  2. engine transplant

    in General Celica Discussion

    Posted

    I have a 2003 conversion kit with 90,000 miles going cheap if you can collect before the end of this month, conversion is no harder than swapping engine

    What kind of price would i be looking at for a fully system off u ams? And would there be any chance of a part ex with mine only having done 25,000 miles?

    Would a second hand cheap whole car be easier? As will you not need clocks loombs ecu engine and box? Maybe drive shafts, brakes and stuff.

    Matt i did look into another car but having somewhere to put it is an issue :(

    hi guys so iv been looking into swapping out my 140 lump to come to the land of lift :drool: , should have bought 1 in the 1st place i know but insurance was an issue.

    anywayyyyy iv been looking on ebay at some lumps all going for around £1000 but only for the engine. now i am aware that im goin to need gear box and other bits and peaces. do i need a interior loom aswell and engine bay loom? what else will i be needing.

    my current 140 engine was rebuilt in august 2011 and has only covered 25,000 miles since its full rebuilt i have paper work to show this. what kind of money would i be looking at to get for this or would i be able to some kind of part ex for the full system for a 190 swap? i know se7ens does a conversion for £2000 but from what i remember that includes my lump in exchange aswell. im going to have a pop at it myself with a few like minded friends who r mechanics just been some idea on what im going to need and how muvh this is going to set me back, tango needs a new heart :thumbs:

    Hi guys right iv found a custom exhaust nay is sellin it as his car is under a big change as alot of u know my question is i know that this is coming off a 190 and is a manifold bk exhaust i have a 140 and im looking to chop this exhaust down to cat back so it still passes emmisions tests. My understanding is that the pipes on both cars r different sizes the garage i hve spoke to have say they can but a reducer on the pipe would this be ok? As i know r cars are all about back pressure and i dont want to do any damage to the car. Im aute nay doesnt mind me posting as better to be safe then sorry :)
