I wanted to share my project with yall , it all started when I wanted a bit more power and decided to do a 2zz swap. I purchased a 2zz of craigslist and the swap kit of monkeywrench.com. After gathering all the parts and installeda new oil pump and water pump I decided to install the engine. The engine ran fine for days until it started knocking, the bearings were gone. I didnt know what to do, I could have just put back the 1zz and sell the remainig parts but I found a good deal on another 2zz on a local junk yard. Long story short that engine didn't last more then a week and the junk yard would only give me credit so I let my bro have the credit and just to pay me. At this point I was about to put the 1zz back, but my bro decide to give me the gen 3 3sgte hee had purchased from a silver a celica. We had the crazy idea to swap the 3sgte in the mrs.
stock  Wheels and coilovers  Taking down the 2zz     Our helper     Getting the 3sgte ready      3sgte is in!

Thats awesome, tight squeeze (yeah yeah thats what she said
 )Should go hard. Whats the laws where you are, in Australia its illegal to have an engine older then the car installed. Im guessing its an adapter block on the stock mani with a gate port? -------------------- ST205 Group A Rallye GT-Four, #61 of 77............600hp GT3582r
