hey good luck to you man on this.. im one for doing something differnent and wastin all kinds of money on it, but have you really ever driven a 7GC? I mean seriously man there slow! expessially on the accel - top end isnt too bad but man the 0-40 feels like it takes FOREVER!

I dont know, your doing your own thing and thats cool but I really feel like I gotta say,"IS IT WORTH IT??" the cost to HP ratio is not worth it, the Time to HP ratio isnt really worth it, the only reason I can justifably see why you would do this is just for the shear fact of saying... "yea I did that" but someone already beat you to the punch on it.

I will say if the only experince you have with motor swaps is honda motors then you are not prepared for this type of task - period. I have done alot of differnt motor swaps in my life and honda ones are the easiest by far... would rather swap a honda motor than change my oil filter on my 3sgte - seriously (3sgte owners know what I mean here )

I would personally look into something more benificial and unique like a 2JZ-GTE into a 6gc - it could be done with some cutting and relocation and would have alot more bragging right to it as that is the only logical reason I can come up with as to why you would want to do this.

who knows if your gonna do it then do it and tell us how it turned out and I hope all goes well for you but research the hell out of it, just dont jump in head 1st

thats just my two cents on it

Well, I have a friend with a GTS, modified with an Injen CAI, Cam Upgrade, Greddy Exhaust and Supra Hydrolic Clutch, and we've raced Del Sol's with b16 swaps and Eclipse GST's and beat them with 4 people in the car. I personally felt with those few modifications + lift, that the car picked up and took off very well, I was happy. I'm going to be looking into Turbo'ing the car soon after the swap is completed.

But as far as my personal reasons, i'm just interested in doing something that hasn't been done (the engine itself has not been swapped into a 6GC, only the transmission), and having fun while doing it, its what I enjoy doing.

I plan on taking lots of pictures, from the point I receive the Engine to the very end. I received a Digital Camera for Christmas, so I can actually take pictures this time for everything.

It wasn't my car, just a friends. He bought the car with the Supra Clutch already installed, really never got into detail, but its alot better than a factory 7GC Clutch *hates them*.
