I have a 1985 Toyota Celica Supra that I've replaced the engine in. It now has a 7mgte engine (from a 86-92 generation Supra Turbo) and a few basic mods like new springs, 3" catback, 62mm throttle body, open element SRI, custom headers from rabid-chimp and an in-tank fuel pump. Soon I'll be getting a ct26 turbo upgrade to push more boost. With that I'll need ARP head studs and a 1.2mm MHG, but those are both rather inexpensive.

Well i was thinking of passing my driving test first and then buying a car that wouldnt even come close to anything you guys own.
Then i figured id cry a little as my MkII Ford Fiesta stalls at the lights..........
Swabbo is that your car??
Well, I don't have any pics yet, but I have a MkI VW rabbit (golf for you euros) cabrio that I have ripped all electronics and mechanicals out of. I have a 2001 GTI 1.8T with an APR Stage III kit that was wrecked and bought from a junkyard, and I am am currently swapping, engine, tranny and electrical into the rabbit. I also want to try and cut the dash in, but may just have a custom aluminum dash built. I'm going to waterproof the dash and switches, and rip out the back seat and put a taneau cover over it and make it an all-weather convertible. By the time I'm done I will be pulling about 320 horsepower out of a 1600 pound car.
