6G Celicas Forums

im interested in 6 pt...possibly 8 pt.
not sure which one tufy has?

i think tanabe makes some.... sustec pro or somthin like that

thats just crazy... seek help elsewhere...

i dont have a 7a...check my pics. anyway a 7gen gts gets spanked like the rest.
this turbo gts will give me a better challenge.

ill be finding out very soon. a guy with a turbo 7gen gts wants to race
me. ill tell you guys what happens. maybe try to get picks or vids if
someone has a dig cam.

buy the turbo kit or swap the 2jzgte with vvt.
many many congrats. hope you have more
fun with this then th 3s swap. see ya round town

there have been quite a few ppl with swaps that
have had throttle cable issues. Usually the cable
that the motor/clip comes with ends up being too short,
or has been damaged. to remedy the situation
myself and others have used motcycle cables to
solve this problem.
later i came across another problem with the
motorcycle cable solution. the throttle cables
arent very strong. i have popped 2 over the
last 2 years. its not an expensive part but just
a pain in the ass.
so i did some research and
remembered Eric Hux at Hux Racing told me to try
Lokar for a custom throttle cable. with my
research i found that Lokar was trying to get in
the import scene. they make a cables 24", 36",
and 48". So I tried the 48" which is the length
i needed (same lenght as the motorcycle cable).
The 48" cable is for an integra but works great
for my 3s swap. I got it from www.southernperformance.com.
for 60 shipped and
it was delivered within 48hrs of my order to my
front door. it comes with all materials and instructions
needed to install. it took me about 20min to install.
so for all you 3s swappers hopefully this will
help you and finally remedy the issue of the
throttle cable.

where did you get the strut brace at. since its 20 bucks, ill make it the rear.

trd and denso irid work great for swaps.. it helped XST.

key word " most".
i still have mine.

celica gt radiator will work just fine for 3s swaps.
use the koyo if you plan on hi boostin... 17 and up as a safety precaution.
imo.. try to keep your ac... you ll need it one day.

it would probably look ok......well? i dont know.
the gt4 hood would lose its funcionality,
unless the vents were repositioned to
and resized to accomedate for frwd.
the gt4 bumper is perfect huge fmic (supra size).
someone should photochop to see if a
fairly descent hybrid could be made.
personally id be happy with a supra w/2jzgte.

it doesnt look bad. ive had mine for almost a year.
vents excess heat from 3s and adds more downforce.
pics on profile.

i dont want a kit. i have one (see profile). i want a varis gt4 front bumper for
less than 1000+ship

Anyone know where i can get the extremor front bumper for cheap.
takakaira wants too much.

its been done in fl by Totally Modified Automotive.
i have a pic somewhere.

the quwees kit ... i wish it was possible to get the wedsport kit.

tein makes coilovers for the st205 according to their jp site.
i wanted to know if you guys from over seas think its worth
the money and shipping or should i wait for the us versions
which will probably suck compared to the j-spec.

just get a trd hood like mine

apex n1 is not ... is not quiet as stock..
its close to quiet at idle.

apex n1 works great... i had that na 2.5 w my 7afe.... car sounded great
and i felt the hp (n1 w/injen intake and hollow cat).
with the 3sgte the 3.0 n1 has one of the nicest sounds ive heard asside from
tanabe turbo race medallion, mr2daul 3in race exhaust(some long japanese name
i cant pronounce), and the sickest exhaust (imo) that ive heard is the TRD
kauzuma race exhaust for 7th gens(my friend has it w/injen cai, trd japan
header). most 7th gen complain that its too loud but the sound is too clean.
just loud with a purpose.. if you will..

if 3 was stretched wider then it would look like the falcon kit for 7th gens.
im sure which everone you choose its gonna be awsome.
nice art and nice car.

car first!!!!!!!

my hopes of swapping started nov 02 on my way to import xpression.
7afe gave way doing 137mph on the turnpike(thats what i get for racing).
rod #4 kissed the sky and said no more. i still managed to show the car
but my daily driver was gone.
i hated waiting on parts but the job finally got done thanks to
Hux Racing in Cocoa. maintainence and tuning done at CAMS, Orlando.
