We all know 276 whp is never enough HP!!  HELL YES Supercharge it! (when you're ready  ) This v6 swap is going to be so sick and i can only imagine how great its going to feel. Not only just because all that extra engine  but because you're doing it with on your own! AWESOME MAN! kudos to you! |

It is a bracket and its finalized.
04B2251A  its not pretty, but does the job, as for measures there are none, it was made trial an error. this bracket allows the oem mount of the 2GR to mount in the Celica, using the stock GT holes. this took 7 hours to build.

What is the pedal for? I may have missed something! And I was thinking you could do throttle bodies through the hood! Hahahaha!
