Pretty sure the cat's out of the bag, but for those who don't know I went the 3S route the cheap way. Now I just need everyone's help in search for a 5-speed conversion. Really need this car up and running, so I might even go for a 5sfe automatic tranny.

(ZGear on BCCentaur's screen name): Because I'm pretty sure that everyone who finds a 3SGTE for $500 would not pass it up.

Depends oh how much work it needs. I guess though, I was really looking forward to the itb frown.gif B00st is better though.

hey guys, i guess it's my duty to invite you guys to our Rockfalls Opener cruise. A couple mr2 owners from mr2oc are meeting up and cruising to the rockfalls season opener, and you guys are invited. I dont own an mr2 anymore, but i'll get back to an aw11 mr2 in the future eventually. I talked to greg and ger, and i'm pretty sure they're coming, too! One of my honda buddy wants to meet up with us, too, and cruise together. I believe he's bringing along an evo 10, s2000, and an ep3 civic, so it should be a fun cruise together. It's $10 to watch and $40 to run your car at rockfalls. It's the closest quarter mile track to the twin-cities (an hour and 30 minutes). Bring extra money for food and drinks, they have okay brats and hamburgers.

Rockfalls ain't what it used to be a couple years ago, but a lot of people still go for the Season-Opener. Here's the link to Rockfalls, http://rockfallsraceway.com/

Here is when we are meeting; This week, April 11, Sunday. Originally, we were going to leave at 7 AM, but I'm switching it to 6:30 AM because they start checking off cars at 7:30. We'll get there at 8:00 AM, just enough time for the people who are racing to get their cars checked off. Racing starts at 9 AM. It gets boring around Noon, that's when they start racing for trophies, so that's when I'll most likely leave.

Here's the location, it's right off highway I-94 and Marion st, you can't miss it, it's the big Sears parking lot. If you are coming west, take I-94 east until you hit Marion, it's right before the highway 35E exit.




Remember, we are leaving at 6:30 AM. Here is my number if you get lost or something, (651)-three-nine-nine-5485

Hey Greg, wanna pick me up Saturday night? Pretty sure you don't want to drink and then wake up early for Sunday. Otherwise we can drink together after you pick me up. I'll pay for booze and gas for picking me up. Unless Will wants to go too then I'll bug him.

Blizzard Tuning doing work on Felix's camry. We just did some brackets for the FMIC. btw that IC is ginormous. Thank you Felix for giving us the opportunity to work on your car.






Still waiting on Joe and Nathan to swing by to get some work done.

Joe, we canceled plans to do the work you needed done bro. You should have let us know if you weren't able to make it.

How much did you pay from Mynzeyez? Just wanted to get an idea from what you paid. You can pm me if you feel uncomfortable. I'll give you a good price.
paid 3 or 400 for the whole motor minus cams and gaskets IIRC. not really sure what a good price is just for the head. my only concern is all the buckets are out of the head and i've been told that they need to go in their exact spots cause of the shims and it makes me figure ill just get a whole different head with cams and everything and i wont have to deal with any of that

-Brian
Blizzard Tuning FTW! No, Thank you Guys. You guys did an amazing job. On top of that pricing on all of it was great alot less then i would pay anywhere else that's for sure. Thanks!!

P.S. You know ill be back

What of $50 plus shipping? Unless you'll be down here in the summer to get it, just say it and I'll hold it for you.

The only Toyota guys that showed up at Rockfalls was me and Lou. The rest was an Alltrac 5th gen, MKIII supra, Scion TC, and a couple XRS Corolla guys. Sad really for the Toyota community. Although it 's a good thing to hear that most of us on 6GC are coming back from the dead, hopefully we'll be more active this year or the next.

Officially known 6GC of MN with 3sgte:
Johnny boy - 3rd Gen 3S
Tao - 3rd Gen 3S
Ger - Soon to be 1st Gen 3S

Un-official with 3sgte:
William - Stroked 1st Gen 3S

Seems like the only guys with 3S are asians besides Ely who moved. I really wanted to go the different route of the 20v 4age, but who would wanna see a 16sec celi?
