Ra23 & 18rgeu question for new person that has just started out. Mon, 29 November 2004 09:45 Go to previous message
heya there guys im very new to this forum but have researched a wealth of information on toyota engines. Ive become a huge fan of toyota celica's and the 18rgeu engine which im planning on getting in my next car.

I currently own a shit stock shitty rice burning mitsubishi lancer gli 1998 and im going to sell it to embark on a project to get a toyota celica 1978 ra23.

Now i do want to put an 18rgeu engine into it, i just havent had any luck finding out who specialises in putting these engines into these older cars in queensland and brisbane, ive just recently moved up here, and i want to get the thing converted to efi i dont want the usual solex carburators as they usually have.

im wondering exactly what the figure would be for a mildly modified and installed efi 18rgeu including computer (wether it be a modified ecu or aftermarket one) modifications would include basics such as ported and polished headers, oversized valves, mild cams and profiling if possible.)


and as for an ra23 celica, it would be difficult to find one in good condition wouldnt it as rust would eat the car alive. What would be a good estimate on dent and rust removal and then a respray in a deep navy blue colour for this particular model of a car?

it is a long term project as i have driven a friends older celica and loved it and wish to keep it for the long term, is the 18rgeu a good and inexpensive choice to make? or is it a bit to difficult to source.
