Hello,

I am looking to finally drop in my engine and transmission. I have a 94 celica with a 99 Solara E153 transmission and a 5S-GTE engine. I am looking to get custom mounts made up and possibly a custom cross bar. I would like solid engine mounts, I’m not looking for poly mounts and looking to put down close to 800WHP. What are my options? I remember seeing the hard target celica in NJ years ago and he had a custom timing belt side mount that was shaped like a triangle and hung the engine and all the other mounts were solid. I am looking for a solution similar to that. This is going to by a 85% drag car 15% street. So I can care less about vibrations. I searched thru 15 pages of post and gave up so now I’m asking.

Thanks,
Eazy

Actually.. Before it was RWD, it had a FWD 3S-GTE Gen 2 that went 9.60 in FL at a test and tune, he raced the HKS drag Celica and won but didnt take the title as the worlds fastest FWD Celica because it was a test and tune event. he ran a 9.80 in Englishtown when I was there years ago. I actually spoke to Luis in person and saw the setup with the mounts when it was FWD. Later on if I remember they swapped to a 3TC engine, which was RWD then went back to a 3S (5S-GTE) based engine RWD.
