Well after one year of being parked and half a summer of work. I bring you this..........
97 ST Limited 93 3SGTE-RC swap JDM 3SGE Tranny 3SGE axles Spec stage 3 clutch Fidanza light weight flywheel Gauges, pump, and some other goodies Brought it up to 95 MPH, running 6 to 7 pounds with 300 miles total on it since the swap. Problems other than a restrictive exhaust.... none All the gaskets, hoses, and belts replaced. The car pulls straight & hard. Just waiting now for the clutch to break in and a new full 3 inch exhaust. Manny, Jenn, Dustin, Dave and Andrei thanks for the help. With out you guys this wouldnt have been done till 2007 haha. Once I clean up the car some more I'll get ya some better pics of the engine. Right now I'm still in testing phase. After a nice engine detail and some wax, I'll throw up some better pics. Thanks 6GC.net Enjoy DEF -------------------- I will return one day. |

Thanks guys....
My tires on the rims are too thin for the car now, alot of weight up front. I have a honda civic as a daily driver, its next to the celi in a few pics. I'm only hitting 6 to 7 because of my exhaust. It starts at 3inch then 2 1/2 st185 mid pipe to 1 3/4 ST exhaust with my flowmaster 40 series muffler. the exhaust will be done soon. Thanks again guys DEF -------------------- I will return one day. |

worked on it for 2 and half months only on the weekends.
Alot of problems, I got a ton of wrong information that I had to find the right answers for. Maybe one day I'll go over it. Price..... haha well just save up a few grand and just keep going from there. I'm unsure of the total number. Atleast 4 grand so far -------------------- I will return one day. |
