So, many of you know I wrecked my Celica, Im saving it for a project car and really like the curren look.... what all does it take to do the conversion..... Any ideas as far as how hard it would be... and im planning on doing a RHD conversion also... I know it'll take a while, but im about to switch to a company sallary and im young and allreaddy have college paid for... ive looked into a 2jz swap and that is at the bottom of my list of maybes, with snapshots 1mz working that gives me alot of desire... can u boost it tho? I dont care if the mods take alot of knowhow, ill be taught how to and if i still cant ill try again, then if I fail to many times ill hire someone...

I'd like to see how you're gonna fit a 2jz motor in, seeing that it sits vertically in the engine bay rather than horizontal, also playr158 (Dan) is doin the RHD conversion so go find his thread.

If money fro you its not an issue, as you mentioned before. v6 swap 5000 $ current front end 1500$ 3sgte 5000 $ maybe 1.5 year span oh forgot tylenol 200$ so you can then cure the many headaches.. there is not much else you can do. Its only a celica, anything else you do, its been done before by Toyota Supra with horizontal engine V8 its called tundra. AWD in US some call it scooby.. -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

Engine swapin, I cant help ya.
However, Try lookin for Ngofcukinway He' knows all about supras. I've seen em. ![]() I can help with body work; that's not an issue. Anything can be made to fit anything else.

damn Texas really needs help with their education system
![]() 2jz swap = you are probably too poor (if you weren't you'd have bought a supra) RHD swap = more work than its worth and it serves no benefit, I have done it & Madscientist has done it, requires LOTS of drilling, scrapping, maybe some cutting, welding, seam sealing. You'll have to rewire stuff cause none of yours will match up. Curren swap = buy one (rought a grand or so) then you'll have to cut and drilll out the bars on both the clip and your car, making sure you don't bend anything that is needed, measure and line the thing up, weld it back together Its far more efficient and cheaper to swap over a 3sgte, not to mention probably more than you'd need power wise and driving wise. If you want to get "rare" swap over a V6 + E153 tranny and you'll be just as good...attempt a SC install on it even. yes we know what the Houston crew is capable of.

HAHAHAA dayum.. this houston crew rolls hard!
ya, well money isnt an object consitering im bilingual and almost a CPA so... thanks for all the info yall and if yall wanna help, i got a crazy idea... bear with me on this as it may be just a lil fuggin crazy.... racing seats no big, but use the st207's AWD and All Wheel Steering with the 3sgte and 5sfe engine block setup, then it gets tricky... move the gastank to the leg area of the backseat and get 2 more racing seats for the back and cutem and fab em so theyre reclining and place em backwards... then since mine is a hatch i can cut the back bumper area off and putem on hunges and actuators and custom fab some steps into the inside plastics and then make it so u pop the trunk and like in a tahoe then open the lower bumper area and step in and sit, then close up and install subs between the seats.. maybe lil tvs in the back over the wheel wells at an angle.... im talkin some crazy **** thatll take me some time to do... like even if i dont do all of this, i may do some of it which is the point of this forum... ideas...... hmm lambo doors and ofcourse jdm tails..... but the whole rhd conversion is just because its diff... id like it... if i like it its worth the money for me..... and for all yall who think that us in texas are remidial theres a lot you got to learn... Sólo porque la televisión enseña a la gente de texas son vaqueros y tienen grandes extensiones de tierra y son ricos con el petróleo, no significa que todos somos de esa manera .... Sí, soy blanco y de texas .... pero también se guardan más veces que lo que puede contar con su mano y ha enviado a los diferentes estados y han vivido en mi propia desde yo era de 15, ya tenía un puesto de trabajo fue de 12 yo vivido y no sólo en otro país, sino por mí mismo y sin Habla una palabra de español, además de la cerveza y la mota .... El gracioso es que la mayoría de los niños mal en la escuela son el embarque de california y tienen estrechas mentes que cand decidir por sí mismos debido a que no se han enseñado a formular su propia opinión, pero para que se ajusten a los demás si a su remell o lo que sea, Sólo para ser aceptado en la sociedad de hoy en día .. Para que pueda mantener sus falsos amigos y condición social, y los malos mantener mi tripulación y de mi culo muy psicológica aquí en Texas, porque estaban en su conjunto otro nivel que todos ustedes! HAHA houston crew rolls HARD!!!! *** EDITED INTO SPANISH THAT INTERNET CAN TRANSLATE*** Just incase yall cant speak spanish..... This post has been edited by monkey: Apr 17, 2008 - 6:18 PM |
