Paul you do beautiful work. I'v followed thru your build of the mr8 and looked at a bunch of the other swaps you have done. As an mk1 owner it makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck to think about how fun it would be to build some and play with some of your creations.
lol the description is fairly accurate, the engine is from a Gen 6 Celica and is a 3S-GE, them others are just chattin, they probably don't know any other Toyota's exist except Supra's and Hi-Lux's
are there any vids of this car on the road? what did it cost all in? would love a mk1 with an engine conversion however not sure wether to go 3s-ge or 3vz-fe. whats the price differance?
not quite, he means thats the 3rd gen of the 3S. there are several more generations of the 3S... the 3 stands for "version" of the engine, not generation. . thats not a "gen 6" thats a gen 3 with paint like the above post states.
Thankyou for the kind comment Robo.

@reptilehunter2 It was as much work as getting a 3sgte to work minus the turbo stuff... so it needed all four engine mounts redoing etc

Do you have any pics or a diary posted of the swap? I would love to see if you made any mods to the engine bay, mounts trunk etc. Thanks.

3s-ge. 3s means it is the 3rd generation S-series engine. ge means wide angle performance valves, and fuel injection
