i basically plan on taking it to a shop to have the entire thing done right there, i figure ill save on costs this way, rather than taking it to multiple shops.
i plan on replacing upgrading the following: suspension - coilovers, brakes, shoes and rotors, camber kit tires and wheels - conni's extreme contact , rims not picked engine - 7afe to 3s-gte ( front clip shipped to shop ) custom enclosure for 18" kicker sub and space for nos can nos?? - its a possibility... but i think ill be happy with a swap for now body kit and paint job ( frontend to look like gt4, possibily metallic green ) other minor details --- i've already gotten tips on wheels. need some advice from people who have done suspension (what brands aren't crap) etc... need some advice on the engine... all i need is front clip or do i have to order more parts? in the mean time, im gonna be researching this forum more and other sites. |

lets see, suspension: Tein Coilovers roughly $800 i believe, Brembo cross drilled brake rotors and green stuff brake pads rims what ever you want i would go with an 17in x 8in width though NO NOS, its not needed its like 75 bucks a fill and you will have a damn turbo on your car, use it not a damn bottle engine i would do a basic overhaul, spark plugs/ wires, replace your basics like you would with any used car. buy a front clip with uncut wireing harness. u need MR2 TUrbo transmission or GT transmission need GT shifter cables to swap over on the MR2 custom axles i believe front mount intercooler with custom piping custom exhaust piping will be needed This post has been edited by Sev408: Nov 10, 2004 - 9:53 PM --------------------  hows it taste motha f*cka |

Custom axles... how much does that run? Sounds tricky too.

QUOTE Custom axles... how much does that run? Sounds tricky too. if you get a mr2 rear clip you should be fine using the mr2 axles. the only problem where you come into needing custom axle stuff is using a lsd tranny and a non lsd axle, like if you had a gt and got a mr2 transmission. this is because the half shafts for the lsd tranny are shorter than the ones for a non lsd tranny. someone correct me if im wrong. -------------------- Former: 96 GT 5 speed (i/p/e) Fate- rear ended by mack truck
