Nice car. Im actually trying to trade one of my bikes for celica or ae86 with 1jz or 2jz engine swap or any enguine that's capable of putting out 300-350 whp. Can get a 77 coupe but i like the hoods on the ealier models. 155whp sounds like alot of fun for the street, but i like the way the JZ engines scream.

This is my 1973 Celica that I use for a track car. It's highly modified. I participate in HPDE track events with Car Guys Inc. at VIR and Summit Point. I've also started to take up drifting for fun. So far I've only done practice events, but it's a lot of fun and I'd encourage people to try it and see for them selves!
My Other Rides
This is my track / drift / tow vehicle.  Back in the summer of 2001 at the age of 17, my father passed this car on to me.  When I got it, it had a crate 95 Mustang GT 5.0L HO motor swapped into it and full police suspension.  It's now the beast of my own creation.  One of the coolest facts about this car is that since 1991, my Father and I are the only ones to wrench on this car.  I've put a lot into it, and it has served well so far. 86 SVT Vic
