i have a 5sfe in my motor.. and honestly, its reliable, but not worth modding.. it doesnt produce 150hp stock.. highest output was the final years on the 2000 camry which had 142hp.. replaced with a newer 2.4L w/ vvti in current gens..
i was thinking of modding my 5sfe... but after the intake and flywheel.. i gave up and just hope one day it will blow so i can put either a 3sge or 3sgte.. modding the 5sfe just cost too much, and with the money spent will not outperform a stock 3sgte..
if u compare the lastest celica gts fully loaded with sunroof/leather/stereo and all the crap, its still lighter than a stripped version of an integra type R.. something to think about.
