hey whats up guys, I havn't posted in a while because I have been busy trying to put together my new project car. i bought a 74 celica aka mini charger haha. I'll get some pics up as soon as I get my hands on a digital camera. I was talking to a parts guy at the toyota dealership today and he told me alot of people swap out 3sGTE's in these cars? is that possible? and if so anyone know where some vids are???

Its very possible. You just have to custom fab mounts to mount it longitudinally, a drive shaft, and get a rear end that will hold. Lot of fabrication work but it would be cool.

Wouldn't a 1 or 2jz be a little easier?
jgreening - Altezza, makes for a pretty easy swap.
Man there is so much I have to teach you!
