I know Im not the first to ponder this biggrin.gif , but has a 1mz or 2gr ever been mated to a e154?

And then the other important question is will the TRD Supercharger for either engine fit under the hood of a 6gc? (someone go take measurements!)

Let me know what you think...

Gouky on mr2oc pioneered the 2gr swap in the SW20 and after talking to him, he mentioned that his car was around 100lbs lighter than stock after the 2gr swap.

After riding in that car, I'm not sure that a FWD 2gr powered car (w/o traction control) is a good idea. I just can't imagine the restraint that is needed to keep from roasting the two (or one) front tires off the rims.

I have both an e153 and several e154f trannys laying around... I may have to start mocking up to get an idea of clearances..... hmmmm

Or you could donate the e154 to me and someone can donate a 2gr to me as well and I can let you all know how it goes biggrin.gif
