Ive grown really attatched to my celica now, to think I was going to sell it a month back and buy something else 
So now im craving power, quite confident in my driving, and I think its time for some boost!
Im pretty sure im in for the long haul with this car, even tho its my first, Its just so fun to drive, has the looks (quite biased I know, so sue me  ) and is a toyota most of all!
I know it wont come cheap, im not expecting that, especially since I dont have the facilities to do a engine swap on hand, ill be looking for a shop located in brisbane to do the work for me.
The only things upgraded on my car so far is just a daiken heavy duty clutch, which hopefully I can still keep as its only a few months old.
I would like to do it all in one hit so its not off the road for _too_ long, so that hopefully includes engine swap, labour, FMIC, new exhaust system, air filters, the lot.
Basically im asking from you guys, and hopefully some people who have experienced an engine swap in a ST184 before to give me some pointers, maybe even a shop to go and have a chat to before I commit to this project, and most of all PARTS, maybe even a rough est on how much it could cost me.
Any help would be much appreciated, or maybe even pointing me to another thread on this, I did do a search but didnt find too much on the subject.
Thanks guys!
