Which one question do you want me to answer?

But since all your questions/answers vary from location to location and shop to shop I'll just answer your last one and say 5 lugs.

1) depends on where you find/buy the parts and the shop who's doing the swap

2) depends on what kind of exhausts and intakes you're looking at

3) 5x100

Is the car fixed (i.e. no major body damage)? $500 is a pretty good deal.

1. A tranny swap depends, like said, but you're looking at $2000-3000 inc. labor.
2. Anywhere from $150-$600 for exhausts. Custom exhausts can run just $150-$200. For the intake, buy an eBay CAI and get an AEM DryFlow filter... Trust me, same performance for a fraction of the price. If you don't believe me, check out www.newcelica.org.
3. 5x100 is the bolt pattern. The Celica likes +35 to +42 offsets. Don't get any others.

If you need more help, head out to NewCelica.

2) Make sure you do the BlueBomber (BB) mod.
3) Depends on the width.

well it does depends from place to place, and what you are looking into, such as are you looking into performance wise or just for better MPG.

when you drive the celica GT, you will like alot. Great on fuel, easy to drive, perfect for a daily driving car.

i love my celica GT
