thats some hardcore work going on that car...Im a honda guy..but I always appreciate cars like this...because its different and the work...time..money.. and talent thats goes to this car...good luck man...hope to see a video of this car running..

 

My friend did a swap in his celica as well YEARS ago, now he has a 98 tt supra. His name is jspecb18c on all the forums, pm him if you have a question, or if you want to show him.

 

Thanks!

 

No problem. he knows everything about everything that has to do with toyota. he had the body style after yours, with the even newer front end conversion, and the non turbo motor jdm swap. The 3sge I think.
I think he used the usdm tranny and ecu?

 

good job and great detailed writeup. please post vids when you get everything dialed in!

 

Its a possibility yeah..if his had round headlights after it was done it is a 6th gen front bumper and fenders...i'm not sure if they'll bolt on or not, really haven't looked in to it, i like the 5th gen the way it is . I know that the GT-S fenders will bolt onto my car, and they are a little wider...just isn't worth fooling with right now.

3sge should be right...

I'm actually using a JDM harness and ecu out of a alltrac 3sgte, but you still have to extend the harness and everything because where it goes through the firewall is exactly opposite on the usdm cars vs. the jdm ones.

I'll post some videos and whatnot in a few weeks when we're on spring break. It's getting warm and i'm itchin' to drive it .
