St215 Coupe AT215?? - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #94175 9 posts Started by TRDMR2MK2
First I wanted to say thank you to all the people on this board for sharing their knowledge. All the mods I have done to my car I have searched and found on this site. I want to thank all the contributors sharing the experiences good and bad.. Ok now on to the car. I bought my 95 ST Coupe Auto about 2 years ago from a coworker at a great price.. Motor was knocking but driveable. My initial plan was to rebuild the worn out 7A But then decided I might as well do a swap as rebuilding a motor was not my forte. I have done N/A to Turbo Mr2 swaps so I chose the 4th gen 3SGTE for its newer design. Don't really have any pictures after I completed the swap, I'll try and find some and post later. The power on the 4th gen is amazing, unbelievable the how powerful it is in stock form. Here are some crappy iphone pics of my progress..
First day I bought her

As she sits now face lift bumper TC Wheels

I tried smogging before the swap but it failed. I happen to know a guy lol..
Forgot to add some future goals and mods.
Paint car most likely keeping it white
Add some coilovers..leaning towards BC Racing
Purchase foglights
Thinking of a Toms lip with rear curren splitters.
What I'm currently working on

Picked this up over the weekend.. Junk yard find


My brother had a left over steering wheel from his st215 MR2

Also picked up. A DCW Single gauge pod from a member here.

And finally a couple pictures I promised

Good job so far. Looking forward to this build.
Nice! I was wandering what you're going to do with that dcw single gauge pod. I very much wanted a 4th gen swap too!

Thanks for the words of encouragement! The 4th gen is amazing. Great acceleration insane power.. Glad I chose this Gen.. Thx for the great deal on the gauge pod Silly97. Your car is the reason why I want the Toms lip!
A lil over due for an update.. Work has been killer and I finally had time to do the steering wheel swap.



7th gen clock spring harness spliced/soldered in. Airbag did not deploy on start up whoooo lol




All in all not to bad of a swap. Wiring was the most nail biting part but glad it worked out ok
Still waiting to do the single gauge pod.. Debating which boost gauge to buy
