the big thread of 1mz stuff - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #91482 133 posts Started by kurt95gt
Yup, right at a year ago now I sold it ironically after deciding to keep it. I still drop by every day for the most part, all the other car forums out there pretty much suck. I liked the Celica but it was just a little too lacking in grunt in ST trim, I've on and off considered getting a GT to 1MZ swap.

Oh yeah, I also sold it because it was red. tongue.gif

So then I replaced it with a red '79 Firebird, at least I solved the power issue.

I understand your 6gc and the spyder in the picture, but what was that camry doing there? lol

1997 ST:Limitedly GreenThis car is not about racing... This car is not about power or performance... It's purely about being cool.
I'll take a wild guess and say it was a Toyota meet.

Import face off we were all there supporting Toyota enthusiasts.
The camry has bc coilovers TRD rims an a few other Lil things. Not as stock as it looks. Plus he drove 6 hours to hang out for the day lol.

Ok, I was just curious. Seemed kind of weird to troll a forum for a car you don't own.... Lmfao. But if you like the people than I guess it's alright... Lol
Everyone loves me and told me to stay, so yeah. redface.gif

Alrighty, back to Kurt. tongue.gif

>Yeah, that's killing me,.. what's Kurt up to now? What do I need to buy next? I haven't even finished my v6 swap yet.


OMG, just reading back through everyone's V6 thread to see if I missed anything as I'm working on it right now, and found one of my own comments from just short of a year ago,. I can't believe I sat on my pile of parts this long. I've had everything except the clutch kit and flywheel for almost a year.
Looking to do this swap. I found a 1999 solara engine for real cheap it's got 400000km on it. But I plan on doing a rebuild in my garage over the winter. Is the list at the beginning of the thread everything you would need to do the swap? Will my s54 clutch disk and pressure plate work with this setup? Where does the extra engine mount need to be? Sorry for all the questions. I have a 95 gt standard.
