It's also an iForce V8, definitly not redneck.

Alright that is a little overboard GTBOY, at least the guy didn't put an LS1 in it like the Mazda guys like to do, I don't get that either why Chevy I thought Ford owned Mazda, oh wait Ford doesn't have a small enough engine that can compete with the LS1, unless they noobercharge it, maybe a nurbo for the Focus is next, lol j/k.

please dont talk ever again

I went to that eastonchang website, and I couldn't find any info on this thing. I might do a swap of some sort in the Celica one day. I'd be more likely to do the 2JZ-GTE swap. But I'm still really interested in how the drive train and everything goes together on this thing.

It was originally an alltrac so the rear axle compnents were allready in place. Good luck with the 2JZ, seriously, If there is anything this car has shown us is that anything is possible with enough time and money.

they had to have cut the firewall to get the tranny to fit

i dont think we will be seeing any 6th gens with a rwd conversion.

actually, Toyota did this factory setup a while back. The took the Celica, made it RWD, threw in the 2JZ and twin-turbo'd it. However, they call this special edition Celica..... a Supra

I like the custom work on the car. Very nice and looks well put together. I loves the front fascia. I'm a sucker for the large mouth body kits, and that one is in the running. Nice find on the vid lagos.

What is that front? modified Carlos Sainz?

Now tell me more about this car called the Supra...

If they can make a bolt on kit to put a 302 in a focus, then I can put a 2jz in a Celica. I'd only do this because I like Celica's look more than Supra, and I'm a sucker for a sleeper. I'm be much more likely to try to stuff this engine into an old corolla.
As for the Celica in discussion, how would the original rear end handle that much power? It seems like it would break easy to me. And I'm still interested in reading more on this thing. Thanks for the info though, anything I can learn is good.

is there a place i can go for pics of the engine in the engine bay?

i'm just a bit skeptical when i've seen a DSM doing the same thing when it's coupler went out

The Supra motor is a good swap, I considered that before I planned the 3S RWD swap and it's too much fab work for me. I do know it can be done "legally" safety wise as long as you swap the firewall from the Supra in it whcih will require some minor mods to the A/C duct work and some other dash parts (you'll need to cut about 2 inches off each side), the 2JZ is about 8" longer than the 3S and there isn't enough room in the engine bay to fit it and the radiator. I know the 3S only provides about 5" worth of clearance in the front in a RWD set-up, but it also requires about 4 inches in the rear due to the radiator hose and distributor. I ruled out the 2JZ mostly because I can extract 2JZ power form the 3S and save weight and space. The drivetrain on that guys Celica is probably a Supra drivetrain with GT-Four suspension parts since the Getrag doesn't require as much space as the Tundra transmission does, he probably just cut a 6"-10" relief for the bellhousing and since the shifter is on the rear of the transmission fitment isn't a difficult job, with my research the Getrag attached to a 3S will sit just perfectly in the engine bay and transmission bay with very little fab work involved. If you want to go for it cool deal, I will tell you this a new Getrag will run about $6,000 from Toyota without the required parts to make it wok, a used with all the parts from suprastore.com will cost about $5,000 and will almost always require a rebuild so you save a few hundred in the end. The rear end with a TRD LSD is about $2,500 and the driveshaft is obviously custom since the Supras is about 3" longer and the GT-Four's is too short. If you need some more info just PM me.
