    I, Alex Nowicki, have officially decided to go JDM for a project.

    As of 1/30/2011, I have finally found myself a project car. Gonna be a while till I get this bad boy running but it will make it all that much sweeter once I do.

    It's a 1985 Celica GT-S with 120k on the body. Long story short, it's currently got a blown motor in it but comes with a perfectly good running 7mge (with a $200 Cometic head gasket because these things are notorious for blown gaskets), the engine that was factory in MKIII Supras.

    Will not discuss price, but I got it for a steal considering the condition the car is in as well as another engine.

    Let me know what you guys think!

    if youre serious let me read up on that car and figure out what we'd be able to pull off.

    what's the current suspension setup now? coilovers or springs? with some camber plates we might be able to stick with the springs if that's what's on it now.
