I was honestly hoping this thread was a joke...
 You need GT motor mounts. All of them. You need a GT or MR2 transmission, or have a shop modify the GT-Four transmission for FWD use. Then you need a clutch. The combination of disc+pressure plate has been covered many times on here. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money
