Well, as some of you may know I as well am trying the 4agze swap. The other day my father and I succesfully managed to pull the 7afe and got the engine bay cleaned out a bit.

In the next week or two I'll be prepping the gze to be dropped into the celica. Right now I'm basically just replacing all the essentials (belts, water pump spark plugs) etc. Also giving it some good ole fashioned elbow grease and cleaning her up a bit. We hope to have it in sometime in the next 2 weeks. I'm not even gonna say anything about how soon it 'could' be running, as that never works w/ swaps anyway. But the engine should be in and mounted within the next 2 weeks or so.

Looking at the mounts today i realized why i was having some problems w/ vibration before, one of the mounts seems to have been ripped pretty badly, and will need to be replaced. In fact both the front and rear mount are looking kind of shotty to me, and I think I will replace them both, does anyone have any idea where i can get these replaced? And if it really matters w/ the AT mounts vs the MT mounts? Comparing the AT mounts on the 7afe, and the MT mounts on the 4agze I am thinking they are close enough that i can still use them, but any input would be appreciated. Heres a pic of the front motor mount that is pretty well shot, you cant see how bad it really is, but that gives you a general idea i think....

Got some more work done on her tonight, got the 4agze tranny off the gze, still workin on cleaning her up a bit. Thinking about painting some stuff on her and getting to be real pretty, but I'm not 100% sure yet. Got my first look at the flywheel and the clutch, removed em both. I am prolly gonna go ahead and get the flywheel machined, and definitely a new clutch. Basically I'm just waiting for JOHN to send me the axles so I can do the test fit, then We will know for sure what i'll be doing (tranny wise). Anyway, heres a few more pics....

Also, i ordered a new motor mount to replace the front mount that was pretty messed up, should be here by tomorrow (technically today), only 64 bucks not as bad as i suspected, still trying to find shifter cables, havent had any luck there.

Next on the list is changing all the belts on the gze, installing clutch & clutch master cylinder, and probably some of the newer cables. Kind of stuck here waiting to see what I can do, but there is lots of little things i can do to keep busy. Engine actually wont be going in for another week or two when my father gets back, so I'm gonna be taking my time wink.gif
