Well after one year of being parked and half a summer of work. I bring you this..........

97 ST Limited
93 3SGTE-RC swap
JDM 3SGE Tranny
3SGE axles
Spec stage 3 clutch
Fidanza light weight flywheel
Gauges, pump, and some other goodies

Brought it up to 95 MPH, running 6 to 7 pounds with 300 miles total on it since the swap.
Problems other than a restrictive exhaust.... none
All the gaskets, hoses, and belts replaced.
The car pulls straight & hard. wink.gif

Just waiting now for the clutch to break in and a new full 3 inch exhaust.

Manny, Jenn, Dustin, Dave and Andrei thanks for the help. With out you guys this wouldnt have been done till 2007 haha.

Once I clean up the car some more I'll get ya some better pics of the engine. Right now I'm still in testing phase. After a nice engine detail and some wax, I'll throw up some better pics.

Thanks 6GC.net
Enjoy
DEF

Thanks guys....

My tires on the rims are too thin for the car now, alot of weight up front.

I have a honda civic as a daily driver, its next to the celi in a few pics.

I'm only hitting 6 to 7 because of my exhaust. It starts at 3inch then 2 1/2 st185 mid pipe to 1 3/4 ST exhaust with my flowmaster 40 series muffler.

the exhaust will be done soon.

Thanks again guys

Should inspire you to keep yours and swap yours..... How long did you actually work on it? All that time or only a portion? and how many problems did you run into, also what kidna overall price did you come up with?

worked on it for 2 and half months only on the weekends.
Alot of problems, I got a ton of wrong information that I had to find the right answers for. Maybe one day I'll go over it.

Price..... haha well just save up a few grand and just keep going from there.
I'm unsure of the total number. Atleast 4 grand so far
