Engine 3sgte

k can we just drop the subject lol. CE u got a point man I admit that so I'll just go over to some other forum or something to see if I can get more information about the 3SGTE swap but thanks anyways man

just get a supra lol

bak from the dead....dayum look at the dates Derek

Last time I talked to ToySport, I was quoted around 8k for everything. But then again, that is for a 93-97 Rolla.

Well, I'm wrapping up a 2ZZGE swap into a '98 right now (which yes, does have the 1ZZFE).

After doing this, I can say with a degree of certainty that a 3SGTE swap would not be much more difficult. The 2ZZGE needed 3 out of the 4 engine mounts to be modified, custom exhaust manifold and exhaust, custom axles, and lots of other little items, not to mention the usual wiring difficulties. The 3SGTE would need the same things, adding the intercooler and piping, turbo fitment, blah blah blah.

I'd do it, for a lot less than 10 Gs as well, but I'm a bit of a drive!


*edit* Oh yeah, one little extra problem with the 3SGTE. Full iron block vs. the 1ZZFE aluminum block means that the weight distribution will be a little off... but I think it would still be worth it.

The swap was actually pretty easy (Mainly because I had my friends helping me out). The only real pain in the ass was the wiring, but other than that it was pretty straight-forward, and I only had to spend about $1000.
