wa5 in my family we all have got fast cars, my uncle owns a supra single turbo 515bhp, my other uncle owns a nissan 300zx 400bhp, I once drove a 700bhp mazda rx7 which was crazy. allot of my cousins have subarus and evos. I just love the celica just want to do something nice to it

Umar, it would be awesome if you share some pics and your build. Assuming you are not a troll, no doubt you can understand why people are sceptical.

The kind of mods you are talking about put your budget well into the supercar realm. Assuming you can even find someone who is not only skilled enough but also willing to put their reputation on the line.

There are a lot of guys on here who really know about about mods;
JustenGT8
Jaffa
Sheepers

just to name a few.

Each of these guys has extensive knowledge and understanding of what they want to achieve and have worked long and hard on the cars themselves as well as building relationships with those people they need to do some work. It takes more than just asking on a few forums when you want to do something untried. If you are doing something untried, your best information is going to come from the engineers and mechanics you need to design and pull it together.

The forum is a great place to ask specific questions about particular aspects of a build. It is not a place where you are going to get a complete from beginning to end solution for an untested and untried idea.

In a not very effective way, what I'm saying is start with some more modest mods

Beams 3sge
2t/2tg/3t with turbo
Even a 1UZ is doable.

All of the suggestions have already been made by more knowledgable people than I.

Pick one, get the mods done. Enjoy large but modest power in a very light vehicle. Upgrade your suspension and brakes to suit. Then decide if you really want or need to have an even larger internet point score or if you'd like something you can drive.

I would like you to have a RWD 2GR/4GR install done since I'd like that eventually and you appear to have the money to sort out any problems. lots done in AE86 in the US.

However, if you are just trolling please keep going. TV always comes up with novel and entertaining turns of phrase.

If u want to start with something simple that has plenty of poke id suggest 4agte plenty of aftermarket support and easy enough to get u started. Ae71 crossmember and rack and pinion steering has been done heaps and is proven + ae71 came with a 4a so eng mounts will be close. Volvo diff for the extra power then do whatever brakes and susp tickles ur fancy. This could all be done fairly quick and easy and you can upgrade whatever shit you like whenever u like

I agree for ease of conversion and keeping close to factory balance/weight, 4AG is the way to go.

Except swap the 4AG for a 7AF block stroked with a 9AG kit, and turbo that instead. 500HP is then achievable with well planned supporting mods. Silvertop or Blacktop head works best (preferably blacktop), but 16v smallport/bigport can be used too.

Don't think anyone has tried a 9AG in one of these cars yet, so you would be original and the first person to do it. Provided you know what you are doing or find someone who does to build the car for you, but that's going to be the case in any conversion.
