I've been thinking about doing a beams 3sge swap. But I don't want to get the front clip, what do I need besides the engine, trans, harness and ecu? Or I'm I better off with the front clip? I've read the stickies and can't find anything on it only some helpful ones on the gt4s but I wonna go na. There's probably a thread in here about this but I can't find it. Any info is much appreciated thanks

be aware, you live in CA and a BEAMS swap is ILLEGAL!!!!!!!


no its not. it is not legal. It would be illegal if it crossed the river. laugh.gif



yes it is. the BEAMS did not come in any USDM celica and it is not ODB compliant. It will NOT pass smog. It will not pass inspection.

Same thing with the 3sgte swap right? Since it is a Japan motor and the last of the the USDM 3sgte motor was from the altrac and the mr2. Mines a 99 by the way.
