Re: jdm mr2 motor.

just curious, why would you wanna swap in a jdm turbo when you have a usdm turbo already? for the $2500 youd need just for the parts for the swap, you could make a decent little mr2t

Re: jdm mr2 motor.

Even if the motor was blown, I would just get another USDM engine or invest in upgrading the one you got.

>why the would you not get a JDM?
More expensive and harder to find parts for.
Try going to Toyota and/or a local autopart store and have them look up a part you broke on a JDM engine. Good luck

Exclamation about your swap

Look man if the tuner shop is telling you that you need a clip that is becuase in that clip (The whole back half of the car!) is all the wiring that you need and has all the parts that you need to have in order to make that swap! Also they are telling you this beacuase most places that you buy motors from come with eighter a cut wiring harness or no wiring harnesses with them, Now here is a website that is awsome it's in Raliegh North Carolina it's www.usedengine.com the Name of the acctual company is Japan Direct. Talk to Johnnie Morris. He will Hook you up!! they have the best deals on clips and they acctually go to japan and pick these clips out for us! They have a GREAT program and no bullcrap. All his clips come with full wiring, drive train, and motor. Infact one of my friends bought an s13 clip from him and the motor is in great shape it cranked on the first try and also it came with all the fluids no detuning and no bull. I think he paid $3200 for it all. the number to this place is 1-888-518-7341 toll free!

Talking about mr2 motor

what was the link for your site or phone number and what are you garanteed? Here it's compression tested and checked for any damages, also that price I gave of my friends' clip i forgot to mention that he got a os-giken twin plate clutch, maines upgrade ecu, jun flywheel, an hks blow off valve, greddy profec b boost control, jdm greddy boost gauge, hks turbo timer, and the front end of that clip was in such good condition that all he did was take it off the actual chassi and bolted on to his car! all for $3200 (Red top Sr20det)
