engine conversions are a hassel.. i know from experience.

easiest is sell ur car and buy a gt-four... it will be a more complete car and more reliable than a modified car >__<

hi, i'm pretty much a newbi too...

i think that you should go for the GT4 half cut...

because the GT4 engine is alot stronger...

stronger pistons, bigger injectors, etc etc...

so in the long run you can do more with the car and get alot more power...

but it is also the more expensive option,

if you go for the other option you will end up building your engine to suit the turbo.

my supra was also non turbo, i wanted to turbo charge it too, but every mechanic told me to do an engine swap instead..

but then i decided to sell the car....

now saving for a evo 9... :yahoo:

Be sure to check the WA meet section. I'm sure the other guys over in Perth would love you to come along to meets.

Tell them Nelson sent you.

hey, got pics of your car?

I guess with your body parts, you could sell them to fund your new purchases.

And I tend to agree with the other guys that a proper GT-Four would be better than swapping the engine, the mechanics of the car just would be the same... FWD instead of AWD etc.

edit: haha, don't worry about that pic, just saw your other post.

There isn't much nice bodykit for the ST204. Although, if I am not mistaken, the OEM bodykit that includes front lips, sideskirt and rear skirts are nicest kit you can buy. Even the TRD ones looked like a retard.

But, I'll browse through my Celica tuning book and see if there are nice bodykit for the ST204.

And yes, that model follows the tradition of Celica being the baby supra (remember, celica and supra used to be one called Celica Supra - it's the super version of Celica back in the days).
