I got the car running last week, I just am waiting on some custom axles to actually drive the thing, along with rear brake parts for the 5 lug/rear disk conversion.

Any comments?

Thanks for the great comments everyone smile.gif

There are some recent updates in the thread if you want to check it out. The car should be totally finished by early next week!

In fact, by the end of today you should see some pics of the rear disk conversion... using 6th Gen Celica parts!!!

Chrobis, I agree that I personally would rather have a 3SGTE... but in place of the 7A for the ST it would be a cool swap.

gh0st d0g, It was a very difficult swap requiring custom axles and mounts, and lots of other little things. The MR-S swap is easier.

celica3sgte: Yes. biggrin.gif


I would be VERY interested in doing one of these swap into a Celica, so if any of you are serious let me know. I'd do it for $1000 labor.
