I have searched in the forums to see who has done a beams swap. as there is not much info on this swap
Some people rate it 190 some even 210 hp. I am talking about the red top vvti engine. Im starting to get info on this. So if anybody can point me to the right post/people. thanks... I checked dr tweaks website and hes done one, but not much info. The best is to get a clip, yes but these are hard to come by, so i need to know what is needed.. -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

I have a 94 GT-S (5S-FE). I had to use the BEAMS motor, my original flywheel and clutch my motor mounts. My original tranny also fit fine. As yet I have no Cat because the BEAMS has it on the end of the header under the drivers seat. I put an adapter pipe in instead. The BEAMS tach is also needed as the engine uses the new style ignition and the signals are different. your old tach will not work with the BEAMS. Wiring is not that bad if you have some previous electrical experience. Just take your time.

Just take your time. thanks man, im really going for this swap, the fact is i cant due to money issues. so far i have recognized i need engine ECU Cluster Wiring I can use my own tranny, my mounts. What about the other little stuff, like ignitors, air intake, fuel pump. I have researched sometimes the beams does not like a CAI due to the MAF having abnormal signals and running sluggish when the engine is cold. I am a member of MR2.com since I have seen they are doing this more often. glad to know someone has already done it on a celi. I am the NEXT FTW...... -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
