I run the same body with the bigger engine. There is potential in the body but parts can be hard to find.

Good luck with the project.

Hey man sounds cool, but it aint exactlly the the same car, I'm building the 4th generation frontwheel drive Celica GTS, and in that year mine has the biggest engine, cause thats when the Celica and Supra parted ways. Yeah up till that year the two cars shared the same chassis, but then in 86 they went different direction drivetrain wise. My car has what is known as a 3SGE powerplant, which is kinda the big brother of the 1.6 liter from the MR-2, being the 3S is a 2 liter. I have seen these cars run before and they were at that time pretty impressive, hope mine will be at least a mid-pack or higher car. You are right though that parts are not easy to come by, but I've always enjoyed the challenge of building what other people aint got.
