Also your going to have to lower the front exhaust pipe down a little bit and lower the center crandle frame too. Personal it not easy project if you not done them alot. The Bell housing (PLate stiffener) has 6 bolts and Smaay is correct it has to come off. I would not use the gasket I would try to return the aftermarket gasket as it junk if you have not open it.go to your local toyota deal and buy some Fipg as Smaay suggest. I am a toyota tech and those gasket don't last very long and they start leaking again. Taking off the center cradle frame wont drop the tranny or engine right?, the down pipe is easy, i had that outta the way. And the bell housing plate will come off without anything fallin outta the tranny right? Figure i may as well ask before i find out for my self haha. Thanks, appreciate the help. |

Sanded down the entire driver side in prep for primer. 80 grit, 180 grit, 320 grit. And i fixed my driver fender since i never really got around to realigning it. Tomoro, the roof and passenger side. No idea on color choice quite yet haha. |

I'd buy vis for a replica c-one bumper. Even if you were to find a real C-one Bumper you wouldn't be able to afford it $900 Shipped if not more. I've tried looking for used ones but had no luck thus far. Yes, you'll highly be modified your usa made c-one bumper. Almost bought one used from an st to put on my gt, would have just sold the rear bumper of course. The kid had it fit on the front completely fine without any issue along with the skirts. I ended up passin cuz i wanted a different style. No cracks. The rear bumper was super flexible just like they show in the vids. But with any "cheap" body kits theres gonna be atleast a lil fabrication to make it fit to your liking. Good luck on whatever you buy. |

there is no gasket. Toyota uses FIPG. its like a RTV sealant. you can get a tube from the parts counter. just use a putty knife and pound it between the block and pan to split it. I already got the gasket for it though? Advance carries a cork gasked for the pan. Its gotta be the pan or "gasket" cuz its not comin from anywhere else. |

I believe i am leaking pil either from the pan or pan gasket. Looks easy enough in the book at my work (advance auto) but those pics are black and white. It says to remove part of the exhaust and then itll come right off. Any one have any pics on this job? 94 gt 2.2. Thanks everyone. If no one has pics, ill take some along the way to help out anyone down the line but whatever advice would be appreciated. |

a ST202 engine is: 3S-FE 3S-GE 3S-GE redtop BEAMS will work with your manual(?) GT transmission which is: S54 Yes it will be FWD. Yes it will require rewiring in Yes, manual, sorry about that and its the 3S-GE ST202. And how much rewiring? The engine will mach all the mounts and bolt right up to the trranny then? If so thatd be awesome. |

ive read that the only thing you may have to do is buy new hydraulics for the hatch if they are old. other than that it should be fine. |
