hi guys, well i swapped a beams in my celi and its loads of fun, but of course parts are rare, and problematic to fix.
Just to give you an idea, the gasket set is 400 usd, so i dont even think of popping it open. But 95CelicaST got me inspirated about the V6, and face it 270 is appealing, and parts are galore here... Well i know the 3sgte is the bomb, the Beams is great. But why cant we play with our stuff here. Maybe start a shopping list, like the exact parts needed... IDK, its something only 2 6gc owners have explored.. Shopping list edited so far: This is from multiple websites, i will basically edit as i go along... keep info here... most info was obtained from GUOKY's research edited 6-14-2014 what i have done for me.... QUOTE - 2GRFE engine from a 2010 highlander with oil cooler (newer oil lines)(its a 5plug ECU harness, that will be discarded)
- ECU from an non immobilized RAV 4 must bee a 2 plug. (this is the most simple ecu) - OBDII connector. (Located at the driver's knees, get it from your car. if you are obdII - Engine harness, i went with a ES350 engine harness, it has the plugs i needed its a 2 plugs - E153 transmission (s54 will work, but you need to know you cant really hit it..) stuff you dont want to mess with - A five ECU plug (hard to get the extra 2 plugs from the dash harness, or you buy them for 160 from Guoky, plus the only way to get them immobilized is to get them new from dealer) - Immobilizer computer (you dont want to mess with this) toyota will make you spin in circles - Immobilizer antenna and key. (only if you mess with the above, lol) - avalon ECU, camry or any other ecu ( may have other functions you dont need, or need to wire, and will give you headaches) This post has been edited by njccmd2002: Jul 6, 2014 - 8:58 PM -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years...

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...

So what are the guys using as a base chassis, a Camry? i bet id be fun to have engine immobilizer and all that crap! 5 - 6 grand? im not sure you would have to, just assumed it'd be a snapshot kinda deal. that engine immobilizer is a BIG hassle. guys on the mr2 forums try to avoid them like the plauge. wiring will be the nightmare of the swap, but im sure tweak could handle it, or the guy on mr2oc that also does harness work. whos gonna be the first to have the balls to pony up? once you fab up a proper passanger side mount, and a set of headers, the rest of getting the motor in the bay should be cake. the question is will the hood close?  :edit: just to add abit more info to the disscussion, it seems from poking around the net some, that alot of the guys that use the 2gr, end up with early rav4 ecus' that do not have the immobilizer. they are having a hell of a time trying to find a work around for the later avalon and camry ecus that have the immobilizer programming. there are a couple of guys out there who have access to the propriatary toyota "techstream" programers that havent been able to get the non immobilizer vins to work in a immobilizer equipped ECU (apparently, all the newer toyota flashes are VIN based, which makes sense) http://www.mr2oc.com/forumdisplay.php?f=188 heres a good thread with alot of good "general information" on the 2gr http://www.mr2oc.com/showthread.php?t=366606 theres lots more there too. if your not a member, you really should be. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)
