When swapping the st205 3sgte engine into the GTS (GT) model do you need to changed the transmission as well? I'm asking this because I have talked to a shop that will be installing the ST205 3sgte engine in my car and he said no.
The shop is only charging me 5-6 grand canadian. Is that worth it? |

That price is for the st205 front clip being imported from Japan and including the installation. It is hard to believe but that was the price he told me. I was at his shop last week and this Japanese dude only does major modification for Toyota's. Mainly MR2's and the 5th gen Turbo Celica. Once I found that out I knew this guy must be trustable. I found him off the Greddy website since he is one of Greddy's authorize canadian dealers.
Thanks for the info coomer I jsut did a search and I foudn that info about the dude wtih the GT transmission pushing 450 HP. Thats crazy though. Did you find your guage for your car yet? I think I'm gonna need the guage changed on my car as well to get the higher RPM from the engine. Correct me if I'm wrong but if I don't change my guage or tachometer I won't be able to push it to the limit? |
