We were all newbies once...I think everyone should go back to their very first posts and show that they made stupid mistakes at some point too...There really is a lot of hate towards newbies that is really undeserved. Not everyone knows that there is a search function, or that this stuff has been discussed before. So I'll get us started (even though I haven't been here very long).
QUOTE I've seriously been looking into saving up for one of these engines, but in addition to the enormous price (all of which I would have to pay for off $8.50 an hour for now), I don't know if it's going to pass smog in California, because we got it pretty strict here. Anyone around here who has one know? I don't wanna be an idiot and invest all this money into an engine that I won't even be able to run legally; it would be a pain to have to add on to the cost of the swap, just to get it to pass smog. oh man such a newb move |

QUOTE(fastgt @ Jan 18, 2004 - 9:37 PM) I've been really thinking about doing something major to my celica but I'm not sure what to do. Given that everything turns out the way I planned i can get the 3s swap for 4-5k. Now I was also thinking about rebuilding the 5s with new internal and strapping a turbo to it which sounds cheaper, but I need to know if it is really cheaper Also I heard that the 3s head can be swapped to the 5s block, can a 3s head from (just an example) a junked mr2 with a 3s be put on my motor I've done alot of my research so I know the details of both sides but I wanna know the opinions of you guys for internals and how your projects turned out for the 5sfte and 3sgte I'm sure questions like this have been asked before but I need all the help I can get before I start spending the money I have saved up [right][snapback]89295[/snapback][/right] and i still havent finished the 5sfte This post has been edited by fastgt: Dec 29, 2004 - 3:55 AM -------------------- 2011 Spice Orange Mini Cooper
