When a car is as old as mine, there is no place that sells performance parts.

Not that easy my friend, takes alot of patience and funds, you require everything and i mean everything from a 3sgte's top end and the crank timing gear

Once you do all that you gotta battle compression issues, swaping high comp for low comp, and might aswell do rods while your in there, that also requires ballancing the crank

Looks like I don't know enough at all lol. All im trying to do is get this celica pushing at least 160 - 170 but don't know where to start and how to do it for cheap. I could turbo it but have no idea what im doing.

To turbo the 5s is really simple. You just have to run low psi, approx 5-7 psi of boost. What you will need

Turbo
Intercooler
Turbo manifold
Turbo down pipe
Turbo oil pan
Wastegate if your turbo isnt internally wastegated
blow off valve
Turbo oil lines
Air fuel controller
Msd btm
Manual boost controller
Bigger injectors, na supra or rx7 injectors work best


I have a turbo manifold for a t3t4 turbocharger and a turbo oil pan if you are interested, id be willing to let them go for cheap, 150+ shipping its yours. The manifold has a external wastegate port but i will throw in a block off plate for free, manifold alone costs 200 bucks, oil pan ranges from 50-80. Ill see if i have any spare gaskets and ill throw thos in aswell.

You can upgrade the exhaust for better sound, cooled air intake or short ram. tint windows, black out tails, short shifter, and maybe try to find an all trac hood which is what im doing right now.
Celica's look good without mods so its hard to do much more lol. Cheers!

Cheers man! just got a cannon muffler fitted and it actually sounds amazing!! I've also been looking for a hood but no luck.. haha
Thanks for the ideas might put a short shifter in next
