Ah, looked up the 1mz and that sounds about perfect. I do have a manual. I'm mostly looking for a v6 to do exhaust, intake, minor head work on myself after NADC. Definately don't need a turbo at my age and driving record lol
Much appreciated. I'll have my eye on this thread for sure |

really no different. use an s54, make a PS mount, send wiring to tweek, thats the only thing diff. maybe even easier since less stuff to deal w/ (intercooler, turbo, piping etc)

QUOTE If swapping a 3vz into an st instead of a GT what would be differant? Still need the same motor mounts? Thanks again for helping me out, lazurus the difference in the mounting is the passenger side mount. which needs to be custom anyway so... no big deal there. drill and tap the holes that are already on the pass side frame rail. but you cannot use an ST tranny. ask these in my progress thread, so info is avail to all. -------------------- QUOTE "And, as always, your friendship, help, and dedication to the advancement of Texas Celica dominance is GREATLY appreciated.
