Last night was a very good night I must say. Normally I pay 210$/month for Insurance, and my License and Record are both clean. Thats alot of money for a 97 Celica, so much its ridiculous. So my friend told me he guaranteed me he could get me the same coverage Insurance for 120$/month. As of next month (i'm in my 3 months free right now with current Insurance Group), I will be saving almost 500$ every 6 months in insurance, which is perfectly fine for me! Sorry i'm just so excited over something so stupid tongue.gif

Ok anyways, I was talking to a my friend Mike who knows a bunch of kids that do nothing but swap Honda's and Acura's ALL THE TIME. For 1,000$ they will get me a 3S-GTE with under 40k miles (hopefully), Install the GT Tranny, Axle's and Motor Mounts and Swap it. 750$ for the 3S-GTE, and about 350$ for the Labor. So with that in mind, i've decided to go 3S-GTE instead of 4AGZE. If anyone lives in the Central Pennsylvania area and might be interested in a Swap, let me know. I might be able to hook you up.

These guys put a VTECH Head on a MR2 Turbo. tongue.gif

hondas just bolt and drop in


thats not entirely true. My friend has a 96 civic that had a b16 and a charger in it- he blew the motor about 2 months ago and just had a new b16 mounted into it.. same engine but different year. the shop which is know as one of the only shops in the US to do complete turbo kits on corvettes did his swap for him and they had a bitch of a time gettin all of the wiring harness to install onto the new motor... I actually just saw the car back on the road today so I guess they got it all worked out... newayz toyota swaps are alot harder to do than honda/acura swaps though

yep, you are right, there are some complications with certain honda swaps, thanks for clarifying what I said. smile.gif good stuff!
