Toyota Tercel looks like a sweet ass little street racer to be pimped with a turbo and a few other things, but it's only 4 speed. Thoughts /o/?
>thoughts
sometimes i think about the futility of life
and the inevitability of death
but then i stop think about that

Put more gears in it maybe? Like if the gears were smaller you could fit more in. I think you can do that but I don't have a car so I am not sure.
I think OP needs to stop smoking rocks and save up for a car that isn't an absolute pile of shit.
You're talking about spending multiple times the actual value of this vehicle when you can iust get something more sensible for the amount of money you'd put into it.

Why?
I have spent more on my crx than what it's worth.

Tercel owner here
The tercel does have a 5speed option with gear ratios the same as the 4age's
A complete turbo engine runs your 1.5k which includes 5 speed tranny/wiring harness/ecu and in my case shipping. The swap is bery straight forward, this car is known as the poor mans lotus because it is insanely light weight and can get between a 6.7 seconds to 7.7 0-60. Its about as fast as a new ford fiesta st but 10 percent of the cost. You can even get a shell for free most the time
The manual steering rack is one of the best and the cars parts are interchangeable between 1987 to 1999 and were used in the paseo,starlet, and sera. This is a great car that gets underappreciated

That's definitely the thing that intrigued me first, the pic in the OP is $895

This is all good to know, thanks for sharing anon! Pic of your Tercel and mods?
A friend of mine did a celica gts swap. Fucker was quick.
Tercel a cuute

Im fairly sure you can fit a corolla 5 speed if you switch the bellhousing.
Ohh dammit OP here just realized its FWD
My little street racer dream is now significantly less promising than it had been, rip

It's not a Lexus, Dude.

Just get a different two door car. Buy a Skyline, (non-GTRs are still okay pricewise), some V8 powered car (can never go wrong) or just whatever is available in your country.

Is this possible on a paseo?

2/10 bait
impressive

Well I mean RWD is superior is it not? So why not just spend more money on buying stock miata or something instead of spending the same on a cheap FWD and modding it?

>4 speed
nice autotragic anon.
Manuals got 5 speeds.
Tercels are sick, here's mine. Swapping a 4e-fte in it next winter.
