6G Celicas Forums

unless i miss read, the mechanic never said the engine or AWD parts were included in that 7k figure.

to my knowledge it sounds like 7k worth of labor, and u supply him with the bulk of the parts.

like 4 other people have stated, "seeing is believe". so ill say it again, PROVE IT. show us the 3 6gc's

learn how to read....1st post

So with EVERYTHING included complete motor(4th gen 3SGTE), ecu, harness, transmission, rear 4WD conversion, labor, additional parts, and performace tuning (300HP), the whole thing came out to $6,864.50

learn not to be a dick. read the highlighted part.

Yeah it smells delicious

i wonder what the $.50 is for.

Wahts the deal? Any Updates??

post up shop info...if any internet or contact info...plz... post up...let us in on the shop...location....everything about it...ESPECIALLY Pictures.....

Dude we've tried squeezing info out of him. He won't give any.

so the mechanic can buy himself a Snickers.

Well I dont mean to be an a** but he only has one GT Four rear clip at his place and I want it for my car lol. So I need a little more time to get the money and I'll post the pics for sure and his info where you can find him. I'm about to go back and ask him how much just a AWD convert will cost, cause theres like 2 or 3 more people after me who want it done. All I can say is his shop is in Phoenix, AZ 85040.

Its part of the tax lol. Arizona is messed up.

dude i googled that and the colsest shop with the zip you gave was some american racing shop.

XXXXXXXXXX
is this it?..lol ill try to call...FYI, i respect your contribute to the site and for being a great teaser...but i do hope you get that conversion...it really don't matter to me if who really gets it...as long as i know it can be done...and it is closer for me than going to Dr. Tweak for the job....but can you do me a favor and ask how much for RIGHT-HAND CONVERSION??! BTW, are you the first owner of your celi? that is pretty low millage man...so early for a swap...im almost at the 200,000 mark...

Ya thats it Let me guess photoshop? And what do you want me to ask him for you exactly?

hahaha...hey bro...don't feel bad if i found out about the shop...don't mean it in a bad way...well at least don't take it in the bad way...but if you don't mind...since the import is going to be a front end clip and rear stuff for awd conversion...can you ask how much it will cost to do the firewall exchange from left hand drive to right hand drive conversion? the price difference in swap and for switching left to right hand drive...much appreciated for your help as a member and your time. if it makes any difference...i deleted it...and if i were you i would delete the posted pic too...oh btw...im a student and still saving so...no worries from me...ill let you post the info once you're done with ur conversion.

Alright I can ask them but that sounds damn pricey! you really want a right hand drive celica?

SH*T, why not...you're hitting the 7G mark already...

Well I guess your right sh*t I'd do it but I really dont feel like learning how to drive all over again One of the guys there have a right hand drive car dont remember what it was though but he said he was so used to driving on the left that when he drove right hand car he kept sticking his hand out the window trying to shift gears lol. I havent laughed that hard in a long time

Better yet I'll get you a work estimate like mine and I'll scan it for you I'm heading down there tomorrow morning anyways cuz I'm looking for a GOOD painter for my car. Any suggestions who I should go with? Please dont say Macco lol

all i know is...you're probably looking at a good 2-3k or more for a real pro looking paint job...and worse thing is, every auto painter will result differently and charge you differently...some are just poor painters that charges you a lot for crappy work because they didn't spend their time on it rightly, and there are those that charge you cheapy but does a really swell job because it's what they do best to get the customer coming back (if you're lucky you find these people), and those that charge a lot for their pro work (if they do a pro work on your car)...it varies...some have it well, others don't when it comes down to painting your car...so i really can't say... i have had my troubles there too trying to find a good decent painter...lol sorry man, btw, left hand drive, right hand? no real differ...you'll get use to it...
