You will definitely have to add some youtube videos of this when it's completed. I want to see it in action!

Don't worry we will have some high quality start up videos and as time goes by some very good driving/doughnut vids...... i meant the video will be very good by the way, not the driving

Hey Paul, I just finished re-reading this page and realized that this was also your project, once I got to the bottom of it. So how is the v6 working so far?

I built that v6 mk1 many years ago now, i ended up scrapping the shell due to rust issues.Since then i have built a lot of v6 mk1's all still going strong, my favourite has got to be the 1mz-fe mk1 swap though.

Well that's just Mk1 v6 stuff, we have built over 50 mk2 v6's (too many to show you!) ,4 v6 celicas.... here are two we did at the same time...



4 Mk3 Mr2 v6's ....





A 2gr-fe into mk2 (we have 8 of these to build this year,2 of which are mk1 2gr's) ....



A monster 5vz-fe turbo build...



Countless 3s-gte mk1 swaps....



And we have taken in our first 3s-gte corolla swap along with possibly a paseo 3s-gte to build later this year as well.... pretty much Toyota engine conversions are our life.

Agreed. Excellent work! Makes my 20v Mk1 swap seem infantile...

It really isn't that hard, i have written a few "how to" guides in the past and the wiring is easy too.If you know someone that can weld your mounts in and fab up bits and pieces you are there.

That's like Jesus telling us that resurrections are easy. "See, you just wave your hand over them and they come back to life!" :P
