Ryouxrs's st205 conversion, Project Frankenweenie Options

[Ryouxrs]

Ok, so after the last year and a half of being a member here and finally getting the 94 st celica on the road. im nearing the funding needed to do the 3s swap. of all the options of swaps for these cars, i landed on the 3s for some pretty simple reasons. its relativly straight forward, and has large gain for minimal input time. ( this is my daily driver. ) and as such when all the parts do come together i have a small window for doing this swap and driving it to the exhaust shop. ( 8am-2pm on a given saturday) so im very crunched on the time area so it all has to fit right, and be right the first time.\

this being said im at the stage of getting the clip.

a few things im still looking at are:

gasket set ( pretty sure i can get one for an mr2 and it will be identicle? and if so, what year of mr2 do i get it for? i am using the 3rd gen 3sgte engine )

255 fuel pump ( easily picked up )

drive belts ( once agian an easy find )

so here is were i sit at this point, im not looking to do anything more than stock for now till i can learn the car again after this swap, but rest assured there will be much axle breaking after i once again feel like tim allen in the quest for more power! lmao. If any members out there have input, or add ons to my needs list. please feel free to post up, i can use all the help i can get on this one. thanks

Ok!! Once again its been a really long time since my last post but after almost two years of having the swap completed I've finally gotten the celica on the dyno!!! I have to admit, what i saw was a complete surprise for still not being tuned, and I'm disappointed to say.. still no gauges either... but the numbers she put down and with how she looks now (car was totaled again this winter...) i finally found my name for this project. as the title description now states. heres a few pictures and a dyne vid. ill post up the graphs a little later on. oh, and if your still reading at this point i found out today that yes, with a sniffer test, no tune, a leaking plug wire and a crappy off the shelf catalyst the 3sgte will fast pass the colorado smog test!! colorado is second only to California with its emissions standards, so all the worry worts with emissions issues, fear not! well, enjoy everyone!









and here is the teaser video
