I know what you mean. In Coomers case and my case... the shops were just being difficult. Mind you, my swap took longer (1.5 years) because the shop I went to kept putting other people's cars ahead of mine just to keep the cash flow going and it spent about 6 months of thta time in the body shop. What I should have done was take my car to someone who works out of their garage, like what my teammate did. A swap shouldn't take very long. It's the wiring that will take a while, but from what sphinx told me, Mike did his wiring in less than 2 weeks. I know you're trying to help, which is a good thing. But this is what I think: It totally depends on one's goals. Is a 3S-GTE swap worth it in a AT200? Well, to best answer this question, I would have to say that the answer would be totally based on (and relative to) ones goals and expections. If someone is seeking 250+ HP easily with not too much modifications, go with a 3S-GTE. If someone is seeking decent power, go with toyotaspeed's suggestion, the 4A-GZE swap. I knew that I wouldn't be content with a 4A swap, and I wanted to have a ST205 Hybrid (minus the AWD of course), which is why I went the 3S route.
