>tell me more about your projector bi xenon projector lights

i bought it from someone who has get it in japan, about 2 month ago, he pay 350 cad for it, for the install, i had to make a big hole in the back of headlight and unglue the lens to fit the bi-xenon( to unglue it, just heat it up whit heat gun all aroung where the glue is, for 5 min, and slowly remove the lens whit screewdriver , u can leave the the glue there and heat it up back to put the lens back, or put new glue, ((nissan headlight glue ))heat it up back and put the lens back in, (i didnt took the glue off, ) ho and i paint the interior of the light in black plastic color, and i had leave the metal circle silver inside.i have a custom switch for the angel eye and i have to install the control for the light going on low and high beam (now its on high) the low and high beam is only one projector who is actually moving back or so to make more or less light

You won't be able to do it in 3 days if your doing it by yourself. If you shooting for under 300 hp I'd stick with the s54. You need a s54 pressure plate, and either a s54 disk or a s54 splined 3sgte disk(dr tweak once said there is s very small difference and he uses s54 everything because of the cost). As for the fuel pump yes I'll need to upgrade,to either a gt4 pump or a walbro.


Look in the forced induction sticky area,there are quite a few 3sgte related topics.
problem solved

Dude...you have to do LOTS and LOTS of research. There is no one magical thread that tells you step by step what to do throughout an ENTIRE swap.

But if you search stickies, you will find many very informative and helpful threads and gain the knowledge to take on the job. You can't just go into something because you know it works and has been done, you have to know how to do it.

do >>MOAR>> research!!!!!!!

you've been on here for 2 months, you need to research. i'm going to be researching over a period of 4 years (not needed though) but that's how long I'll be in college. and no, 3 days is not possibly for a one man crew, probably not even a 2 or 3 man crew unless they really know what they are doing. do not jump the gun because you will mess something up.

>if u look in the sticky forced induction threat u will not find how to swap ur engine... just one for the 2th gen 3sgte.... not the same thing, we should have a how to replace 5sfe whit 3sgte whit a transmission that for fwd , but its all custum, and all lead to some kind of problem, what is the best way ? get 3sgte front engine from gt4 whit ecu and put the lsd tranny from mr2 whit some spacer in the boots and get the engine mount st205 or gt4 for the transmiision ,extended the wire harness ,

and the 3sgte clutch ? what is a54 ? is it the 2.2l one ? supra kid, u mean i can keep all original component in the transmission if i use the 5sfe transmission ? i heard that one part dont fit, i need to know the exact part i need in my original 5sfe tranny to fit in bolt on to the 3sgtg3

Its 80% the EXACT same.

If you have researched at ALL you'd find that the 2nd and 3rd gens are physically the same to swap in, the only major difference with the 2nd gen swap is the wiring nightmare. I can see you seem to be getting POed and ill tell you if you blow up and attempt to tell off a member your gonna lose everyone's support and help, so id advise against that. Its nice to see you seem to have learned some grammar skills though.

i had change a supra 88 engine by my self 8 years ago took 6 month, so i learn... and i will do it in 3 day, whitout mistake and maybe i will do a threat how to put 3sgte the easy way on the gt, i will do thew wiring harnees begfore the swap, andd i already found all the wiring diagram from 5sfe to 3sgte 3th gen, i let you know how it gonna be
You have now rendered the last sentence in my last post untrue :\. What engine did you put in the mk3?Because unless its a jz engine its plug and play and a MUCH easier swap than a 3sgte swap. Are you going to be swapping alone or will you have other people helping you out? If your doing it alone look at at LEAST 4 solid days of swapping(if you know exactly what your doing and have 0 gremlins, both of which will not be true.)

just because you did 1 engine swap does not mean you learned anything. supras are different than celicas. different body, different wiring, different engine, pretty much different everything! you have no experience with this car. what if you mess the swap up? you're going to be car-less for more than 3 days. THERE IS NO EASY WAY TO SWAP A 3S INTO THE GT! do you not comprehend what we are telling you?



dude, its awesome you have a thread to show your progress and you want to swap and do allt hat cool stuff to your 6gc but seriously. do research. alot of it. talk to members who have swapped but use real legit questions. and look at build threads on 3sgte's.
