OK thanks everyone for the replays!! But um does anyone know were I can find the 96 3sgte rear wheel drive setup I can't find any anywhere? I can't even find a nice 3sgte yet alone with the rear assembly. It sucks being in Pennsylvania I cant find any parts cars there so scarce around here only a couple and everyone who owns them seems like theyve had them for awhile and stillll love em! But yea I'd appreciate a good reply thank you everyone for the help idk what I'd do without it

I'm willing to bet you can go to your nearest junkyard and find one. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

I'm willing to bet you can go to your nearest junkyard and find one. We take your point and appreciate your input... We ALL know that you have fallen in love with 1MZ, however the constant push to make everybody go your way is getting tiring. I'm sure the OP has considered this option, but has decided to pursue the 3S-GTE (Which is a far more popular option), and we should accept this decision unless they request further input. Maybe you could fulfill your needs by getting one yourself  Generally though, I feel that the OP may be rushing into this, and in my personal opinion should hold off until they have thoroughly read many of the great build threads and resources on this website and are confidant making this swap. --------------------  SOLD :( 1997 ST204 Celica ZR -----> See it here on 6GC! 2013 October Celica of the Month XD Now: '00 NB8B Mazda MX5 -----> See it here in off topic! |
