ok i got me a 1997 celica gt manuel i found a gt4 front clip for around 4000 dollars was wondering how much will it cost me to convert it and also my friend has a st215 caldina 3sgte motor should i use that one instead of the 3sgte that comes with the clip just curious

i was lookin at a gt4 front clip but i was told the conversion would cost me more than wat it is actually worth . so i was still plannin on swap motors to the 3sgte but was wondering about the transmission is all . the gt4 front clip is 4000 but the mr2 full swap is 1700 so i was just wondering is all still a lil ways away from making my decision

Mr2 is going to have a few things you need, not all, so expect to spend atleast another 2 grand in those parts equaling out to the 4k you could have spent with the st205 clip, and sold off the extra parts for money. Thats the short story... This post has been edited by rave2n: Aug 3, 2012 - 12:56 PM |
