http://www.gunstig.org/6gc/

never knew about it art. but i do now!! and i will use it... i just got back from the shop and had a short converstion with jeff (defgepf) and i have a few needs he and i think need to be a little more noted when doing the swap. picturs are being posted shortly. (to gunstig.org)

whoever is in charge of the hosting site, shouldnt we have some sort of order? i dont want to post 20+ pics that swappers have to hunt down...

you need this bad boy right here

yea, i know... i hope i dont have to wait too long to get that. my dealer usually gets the parts in quickly.

i have pics of the 5th gen bracket to show the difference.

zip...

once you upload a pic to that site...it gives you html code to copy and paste into your post

Chuck that 5th gen bracket, it causes nothing but trouble. if any infomation is posted about that bracket, people will believe its the right one. That rumor needs to die.

5th gen pass side engine bracket = no good for the 3s swap in a 6th gen. 6th gen GT is the one you want everybody.

just to say, the hosting site is awesome, but after 3min of looking img's of



tend to make it not so celica related.

Thats what I need too, still waiting on it.

My Yota dealer usually gets me parts the next day, but this is taking for ever I ordered it on the 23rd and still don't have it.

im still on the gay 3sgte bracket. swaping over to the 5s one soon

Actually nm thats not the part I'm waiting for. I'm waiting for the piece that goes between that and the insulator.

alright, check back tonight guys, im putting together a photobucket account.

jeff honestly, if i had it in front of me, and had the parts that art got for the rear, id get a race fuel cell and do it. he posted some good pics and i know i have the tools in that shop to make or produce it. it would be involved but i'd put $ on my brother and i getting it to work.

should have bought it from me when i was selling it a year ago. i would have given you a crazy cheap deal on all that stuff.

Make sure you have a vise to do the timing belt. The tensioner you have to compress with a vise then slide a allen wrench in there to hold it.

didnt know any better at the time, wasnt really into my 6gc at the time either.. never thought id have the ability ($and know how or help) to complete it.. this clip sorta fell on my lap with timing and my trannys poor performance. 70k miles and i cracked the case. who the hell has cracked there trans case here?!

busy busy!! sunday 10/9/05 : the timing belt was changed along with the water pump. for some reason my crank pulley bolt was on so ****'in tight, we had to make our own "SST" (toyota's term for speical service tool as seen in all of their FSM's) see pics on my link in page 1.

10/10/05 : tonight i got my fidanza flywheel bolted up. (80 ft/tq)
and my spec clutch set installed. (15ft/tq for pressure plate) the spec kit was custom made (or thats at least what the sticker said!!) for me.
full face sprung disc i was told should hold 420tq!! stockish pedal feel.

the C52 (92 celica gt trans) is bolted up, missing a few bolts that hold it but its good for the night.

tonight i noticed a few broken sensor, lucky there are part numbers on all but one (3total) hopefully there not too expensive!!! i blame the broken sensors on all the handling i've had to do. 100% clean up after every night...

will be posting more in the next few days... pics should be added soon!
