SO, I've just come into a pretty decent chunk of money / raise and I want to do this swap.
Problem is, I have an ST. How much harder will the swap be on an ST instead of a GT? I've heard from various other car forums around the net that on a GT it can be done in an afternoon. Also, will I need to do any custom fabrication due to the BEAMS Red Top motor I want to buy being JDM? Just looking for general information on this swap, because I really love this motor, I want to push 200hp reliably on my DD |

avoid the jdm crap, buy a beams here in the USA.
in an st maybe a couple of holes to drill and some thing else i cant remember, should not be more difficult, except you need all the mounts. -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

Well, I recently also just bought a full authentic SS-III body kit for my Celica... Was trying to go for a red top full SS-III conversion. What's the diff between the JDM 3sge and the domestic? |
