MCS is a big forum vendor at mr2oc and they are great. we had a communication issue but the job they did was immaculate. id recommend them again just for being a 3sgte specialist.


Thanks man!

Oh, I'm not knocking you for not doing it yourself at all. Definitely anyone who does it for a living (MCS) would be the better choice. Just get her up and running soon with some vids and pics biggrin.gif !

CLOSED on 25 acres!-shop coming soon....
Ok guy huge change in plans hehe, I am not sending my head away I am going to do everything myself, ill be more prode of the result.
Here what i am going to do Not using the motor I sold it in fact, Ill be using my 3rd gen 3SGE with alot of custom work incuding inlet manifold ect, I am still using the parts I have now.
Next week ordering clutch, timing belt gasket, All HKS, have one slight dilemma, What F**king Transmisson should I use, Will the mr2 LSD tranny be the best choice I currently have the S54 but there are no clutches for it, there are but small diameter, I want power so hence larger diameter
Also ill be using the standar head for this as the cams have longer durations and higher life smile.gif
I need some good advice before ordering my clutch!!!
From the mr2s' I've seen use the s54 tran. but they're output is around 400 whp. I would believe it would work for the extra 100+whp you're wanting.

The clutch is much smaller than that of the E153 and it is lees durable :S
interesting plans alan.
i would go with the e153, not so much because of clutch size (its only 11mm diffrence between the s54 (225mm) VS the e153 (236mm) but because of gearing.
if your planning on tracking the car (which i hope you are) you'll be better served by the e153 gearing.

The gearing isn't that much of a difference. You need to remember that the EU/JDM S54 tranny has a smaller F/D (3.9xx compared to the US 4.2xx) thus effectively having longer gears.

JDM Powerplant installed, BPU coming very soon!
I need shorter gears as I dont see alot at the quater mile only 108 mph 13sec for now but I only got to 3rd gear Pressure what u mean by tracking the car :s?
Awesome build so far.

"Tracking" I would assume he means Racing the car.

Yeah me to man I no it has better gearing but the clutch sizes does matter apart from that you dont find many good clutches for the S54
The only problem Is the tranny is $1100 from my country abit expensive for another tranny and ill prob break it haha

I see them, but you should really just get a valve job done on the head, and port match it while its off...."keeping it stock to see how much can be done" has already been done, and its something that will just kink your progress later.

though that head looks clean as a whistle now smile.gif

Coming along nicely! as for an intake manifold you have a 3rd gen head right? im pretty sure a 4th gen caldina manifold would be your best bet.

What you mean? I dont know how much power I can make out of the 3SGE head I never used it when it was turbo, I am only polishing the ports ect, but the later work would include bigger cams, porting race spec, HKS valve springs, and ferrea valves, retainers ect, but this will be done when I conver it to AWD, as I am also doing that smile.gif
