Last time I was trying to shift from "6" to "5" (in 105mph) , but, somehow I miss shifted to "R", my lovely engine blown up, the hood came off because the engine poped up and pushed the whole hood out!! I took it to the dealership, and the inspector told me I need 22k to fix the car, I think he is trying cheat my money, dont' you guys think so??

22k is about what a celica GT-S is worth brand new. thats the entire car.

blown motor and hood and stuff shouldt be more than 6k with labor, and im being generous on teh rebuild cuz it isnt a domestic motor.

Ok, I'm not even gunna ask how the fudge you managed to do this but jeez.


Anyways , here's my advice. DO A SEARCH.

Here's my second set of advice. You really need to slow down and learn how to drive a manual.

What I would do in your situation. Go to www.car-part.com and similar sites and get a wrecked Celica engine and drop it into your car.

yes, the dealer is tryin to rip you off huge.

guys, this has to be a joke post, think about it, 6th to reverse? u would go down to N, then all the way over, then back up to reverse? no way anyone not drunk out of their gourd would do that.....

yeah thats pretty unbelievable.. i don't see how anyone could manage that. Besides its not even easy to go into reverse.
