Hey guys, I love my 6th gen.. I also love rwd. I think it would be cool to transform my 7a into a rwd monster. Has anyone ever attempted to do this. My plan is to convert it and swap a 4agzte in there with a goal of 275 rwhp. This is a plan I am doing to start working on in about a year so I'm preparing my drawing board. As of now, I am swapping in a 4agze over the fall and winter for next spring.

btw this has been done to a 5th gen and it sports a turboed 1uzfe
me and a buddy have talked of this. We have discused keeping it all toyota, and using a 1uzfe, 5vzfe, 2rzfe, 3rzfe, or a 22r seems like the best balance wise would be either a 2rzfe or a 3rzfe as for the rwd part main idea was to import a gt4 rear floorpan with all the drive stuff connected, axles, diff, brakes, ect and get it welded in, weld in the mounting brakets for a rz series engine and have a custom trans crossmember put on as well. as for the firewall, either we were gona cut and weld a firewall from either a ae86 corolla or a ra65 celica (82-85 celica) lastly a custom drive shaft would be in order the rest would be cake -------------------- 94 stx coupe, super mario kart beater
