[Mynzeyes]

just like the topic says, i think this would be a very good little thread, just to give some insight for the newbs and dreamers as to what the swappers have done, what they went through, and how it's workin out to this day. feel free to add any info you wish, mainly the car type before, the new motor type, info about your personal swap (as all swaps are NOT created equal), a time frame, general cost, how is the performance, are you happy w/ it, etc... . let's see how big this list can get. .

edit: btw, only post if you are DONE and driving the car. that's what i'm lookin for.

agreed.. too many details in too many post, so ill try to keep it simple.
94 st to st185rc swap w/mr2 turbo lsd tranny, literally 3SGTE HYBRID CELICA
started october '03
finished june '04
did everything my self, basically (TopShelf did my wiring *curse curse* so I had to trace and REDO.. err!)
rough lump sum total... around 6k
caught the most beautiful RC clip for 3k from Jhonnie @ Japan-Direct
the rest is performance/aftermarket/CUSTOM nick nack ****- no need to get into
no labor charges obviously

so about 3 weeks into this little project of mine, after 8 months of pure blood sweat and tears...
this baby ROCKS!
havent raced it that hard much yet, but so far everyone has bowed down to my rear end.

MUCH MUCH MORE TO COME... the way i see it, the motor is pretty much stock with all the potential in the world.
