ok with the increasing interest in V6 swaps im thinking of providing a kit that will include some of the parts you need.
the kit will include the passenger engine mount.   the Y pipe and down pipe to a flex pipe. the rest of the exhaust is on you.  the Y pipe will have a V band and then the flex pipe will be on the other end. ill try to get pics on my car to show you. and an axle bearing carrier for the S54 transmission. Insert pic here when i pull this engine out to do the full 3MZ swap or if someone in So Cal want to be my guienna pig ill have the carrier bracket made on your car. im thinking the cost for all of these parts will be in the 700 range plus shipping. now before you say thats alot. there is alot of fab time in making the Y pipe and of course the cost of materials. -------------------- 2001 Celica GT-S Turbo

Ok I might be intrested in a mount after the holidays are over
If I don't make a solid mount on my own Yours looks better than anything I could make. An if you don't get to it before me. I'm going to make up a new axle mount this winter. I'll make you a copy to mass produce for you kit if you would like -------------------- 95 gt coupe, v6 swap weekend toy

$700 seems more than fair for everything included. The motor mount looks great!

+1!
700 is a great deal. I just might have to pick a kit up.... Are you going to stick with the DBW for the 3MZ? If so, how are you going to mount your new pedal? -------------------- ~bloodMoney

If so, how are you going to mount your new pedal? actually no what im going to do is use the intake manifold and dual throttle bodies from the 1MZ VVT and that computer. its still a throttle cable engine. i found one today complete in a 2003 Avalon at my local yard. they want 1500 for the engine, harness, computer, pretty much everything but the trans. thats more than i want to pay since all i really need is the manifold harness and computer. it also has an immobilizer and i dont think i want to fight with that. -------------------- 2001 Celica GT-S Turbo

That mount looks good, and it probably does the job just fine, but it'd look better with a bigger bushing

I work at a metal fab shop. If you give me the specs on that mount I could make one up for $100 CAD.
