So i have finally decided that i will keep my 6gc and swap in a 3sgte and go that route as opposed to everything else i was talking about. Whew glas to have made up my mind, finally!!!
So i know a good toyota shop in Portland Oregon(where i live) and personally know the owners but am not sure they will do the swap. So this raises two questions... Does anybody know of anyone on the West Coast who can handle a 3sgte motor and tranny swap into a 94 GT coupe, and do it right?? Where should i order the Engine and parts from?? I have found a couple of websites on here and such that offer everything but i have very hesitant to drop 2 grand on the motor over the internet. So three more questions Is buying a motor and tranny and all that is needed for this swap, online the ONLY way to go? Should i have the toyota shop order it? will it be more if they order it? -------------------- 1 JL 1,000/1v2

Have you done any searching at all?
1. just getting the engine with ecu and harnesses wont cut it. You'll need the front clip, where you'll get everything you need for the swap to run properly. 2. You can keep your tranny since you have a GT. 3. Check out jarcoinc 4. save the money and do it yourself. Thats only way you'll learn. 5. SEARCH 6. SEARCH MORE... -------------------- 98 Celica gt red- totaled deer
