Just to let yall know, if yall do a 3s swap and decide to go to RS Motors, make sure your engine harness is converted already. because they called me about my harness so i went to their shop and was like at first you said you will do the conversion on the harness, and Ron said i can do it but its gonna take weeks. I knew he didn't want to waste time on my harness because of the look on his face. You know how when people dont want to do the things you ask and paid them to do....well i said that i know i guy that can do it for me. so now i have to send in the harness (both 3s and 5s)to Dr. Tweak. Kind of ****ed up but...just warning yall...
Thanks bro, I was totally going to RS this summer, because I heard they would do the works. I think I might as well take it to a shop near by and just send the harnesses to the Doc.

I'm taking mines to tweak in 2 years hahah if he still does it. But I've been debating on just doing it myself.

RS Motor is good no doubt about it but it all comes down to if they want to work on your car or not....there's always gonna be ups and downs to a performance shop...but RS did a real good job of putting my motor together and a real good job of converting the mr2T tranny to FWD...
Can I check out you guys that have the 3s swap done this weekend?
When I do the swap I am just planning on running my stock tranny. How much did you buy the MR2 tranny for?

I know you can pick some up from ChicoRaceWorks. One day I'm planning on ordering my 93lsd mr2 tranny from them.

Haven't heard anything bad at all about them, everybody on the mr2 board seems to really like the place

So you're looking at 1400 with lsd. I think I might just stick with my Tranny because I'm not looking to spend more for extra parts, after getting the front clip.

Yea, pretty much unless you find somewhere else that has mr2 lsd transmissions with axles. If you did find another place let me know cause I'm always looking to save a little money where I can. The problem with me is since I have a ST I have to get a new tranny anyways so I might as well go all out and get the mr2 tranny.

When were you guys thinking about having the meet?
Maybe we can tag along with the mr2 guys and make one big Toyota meet because I know the mr2 guys are talking about having a meet soon sometime too

If that goes down, or if any meet goes down count me in.
