I just picked up my 3sgte engine swap. 80k miles usdm for $1500. The new engine has an Act clutch, Jun Flywheel, and jun cam gears. The engine should go in this weekend and I only need some small parts...1 mount, radiator fluid, and bolts. Add the mr2 to the list of cars running at bandi soon. Anyone wanna help install the new motor this weekend?

It's definitley going to be a learning experience, it's already been interesting pulling the engine, now for the hard part.

I'll let you guys know if I get all the parts I need, I'm going to get some parts today and degrese the engine later. I'll send pm's out tonight and let you know when the swap is taking place.

be shure to get the air out of the cooling system when you fire it up. you don't want to over heat the thing.

MR2's look like a bitch to work on, good luck.

yea, it should be fun. Hopefully I can get an engine hoist and have the car running monday, maybe earlier.

I'm gonna have to hold off and order some more parts before I install the engine. This sucks, the small things are holding me back.
