Its pretty sleeper looking to me. No one knows jack about older celica's besides the fact that little girls that are 16 and just received there keys to there first lady car drives em.. BUT i have heard of this swap. I was orignially going to do it in my 94 corolla , but due emessions it fell through.

not a sleeper at all ... especially for anyone that knows anything about Toyotas or Celicas
I know a pretty good bit about Celicas and Toyotas and I definitely consider this a sleeper. This car, before the engine swap, had the 5s-fe in it, which is shared with the Camry. It only makes about 130hp to the crank, and I can imagine a bit less the wheels. This is the higher trim level too (not including the all-trac), as opposed to the puny ST that everyone and there grandma drove. If the 3s-gte he dropped in is making as much power as he estimates, I imagine it would be pretty quick.... or at least a vast improvement over stock. :mrgreen:

its pretty much an ST185 ... or ST205 if its a 3rd gen 3S-GTE like the Celica GT-Four ... i say its not a sleeper because its an EXTREMELY common swap

and yes, i know all about the 5S-FE .... the same swap in my car would be just as easy, and much more sleeper

Ah, ok then. I see where you're coming from.... I didn't really think that most people would go through the trouble of doing a swap....

Oh, and by the way, what year is your camry? I had a 93' back in the day.
