Hey all, I've owned my '94 Celica ST for about a year now, and my step-sister owned it before before that, and her mom before that... Anyway its been in the family a wile and has almost 200k miles on it.
I'm planing on doing an engine swap with the 3S-GTE sooner or later, but I've been reading about VVT-i on the new toyota engines... and I've seen it put on the older supra 2JZ engines... I was wondering if it can be done to Gen3/Gen4 3S-GTE engine. Also what tranny would you guys sugest? (Its currently an automatic, want to change to a manual...) |

not sure why you would want vvti on a 3sgte. it simply adjusts cam timing to maximize torque, you realize that? maybe you're thinking of vvtli but still rather pointless. lift works wonders for n/a but with a turbo engine it ends up being a limiting factor
