Hey, after reading a ton of info on doing a 3s-gte engine swap, and trying to decide if I really want to do this or just stick with my stock GT engine. Well, I've finally decided that I want to do the engine swap. However, my main problem is I live in **** hole town and no one here knows anything about cars and seeing as how I'm not the most knowledgable person when it comes to cars either, I would really like to find a shop or someone who can do it for me. The swap seems like a lot of hard work so I'm looking for a shop to do the swap for me, perferably one in the South West, like California, or Arizona. If anyone knows a good place that's dependable, let me know. Thanks

problem with the mr2 clip is that the mr2 harness is not the same....so good luck with that. you have to relocate the altinator to the front of the motor, modifiy the dip stick, etc.. get an st185 clip and make your life easy
