Been having a crazy idea, bout getting one, and restore, not to original but to my taste. However been googling around and celicatech has no info that is worthy, a lot of lame forums if i keep googling.
Anybody here that can guide me. I dont have the car yet, but want to find out about completed engine swaps. LOL RWD, means 3sge altezza 6 speed. or similar. anyone with ideas?

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. |

But its been done. im more looking into the 2rz swap, looks like it could be less involved. -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years...

It has a good shell, only rust really is above the tail lights. Probably just cut it out and do something custom. The plan is to replace everything under the sheet metal anyway. -------------------- |
