It's not really that dirty in person, it is pretty dusty though.

The turbo doesn't say anything on it that tells what it is, just says Toyota. The one-peice design is pretty standard these days, most every turbo car out there is using it. The SRT4, for example.

No maintenance items on the engine were done other than the clutch. Normally I recommend a full reseal/timing belt/water pump, but we didn't because 1. Money and 2. This engine is a '99 so it's quite new compared to the '93 or older 2nd gens that we're usually dealing with.

Hey doc my name is jaryd and i will hopefully be atempting a swap here very soon. I heard that i could send you the wiring harness to get it rewired to fit my 1994 st. how much will this cost and do i need to send the harness from my st and the one from the new engine or just the new engine harness. also if it is not to much to ask would you be able to check out the following to engines and tell me what you think if they are any good or not.

and
http://www.jarcoinc.com/inventory/halfcuts/ (its the st 185 rc about halfway through the toyota section, its got a leaky radiator but nothing else wrong with it and 85,000 miles on it ive seen a video of it running and boosting) thanks for the help doc hope to hear back soon.
P.S. if you wish not to help i realize you are probably very busy and its ok if you do not have time to do this but thanks again.

now my background.

you got that all swapped in in less than a month!! my gosh you do fast work

Ahahaha, I love that picture. I demand more PICTURES and VIDEOS.

sweetness!!!!!!!!!

Congrats to you

Mann bro looks awsome, youre a pioneer too. LEt us know how the St215 is....and then tell me about that price lol

>

If you have the complete ST harness and the complete 3SGTE harness, then the cost is $350 plus $30 for shipping, and yes, I will need both of the harnesses.

As for the engines, just make sure that you're getting an uncut harness, with ECU, coil and ignitor, resistor packs, AFM (for the 2nd gen) and MAP sensor. As long as you're getting all of that and the importer has a decent reputation, you should be good to go.

-Doc

veryy cool! sickest **** ever! i was waiting for someone to do an st215.


love the front mount, and that picture.

6gc.net Demands videos, and more pictures.


steve..bring that **** up to ny, and give me a shout.

I've got a bunch more pics at the shop, but I've got a big show going down this weekend so I won't be able to put them up until Monday.

Well... I suppose that if you all asked VERY nicely I could get a up a little earlier and upload them in the morning...

pretty please?

good work tweek!
enjoy the boost man!!

good job doc... another 1 under your belt!!! make these celica guys happy... love to see good work... you go DOC!!!

ah the swap was AWESOME! tweak took her on this parkway and OPENED HER UP! it was CRAZY! i dont want to say exactly how fast we were going in 4th gear but it was VERY impressive! illneversellmyceli was in the back seat gettin thrown around! i must say it was WELL worth the wait! to all the wanna-be swappers soon to be swappers- IT IS WORTH IT! the feel is awesome from 7a-3s....is a WRAP! hands down the high point of my year!

BTW....doc set my car at low boost mode 8psi as a precaution until i get a boost controller and gauges installed...i cant IMAGINE how its going to feel at 14psi...

UNFORTUNATLEY...the radiator BLEW UP....literally! its was CRAZY how it happend (nobody was hurt thank god)...had a hairline crack in the radiator and once i pulled into autozone (around the corner from tweak's shop THANK GOD) it blew. liquid spouted out a few feet in all directions and got all over some lady's truck next to me (she freaked out) . so its still in ga and doc (who seemed more upset about the whole thing than me ) is going to throw another ST radiator in.

doc has been GREAT he perfected everything and remained patient with me (even when i got testy and antsy) and was professional the whole time...if you want your swap done RIGHT take it to the man!

Illneversellmyceli came along and has been BIG help the whole time! he put up the $$ for me to pay for the radiator! i owe him big time! he even offered to take me back next weekend to get the car. shout out to illneversell!

YEp I had a blast, I never imagined how much of an impovement the swap is. NUmbers are numbers but wow is all you can say when you get to feel it.

oh yeah matt btw nice to meet glad to help you out, I felt so bad when your radiator blew, that's like getting your christmas presents taken away from you after you open them lol.

Oh yeah tweak is the man, you all new that. But he went out of his way to try to get us radiator adn made sure we got matt's beast celi back to the shop.

No it's time to fix up easternpro's interior, i think i can help their.

Oh yeah matt why haven't you posted alive pics yet lol. oops yeah you did it's on page 4. HEY EVERY BODY THINK I HAVE A CAREER IN PHOTOGRAPHY LOL, I TOOK THAT PIC.

well even though we did not bring it home that was the most fun I've had in a while felt jsut liek a rollercaoster ride.

oh ya future tweak customer here indeed

this is me neversellmycelli (name is NICK btw) , and tweak right besdie matt's celli. Just had this pic taken to prove i was there lol

that grin tweak had is classic, its the same grin he had when we rolled up on the shop

just wait untill you turn up the boost. its a whole new car.

glad you like it tho. after a while, you wont remember how a stock celica feels.

Looking for these?





This, I think, is pretty sick. From time to time I'll run into an engine that has had the oil drained out of it for some time, and it will have a hard time picking the oil up during the priming process (removing spark plugs and cranking with the EFI fuse pulled). So I was trying to think of a good way to get the oil system primed. Then inspiration struck... why not use an old fuel pump, and hook it up to the oil pressure fitting? (BK cup is full of engine oil)



Note the custom install of the factory 4th Gen 3SGTE's Blow-off Valve. It sounds nice, too!



Proof that it's now a manual!





"Hey Doc, you didn't get a "Dr Tweak" pose done for me. That AIN'T COOL, man. You're going DOWN!"



"But the engine is already in!!! Well, let me think here..."



AHA!

First 4th Gen swap on 6gc? Nice work Tweak as usual and congrats on the new engine Piro.

There was a guy a while ago that posted his up, he lives up in Quebec, but I don't know if he ever got it running right or not. This baby runs perfect, no CELs. So I guess it's the second one.

-Doc

Looks really good man. I NEED SOME CASH!!!!!

Hi, i was doing this but ended up with the third gen instead, i still have the cladina block that is fully built, and the head and turbo as well, the manifold went on the motor in the car.

but anyways, is there anyway you can get a pic of the MAF, i would like to know exactly what it looks like, is it at the TB? or befor the turbo
