Only the GTS auto has the sportshift. Don't waste your money on trying to turn it into a sportshift. You'd be better off getting a 6speed. If you want hp's, you can start by getting an intake and exhaust. No offense but the auto GT is the slowest of the Celica family followed by my car. I say keep it as a daily driver or a showcar. You'd spend too much money making it fast while a guy in a stock 6speed can still whip you. That's just my suggestion. One person did make their auto GT fast, Xanatos. His is turbo'd, but it'll still get beat by a 6speed. Hope that helps.

get a BB gun and take some lessons. shoot out the tires of anyone you race :D
sportronic wouldn't be worth it as is. if you're rich, maybe a torque converter. regardless, i'd get a CAI and the new header for the GT immediately cuz it's fun. :)
