So my dad put his foot down on me today. I can't buy anything else for my car until I get accepted into a college.

Good luck!!! Hope it works out and the mods keep coming!

I'm not selling it, I put the thing up for the bumper cause I was going to sell it to get some money for a GT4 bumper, but it's not going to happen right now.
Hopefully I'll heard back from some of the colleges soon so I can get on with things

Easy solution: Apply to a local community college, even if you have absolutely no intentions of attending. Almost all community colleges are open enrollment, which is fancy talk for "We accept everybody." You'll be accepted in a week then you'll be free to carry on as you were, buying parts left and right. Then you can apply for whatever colleges you plan to attend later.

Well I already applied to the ones that I want to go to, so it's a waiting game now
I'm in quite a predicament.
There's a Black '94 5spd GT for sale in the local area with 102k on it for $2000.
Here's what I could do.
Buy it, since I have the cash in hand. Offer $1500 for it and go from there.
Part out my blue car (make a decent amount back on that, over $1000)
Part out my car (about $500 to $700 back) or sell it for $1000.
The good:
Lower Miles on the engine.
Won't need to repaint the car.
Don't need to worry about the tranny swap.
The front end will be perfectly lined up.
There won't be any rust spot in the rear quarter panel.
The doors will be lined up perfect.
The not so bad:
Need to swap over all the interior lights from my car.
Swap over the JDM Tails
Swap over the Riser Blocks
Swap the Power Folding Mirrors into the housing from my black car.
Swap over the Aftermarket Intake.
If I go this route, then possibly no GT4 front end.

I say do it. If you sell/part out your other two cars, and your estimates are accurate, you should be able to get most, if not all your money back, possibly even make a slight profit. Only thing I would do is transfer the post face bumper from your car to the one you might buy. Post face just looks soooo much better. Plus you're right, the "not so bad" things to do really aren't that bad lol
taking too long to mod since '09June '12 COTM'95 AT200
Well I might still go for the GT4 front end, so if I sell my post face then I'll be able to put that money toward the GT4 front end 
The main thing it comes down to is talking to my dad about it. I'd have to part out the Blue Celica fast! because there's barely enough room in the driveway for 4 cars right now with all this snow. Once it's gone we could easily fit 6 haha
I wouldn't mind keeping my car as a winter beater, auto would be easier in the snow anyway. aghhh, idkkk.

go the easier way, if you have to make space, quick rent a 10 by 20 storage unit for one month untill you get the parts un need to sell they run about 70 bucks.
I rented a 5 x 10 and made my wife happy, had a lot of crap,
i suggest sell cheap to sell quick thats what im doing to the 1gc that i chopped....

or you could just get this:

look familiar to anyone?
btw massachusetts is selling 6gcs like crazy right now. just doing a quick scan of craigslist there were 3 or 4 with less than 80k miles. makes me wish i made more than $8.50 an hour and didnt go to school in LA...
but in all serious mike, that seems like a solution to almost all of your projects. if you can get your dad to go for it and other 6gc members to bite on the parts, it could work out to where you have a car that better fits your wants and maybe even some extra cash for school

This is what like an hour and a half of work? Haha, that stuffs cake, I'd even swap over suspension, front ends, etc. if the deal was good enough. I say go for it man. Plus like you were saying, you'll get your cash AND driveway space back from getting rid of the other 2, then you can just work from there on a clean slate with 5 speed already done.

I thought it over. can you say
FFFFFFFFFFF*CKKKKKKK ITTT!
since I want to, I'm doing a RHD swap in the spring (thanks to Manny) it's more logical to be taking the engine out in the first place than to have no reason at all.
second, i just don't feel like going the easy route around this. i'd rather learn as i progress with her and create her into what I want. what it comes down to is that i'd rather build something than buy it.
so basically it's a win, win situation even though im not getting a lower mileage car

hey mike did u go check out the black 94 celica? if its in good shape ur better off just selling your car or parting it out and swap the parts over to the new car. And you dont have to do a tranny swap. I was actually gonna call the guy and see if he takes $1400 for the car I kinda miss the celica.
Well I'd rather get the experience and do the tranny swap than buy it that way already. Also, the fact that I'm already pulling the engine out means that I'm going to be doing a RHD conversion. If you want it, go get it! haha
why would you want to do a rhd your going to have a problem going through the drive through. And its not a cool having cars coming at your side when your coming out of streets taking a left.
its the same thing when i take a right, just opposite lmao and i dont go through drive thru's anywayy
so apparently the muffler off my parts car is a POS. $13 on ebay. wtf? getting a new one.
Look into a flowmaster 60? i think it is, reminds me of a greddy sp2 and has a pretty good sound too it, im most likely getting one soon, kinda tired of the way the cannon style looks
