R.I.P turbo 97

Well a few weeks ago I stripped down my 97 turbo to a stock 5 speed and sold the car for $4000. I left the coil overs, wheels, system, and most of the gadgets and things on it. I needed money to help a friend so I sold my AE86 and camry to help him and now he has a loan and a house to live in. I am almost paid back now so I ended up buying a 99 miata set up for drifting and plan to drive that for the time being. Here is one last tribute to the 5sfte that wouldn't blow even when I pushed it to 13 psi, a short clip of my last run in the car as a turbo running down the street;

If anyone is wondering the turbo, manifold, and stainless 3 inch downpipe are going up for sale. Make me an offer or something I need some garage space. Mods please leave this thread here I will make a separate for sale thread. Thanks guys you have been the coolest group ever, Tony, Nathan, Justin you guys are all pioneers and certified camry guru's in my book! Thanks for all the knowledge, support, advice and tips along the way. Sorry if I left anyone out everyone has been so cool on this forum. I will still be around checking in time to time. I still want to see a 4th gen 3sgte swap or rwd swap, someone has to be the first! Take care guys!

A. for putting someone else before yourself. You're a good friend.

B. St. Louis! A turbo Camry in St. Louis and I don't know about it!! Where in STL are you? I think I knew you were from STL but not that you were turbo.

You're much too nice for the rest of the world, my friend....

And on that note, good luck with your new project, and hopefully whoever picks up your parts has as much luck as you did on your setup and not blow yet another 5sfte

I would have never done something like that for anyone..... Takes a big man to do such a deed, and hopefully someone will return that to you!! Good Luck!

Damn... I was a big fan from the start... From when i first came across your cardomain... Before the 5spd swap pics where up...I still got it bookmarked... It figures the camry would have to go for a better cause... I thought it would of been a Supra like Tony (although he still has his)

Good luck to you
