Altezza's 3SGE Beams Blacktop, This should be interesting... Options

[JoKeRkId613]

I like to think of the future... and once my 7A-FTE is complete, I fear that I'll soon get bored of it's limits, as have many other 7A-FTE-ers out there and go the 3S-GTE route after.I searched for all these words: "altezza, beams, 3sge, blacktop, 210hp"... I didn't find much. I've seen pictures on here but that's about it. Seeing as this is probably Toyota's most powerful NA 4 banger(210HP), this is something I like. lol. All I've been able to find is that it's rare as ****, which I figured, and that it came on the altezza(jdm is300). Does anyone know any companies that import the clip with the beams blacktop just so i can get an idea of the price. i saw on celicatech that someone mentioned there was one on ebay once for like 4500 for the front clip. not too bad for something that's non turbo and as i imagine, reliable. i love my car and many ppl tell me to sell it and get a brand new car, but i love that ****. it looks so nice and everyone else assumes it's newer than it actually is. lol. so does anyone know what companies import the beams blacktop? can anyone give me more info on this rare motor(i tried google... lol). how feasible is this motor to put in the celi? i have an st so i know it's more of a bitch, but w.e. and if im not mistaken, this motor came with a 6spd tranny and in rwd format. im guessing the blacktop;s tranny wont be usable so im guessing the gt tranny would be good since people can use the gt tranny for a beams redtop? thanks a lot guys.

hey there four of 3sge vtt-i of differen ffrom each other.. but the altezza hav the differen intake manifold then the red top, there is two vvt-i are the same like red top and black top, but the one in altezza is differen, i seem.

they all have twin cam but there only on e have two vvt-i cam.. that altezza and the other is the sliver top.
they all has same horsepower but differen torque..

it hard to find altezza 3sge vvt-i with 2 cam of vvt-i.
celica from 97 thro 99 it has the red top. that only has singel vvt-i. but it has twin cam too.. so it kinda different.

if u wanna swap why do u try redtop is easy black top caz it rear wheel drive.
here is pictur of the black of 3sge vvt-i of altezza
