Thought you wanted a turbo. An NA 123 can barely keep up with itself.

tdoublenastywitit 01-20-2018 10:09 PM

ya the interior doesnt seem to be perfect but i dunno it could happen. and interior is easy to swap if need be.

I called the guy and he said it sat in the sun for a few cali summers before he bought it and kept it inside and thats how the seats and carpet got a little weather checked.

And to the other comment, I dunno how you knew that I wanted a turbo but that is true. But I already have a few NA 300s and they work for daily driving. Ive never been a fast driver.

But yes I obviosuly would always like to go faster and have more options to do so

I don't think so, it is an aftermarket turbo as suggested above.

What do u mean by suggested above? I don't see a suggestion of that.

Your saying that the guy threw a turbo in the original naturally aspirated 617?? That'd make sense because I was wondering why he said "original miles" which wouldn't make sense if he swapped the engine

You might be too young to remember Rajay turbos :)

There are a number of NA telltales in the picture; e.g., ADA instead ALDA, AC compressor by thermostat, simpler throttle linkage on valve cover...

Fuel type "gasoline" in the ad, and for sale by dealer. This is a flipper that bought it for $4500 or so.

It's like this guy. I called him back in October, that I will buy it for 3000 max he said no. I told him he is not going to sell it. and it's still for sale;

That's funny ~ it's a decent looking car but with dents & scrapes plus a bagged driver's seat, not one but a Diesel Head will ever touch it no matter what .

I'd pick up the Celica, clean compared to the lot.
