i wanna ditch the 4ag

[attica85]

well what i want to do is do an engin swap in my '85 mk1 and put in a 3sgte...any one here done it?
i know i would have to swap out the trasn and i guess motor mounts but i just want a second opinion on the whole thing
any info on this would be great thanks

yup, see the thread (click on my sig pic)

read through it and i'll answer any questions you still have (it is pretty brief)

[attica85]

so you fabricated almost every thing from the mounts to the exaust to the down pipe....is that because they don't make them and sell um or were you just saving cash?
i just want to weigh my options cause its either a swap in my mr2 or my supra. i really want to do both but its come down to availibility of parts and cost.
yeah and thanks dan this info really helps me out

you will have to custom fab mounts, but the only reason i did the downpipe was because of room. you can buy whatever downpipe you desire (though i don't suggest over 2.5" unless you are pushing a TON of power).

the car was origonally built to do the $2004 challenge from GRM, but i went over budget, and decided to just finish it out the way it is.

if you do the swap, you'll NEED a lot more tire, and a lot more suspension. keep that in mind for added expences.
