I bought a 95 jap spec 3sgte and I just need to find someone who can do the swap for me. Righ now I have an apexi turbo timer, apexi intake kit, apexi n1 turbo muffler, walbro 255lph fuel pump, powerstop brake rotors front and back, I want the backs converted to disc I have drums, trd short shifter kit, ground control coilovers, and a act stage 2 clutch. I know I need a gt tranny and all that other ****, but I'm not worried about that I just need to know if any of you guys know someone who has already done the swap and will do it for me!

closest to you is prolly DG performance, id give him a call, although seeming as though you bought the engine without a transmission i doubt you have all of the other necessary parts such as :

coil , ignitor, wiring harness (most important part) ecu, afm

I'd be happy to do it, but I'm a good distance away.

If you want a real handle on whats going on in your car, simmer down do some research. Save some money, set aside some time, or find a beater or other means of transportation.

Take on the project yourself. You have a ton of local people that would give you a hand if you get to know them. Research would be the key though. We have a very large database of information on this site that would get you through every step.

You can do it.

do your own swap! best part about doing it, is all the things youll learn about your car. almost everyone here who has done their own work, had never swapped a motor before. if we can do it, so can you.

x2 if you research enought, and have been under the hood before you should be able to pull it off. Just need some basic tools and obviously the right parts. Make sure you have them all before you start though, you dont wanna have to stop for any other reason once you start. (except maybe to grab another beer) smile.gif
