So ive been looking to do a motor swap on my car. and i wanted to know what people think is the better engine. Im looking at a JDM 3rd Gen 3S-GTE , or a 99 JDM BEAMS.
Ive seen over the net that the 3S is got more horsepower, yet ive herd alot of ppl say that the BEAMS is by far better. Any one got any good comparisons of the 2? stock comparisons of whats better, and/or modified... any input would be great. -------------------- VitalMotion.net -- Sbonnick

The thing that's nice about the BEAMS is that it's unique and it's a newer engine so they're usually very low mileage. Of course, you can also find a low mileage 3SGTE. And yeah, they make more power for sure (the GTE that is).
I can do the wiring for you if you end up doing the BEAMS... or the 3SGTE for that matter. -Doc -------------------- -Dr Tweak, 6GC's resident engine swap wiring expert extraordinaire Click here to see my swaps drtweak@phoenixtuning.com |
