good job shannon, good job jim on your first try. That euro lip is what I wanted when I was going to do my gt-four front end, I stepped back and did an ss-III front end instead - less headaches for shipping.

everyone i know who did their own swap always hit SOME bumps along the way. I mean they also caused a day or so delay each, but when only working weekends, it added up.
just impressed how smooth it went, and how you all come together for this... This post has been edited by Consynx: Mar 3, 2009 - 1:48 PM -------------------- |

I had my few bumps along the way.
I started out with a 91 celica gt and turboed it, this is b4 I knew manny and he kept telling me not to over on celicatech. After the shop put the kit on I have it dynoed and on the way home with the tuner driving the car runs out of oil and the engine is gone it spun a rod bearing. Next I source a 99 engine and have it swapped in since its the newest 5sfte engine thats what I looked for. Metal head gasket better oil pump and it's newer. After I have that installed my trans blew twice..so I sold it to my friend. I picked up the car from rjb the 2nd gen 3sgte and I go to a meet and within mins the tire falls off and I finally get to meet Manny who helps me with Jeff and the rest of the gang...While Helping me Manny and Jeff spot a lot of problems with the blue car that next to be fixed...Meanwhile, Jim's brother has plans of finding a 6gen with a blew engine and taking my old 5sfte engine and swapping it in since my friend was selling my old 91 celica...What joey really wanted was a power house 3s and I really wanted a nice turboed car that was black. Well we made a deal to have both cars done and to swap keys pretty much. That's how I ended up with this 99 5sfte After Manny swapped the 5sfte engine in and fixed problems that the original shop I brought it to had made the car has run very smooth and without any problems but the road I took to get the car like this was a long one and a very expensive one. I spent over 10k at just the shop alone with having the turbo kit put in, then 99 motor and then rebuilding the transmissions. -------------------- |

I'm just excited for the gas mileage...not that I was even complaining before . I really didn't expect the 10.0 10.6 bc of how great it starts and runs. Brent's was a very different 10.0 I guess bc of the map sensor but I really don't know. His car ran great with the my map tho. I'm just glad we finally got the wideband on
here is a video celicast_cali made for me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KD3IjAzAsW4 -------------------- |
