Hey guys
I'm just curious on where you're at with the V6 swap. Could you give us a brief overview of what you did so far and what kind of problems you encountered? maybe even some picts?  reason for the post instead of pm is to share information Unfortunately for me, i'm still searching for a 3MZ and related parts. -------------------- ----------------------6GC's FIRST V6----------------------

Im so glad I have a 1MZ!
I just wish I had a celica... Anyways no updates really just thought I would add onto this thread because there are only a few of us that are doing the V6. Well I chose the 1mz because its a cheaper swap, no DBW, among other things. I think down the line doing a 3MZ/1MZ hybrid might be something I consider but not at this point. Ive only read about DBW systems and it doesnt seem like its gonna be fun to wire past. So a few questions for K-ESD and Tweaker. Would it be worth it to adapt a 5spd solara harness? Are either of your engines from Automatics? If so why bother adapting a Auto ECU, when there are 5spd ECU's? So is the goal to get them to run off stock ECU's for a purpose? I have 2 local shops that want todo Standalone's, I just cant justify the cost on a stock motor. Also I plan on boosting down the line, is the stock ECU up to par or is a Standalone better off? I know 5spd v6 1mz's are out there, I am still currently try'n to track a harness and ECU so if anyone has any leads please let me know. -------------------- I am a thief.
do not buy anything from me. |
