you can always resell the big rotors and coilovers to help aid the cost of the engine since they are made for a gt four not a gt

Very true, The only real thing im worried about is getting someone to do the swap. around here all the mechanics are just old rednecks that say "whattin' tarnations is a Swap?" and "i dust dont fool wiff dem old foreign cars, getcha a 'maro and we'll droppa treefitty un er'" *tobacco spit*


It scares me...alot.

Hey Dr. Tweak...HELLLLPPPP!

What with all these supra owners droppin' 7afe's and 5sfe's in their cars now for bigger HP gains.

Anywayz, just buying a Supra is too simple. lol.

for the st205 there are some things missing. You would need the igniter, the w2a fump and heat xchanger, pass side mount, ect. It is better to buy a clip, not just the motor.

And the 2JZGTE. Hrm. Would be fun fitting an inline six in front-to-back and converting to rear wheel drive.

^ what he said

the motor doesn't sit in the engine bay the same way our motors sit in the celica.

if you can't do the swap, think about slapping a turbo on your 5s. it's easier to do, but you still need to pay attention to detail. or, you could read over defgreph's sticky post about the swap, gather *all* the information you can about it, and try to do it yourself.

if you run in to any problems, make a post on here. lots of people have gotten help with their own swaps from the FI forum.
