The celica was able to move today under its own power, just need to go ahead and get the passenger axle worked out. Once that's done the car is literally drivable, well with the hood off till i get the fmic
EDIT: I just slipped the clutch a little bit to make sure everything was engaging correctly cuz i just finished the auto to manual swap too -Ryan This post has been edited by FAQdaWorld: May 24, 2005 - 1:23 AM -------------------- AIM : FAQdaWorld

No mods, its stock as of now. Eventually i'll turbo it, and go stand alone. But for now we're just getting it mobile. 300 hp or so would be my GOALish HP.

So yay, 2 6gc's w/ the gze. The great thing is the ammount of potential that this motor has. Slap on a turbo, and ur good for 300 hp. What tranny are you gonna be using? the stock c52? I'm looking forward to the power of the e58 (lsd).

yep, the stock ST tranny. I hope it can hold up. But there are plans in the future for a 6speed application. Gotta do some research.

What was the wiring like for this swap?
Also what axles did you guys use? I assume that if you use the 7a tranny you can just use the 7a axles? This post has been edited by Rjb23: May 30, 2005 - 3:40 PM |
