I have been studying hard after i bought a crashed GT as a donor car for my ST 7A-FE. The guy i bought it off did not have clue about it other than he said it was awesomely fast, and his daddy bought it for him and it was the second one he had crashed.
Well i am in the process of fitting this engine into my car and cannot wait to feel the difference. heres the problem or just for piece of mind! The guy i got it off said it leaves all other 6G celicas for dead less the GT4 even ones that claimed to be 175 BHP. He had drag raced it against them after they boasted about performance (Dont we all) So could it be a superstut or a beams engine if so HOW CAN I TELL other than driving it and getting it on a dyno I really am excited about getting this in the car! oh yeh can anybody send me a pic of a 3SGE engine timing cover side, in the car so i can compare as this one was a little damaged and i have no pictures to compare to. all your amazing help and advice is sought and greatly appreciated KEV -------------------- Gen 6 Celica in Red with VVTI Beams engine, lowered 40mm, front and rear strut braces, asia tec 17 inch alloys, avon ZZ2 tyres, Rage Back box and a decat, JDM rear lights, red bits on the dash and clock shroud and a DVD player.
