I believe this is in the stickies about under engine swaps that are impossible......




Mods please update to swaps that ARE possible. That is totally insane.

Your front spring rates have got to be stiffer to accept that thing I figure right?! Please release details as you go.

The engine bay is huge, it's larger than my rx7 and I fit a 6.1 liter v8, with a front mount turbo in it. There should be no problems fitting it. The one problem he's going to run into is the steering rack location.

If he's using a Rwd transmission he's without a doubt going to have to move the rack and get into some serious bump steer correction. If you move the rack too far and have to correct it a lot, it'll probably drive like poopoo, very 'soft'. Will be interesting to see how he does it, getting the engine in there is the easy part.



What transmission do you plan on using?

correct steering is the issue the motor is in there on my engine stand means there is no subrame , which also means i can move it back a few more inches, the steering is really my one and only concern, the engine bay is huge lots of room the supra subframe would be to narrow in the mounts and would loose space , and also have to run rear sump and would also cause issues with steering shaft even getting to the supra loacation , gunna lookin into either a tubular subframe of sorts with parts of stock subframe , pretty much just the control arm and tube out all center ,,, i am going to look into the possibility to swap knuckes side toside and check steering angles , as this would put the steering arm on the front and move the rack down and forward under the pan by my measurment , not looking for a track car just something fun for the street , i have thought and planned for mosto of this for the last 6 months ,
supra rear subframe and diff with w58 trans , think it will be fine in a lighter car like this ifnot i will change it
