The n/a celica axles I used on mine fit straight into my n/a mkI hubs and I just needed to lengthen the rear track width a bit to stop the axles bottoming out in the housing. The wiring took about 20 hours but it was a celica motor (and loom) which had not been documented like the 3sgte swap, another mk1.5 guy I was talking to said 6hours for him and he was a wiring noob using Paul woods guide. Once it runs though the mk1.5 is a little beast It sh**s over the 4agze I had in it the torque difference and better top end of the 3sge makes it better than the lightly modded 4agze and ultimatly with a turbo setup more potential. Plus the parts are easier to get.

This weekend is its first high speed run if the event doesn't get cancelled I may get an in car film and post it somewhere if I have time.
