I have been looking into swapping my 1994 ST 1.8L w/ auto tranny for a jdm 3sgte. Is it possible to use with awd tranny in CA?
I am aware that the Japanese do not have EGR systems. Is it possible to use a intake manifold and egr system from a close relitive in california for smog purposes? Will the gt-4's gas tank mount in the same spot on the 6G st? I wish to achieve awd, is their a large problem that I am overlooking? Because not many people are doing this it seems.. Is it because lack of drivetrain/suspension parts in the US? Is their holes to accomidate the driveline bracket? Cat converter? exauhst, will it get in the way of the driveline? I am assuming the front ST halfshafts wont spline up with the jdm tranny? Will I be able to use the front hub assembly? How would I cope with the rear diff between the rear halfshafts?

theres not a chance "building" your own vehicle would ever pass any type of inspection UNLESS you know the guy giving you the sticker

theres not a chance "building" your own vehicle would ever pass any type of inspection UNLESS you know the guy giving you the sticker he said theres smog standards, I never herd of any other inspections. ASE mechanics are not certified welders either.. You would keep the origional JDM vin on the car. It costs bank to register like JIM stated. Another legal way would be to get a good deal on a GSX or something similar for like 3K and boom.. But than again you would have to be a hardcore Celica enthusiast to tear down a perfectly fine GSX (for that matter lets find a VR4!!) and swap it ALL over... It wouldnt be much of a Celica afterwords though.. Sounds fun |
