Ok my man.
Dont listen to the negative comments, if yo u go to defgephs file you can see that he has a step by step instruction manual to swap a st to a 3sgte, i am 19 and have no motor experience but am going to do it, although i am mecanically inclined. study the facts and see how long it takes to swap, dont be scared of power, respect it. im a extremist and was sent to boarding school in costa rica forr a reason. to tell you the truth i havent even been driving for a year yet and im allready drifting and topping out at speed above 150 ( i work at a toyota dealership) so its all about confidence and practice, i drive frobably 3/5 of every day just getting to know my cars handeling. i have a 94 gt right now and im fully confident that i can handle more power, after all i fly down i 45 at 150+. its not about the car, its the driver. just the other day i smoked a corvette because he didnt know his car enough to judge gaps between cars. get to know your car, then make it faster. i dont think you realize that a swap will take about 2-3 months depending on how well u are mechanically. so with this said, you will need a lil commuter car. i wouldnt bother with the suspention just yet, check this link out, http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=28825&st=0 , then see if you still want to do it.. i found the clip i wanted for 1800 and ill be able to get it for 1400 becasue of our dealership account with jdm. you will have to upgrade a lot of your st parts to gt parts but thats all included in the 4grand price range. defgeph says he did a st for 4 grand and from the looks of it, i dont doubt it. the only thing aobut tuning the st motor is later on you will want more power, but cant. theres no replacement or dispacement. and the 3sgte is made for the boost so it wont croak on you. boosting your high mileage engine looks to be a waste of money to me! if you want we can even do these swaps togeather. just msg me and well se whats goin on.
