>what made you want to turbo the 7a and how much are you planning on spending to turbo it?

Well I have the means to turbo it and I want to have a unique fun car. Im not looking for power so the build wont cost as much as others. And Im not 100% on how much it will cost me as I have yet to check all of the parts I will get but prob. No more than 1k


You will easily spend over 1k. Just for the research that I put into for turboing the 5s, it was about 2.5k or more. It would just make more sense for me to go with a st205 clip and get everything I need. If you can do it for 1k or under, that's great, but don't cut corners and get cheap parts.


Well I already have a turbo and downpipe so that cuts a lot of my cost right there, and I can also make my own exhaust.

That brought me to tears. I feel you dude. That's how I lost my Camry, my last baby. If there is anything I can do, please let me know. I'll keep my eyes open for another one for you. (I've got connections through work)

Something to contemplate (depending on your insurance check): http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=81706

That's the nicest local Celica I've ever seen around these parts. It's well worth the $ he's asking. It's also a 5S and a five speed.


God that blows. frown.gif

Make sure when the insurance tells you what the cars worth, to tell them all of what YOU have put into it. My estimate of my Camry went from $2k to $5,300 after I told them the work I had done to it.

I feel your pain about the wreck. I did a lot of work on my celica then I hit 2 hogs. I was sloop mad that my car got hurt. Hope you work it out and I hope that girl gets what she deserves for hurting such a nice car, especially after all the hard work. good luck bro!

here's what you do.
1. get the money for the car (if you have full insurance).
2. Buy it back (maybe a couple hundred).
3. Import a front clip with the money you got; cut and paste!
The front end is completely mangled. It's not worth saving at this point. It looks like it may have even bent the frame if you look at the passenger side.

i think you can keep all the part you want on thecar before they pic it up,
for me, he did not even check if the engine was there lol, cwm13.gif just to say

I'd try to take the fenders bumper and open the Hood and see if frame is bent. If it is not worth it but if its not then it defiently is to import a front clip. Gt4 front end and 3s swap win win
Woah, just saw the wreck! That is horrible!

But as many said, that check will be tasty! Glad you are aight.

If you're fully covered, the insurance company owns your car. I had to replace everything I took off with OEM parts from my Camry when it was wrecked. That meant I couldn't keep my speakers (because I threw out the OEM ones), I couldn't keep my $1,000 SS mandrel bent, full exhaust... My Eibach suspension went, so did my full urethane kit. Even the ever so rare foglight bezels had to go with her. Only parts I could get were my radio, spoiler, front strut tower bar, intake, and front emblem (because it broke off and it was the last piece I had of her.)

I cried inside watching my beautiful exhaust get dragged against the ground as they towed her away with only my handful of parts.

Maybe it's different for each company, but with mine... that's how it goes. However, the check (being that I got the car for free) was way more then I put into it, and left me some meat to build the Celica on.
