So, since ive blown my motor now...hmmm..3 times. Ive been thinkin of what swaps i can do. So theres BEAMS, but thats like $5000 for the motor and a pain in the arse for wiring, plus different mounting angles, 3sgte but gotta do all the wiring + the piping + axels + all the stuff to get boosted. So im thinkin i might get a euro GT spec 3SGE. They are 2.0L, so its a bit beter on gas, but ive seen some 3SGE's have T-VIS. Do european spec motors have T-VIS?? Also, is the engine mounted the same way that a 5s is/could you use 5s factory mounts. Im guessin trans work too because its essentialy the same block as a 3SGTE. Any one wanna gimme a hand with some of this info?? Also any european 6GCers out there have complete harnesses/ECUS??

QUOTE(Dr_Tweak @ Sep 12, 2006 - 8:32 PM) [snapback]479109[/snapback] A 2nd or 3rd gen 3SGE is a good swap, but it's just as much work as a BEAMS swap. -Doc doesnt beams sit at a different angle as the 5s though?..i heard its somethin like a 13 degrees. but it should bolt into the 5s mounts right? and tranny should line up right?? |
