation for $1300. maybe we should change the name of the site to geoprizm.net. lol, jk.

Heh. At least we don't have a Metro engine.
I heard from somebody once that cavaliers have toyota engines in them. like the 95+ models
One of my friends had one, raced him, and guess what! I couldn't believe it...j/k I spanked him.

Well, one thing though: if GM has to use Toyota engines, that shows GM doesn't know how to make em'.

come on though, GEO, really, GEO!!!!!!!lol. i actually have respect for the little old car now that i know it has a toyota motor.
I respect any car (except 80's and 90's mustangs.) But i would never tell anybody that a geo had my engine.
lol yeah man, I coulda done without knowing that

| i thought toyota made cavaliers anyways |
I'm not sure if Toyota makes cavaliers... I really hope not... my G/F had a 98 before she got her 7th gen and it was the BIGGEST POS I have ever driven... All kinds of stuff went wrong with it and it was only 2 or 3 years old.
Newayz I will say that TRD make a pretty cool body kit for the Cavalier... If I find a pick I'll post it here
I got sick of lookin for the pic so I just scanned it outta my TRD allparts catalog... thats why its crocked.
Newayz... for a Cavalier is not too bad....

99 project version 3.0.. hello SEMA 2010 =)
ok so if we both have the same motor, who would win in a race, both cars stock, and the drivers have the same skill.
lol that's sooo sad, i used to have a prizm, before i got my celi .... i thought i was improving!
TRD really doesn't make much for our cars do they? What, springs, strut bar and shifter?
aparently trd now makes an lsd, also, thats just mean telling the st owners they have geo prizms

Geo Prizms with style though.
well at least its not a geo metro. suzuki or however you spell made the engine for it =)
Hey, Suzuki makes some very powerful engines.(but they are all made to fit on two wheels.) OOO, that Hyabusa.(or whatever)
Well, Toyota's may ahve made the Cavaliers....but for sure not anymore. The new Cavalier has an ECOTEC system that is all GM.
95 Toyota Celica GTDead for now --> Soon to have a 3S-GTE02 WRX --> This is for speed- Borla Exhaust- TurboXS BOV- Custom CAI02 Civic EX- MB Quart Reference 5.25" Components- Rockford MTX 8" Subs in the doors- Alpine Type S Rear Fills- 2x Alpine SWR-1042D Subs in a custom fiberglass box- Alpine F345 Amp for the front doors- Alpine M605 on each Type R- Phoenix Gold wiring- Alpine CDA-9855 Head Unit- Alpine Amp link- 2x Rockford Fosgate 1 Farad Caps- The best Viper 791 alarm install ever
this thread has been dead for some time, but i searched for 4age and found it.
corolla & prism = same car... joint venture between toyota & gm. the st celica has the same engine (good 'ol 7afe).
matrix & vibe = again... pretty much the same car... another joint venture. this time they share engines and both use new corolla suspension components i believe. who cares what other cars have your engine... if it works, it works. someone could drop a 3sgte into a pos metro (hahahah 3 cylinder car)... would you lose respect then?
i had a 97 cavalier before i got my celica def not the same engine
you're kidding me,
we all know the geo metro is by far the sexiest car ever created... and quite the performance beast too hahahahha
Just one more reason to do a 4A-GE/4A-GZE/3S-GE/3S-GTE/2JZ-GTTE(Just kidding on the 2JZ...don't kill me. >
>) swap...hopefully this summer... >
>
New Toyota project coming soon...
haha yeah my friends have a metro, and i can assure you, that thing is a beast...all 3 cylinders of it. it's a type-r metro though, it's wonder what those type-r seat belt covers will do, HAHA. they can smoke the **** out of my celi.

> with a celica, u get the good handling quick little mo fo that are sexy as hell...with the metro well...*trails off*
