so is mine. I did have a hybrid 3MZ block on 1MZ heads but for some reason that engine spin 1 and 6 so i swapped in a full on 3MZ. i have my dyno plots on there too.
Ill have to disagree with you Presure2. there is plenty of room with the V6, it makes way more power than a BEAMS, a ton more Torque. And its really not that much fabrication. A custom Y pipe and passenger engine mount is all you really need. Weight wise, i dont feel any handling difference and i even have the E153 transmission. I just wouldnt put my money into a BEAMS over here, you cant get parts easily, and the engines are old and heavy. Its a very simple VVT system, not like the ones today. -------------------- 2001 Celica GT-S Turbo
