Engine Swaps Section Options

[Coomer]

Hey guys,
Bryan(the devilmaycrie), along with the help from many of you, is going to be developing content for an upcoming section of the site, focused on engine swaps for our Celicas.

I'll be doing the coding to get it all setup, and Bryan and I have talked a bit about structure for this new section.

Basically,
My idea is the following for the intro page.


The left links would go to articles with pictures/comparison tables with detailed information

The right links would take you to those swaps' dedicated pages, which would include an introductory paragraph, a couple pictures, and the following links:

• Engine Specifications/Approximate Cost/Comparison Table
• Needed Parts(with approximate costs)
• Guide to the Mechanical Part of the Swap(with pictures)
• Guide to the Electrical Part of the Swap(with wiring diagrams)
• Media (Photos/Video/Sounds)

This is what I'm thinking. I'll have Bryan post up here with his ideas, and then we as a community can figure out exactly what will be best for this section of the site.

What engine is best for the driver isnt always the same as whats easiest. So putting into black and white like that, I'd have to disagree.

yeah but haveing the advantages of each engine listed... ie 4age 20v is better in general opinion for high rev's, 4agze is better for take off power, the 3sgte is better for high end and most tunable... is what we mean

This sounds like an awesome plan!! I know someday i want to make a swap, and this would be great info for me to decide what to do.

Thank You!!!!

sounds wonderful, and it should clear up alot of repeated questions that are asked day to day.

This is the best idea I've seen for this site that I can remember. I'm proud to be affiliated with this site.

do you want to add your engine swap for your 89 celica when we do it kinda like a guide line for newbies


................ never mind

A hardcore tech section with lots of info on stuff besides engine swaps would be great, like straight down to sizes of bolts and stuff

Click my sig and DL evrything there. I've collected it from various sites over the past couple years. I think it might come in handy for this new section.
