    Should do this to my Celica?

    lol I'm TOTALLY KIDDING! :lol2


    Anyways, there's this ST165 that I've been looking at. It's at a really good price (IMO). $2500 for a st165 with a gen2 3sgte. There's only one problem though. The car needs a new fuel pump bracket. First off, how much would a new bracket first, and is it easy to install? (easy relative to a teen who has no experience). Or rather, how much would a shop probably charge to replace the fuel pump bracket? Secondly, can I feed it 87 octane, or do I HAVE to use 91 octane?

    Overall, should I buy this car?

    Thanks y'all. :mrgreen

    91 octane, and you'd have to drop the tank, two bolts, 5 relatively easy hoses to get to. i'm not sure how the alltrac fuel pump bracket looks like, but this is what the GT/GT-S looks like:

    the thing with the three lines.

    here's the best part: i had no previous car experience to doing this(i had to replace the fuel pump itself), and i just had the jacks that come with our celi's and 2 jack stands. took me 4 hours because my gas filler hose was a bitch.

    Oh snap, that doesn't look too bad.

    Unfortunately for me, he fixed the problem, and bumped the price to $4K...
    Which actually still sounds like a decent deal...
    Hope there aren't any other problems with it.
