^ Agreed. First you need a good mech and electrician. You will need a complete engine, gearbox, harness, ecu, axels, you will also need to get a fuel pump, upgrade your fuel lines and you exhaust. You should also change your timing belt, acc. belts, fluids etc.

Are you converting from auto to manual? Talk to reddo 23 he did the conversion recently in his tercel.

Well I think you got all the advice you'll need here. Good contributions by everyone.

Once again, it is a straightforward swap. Get all the parts you'll need to get FIRST. That way you'd minimize downtime while the swap is in progress and setting aside time to go buy/look for things. IF everything goes smoothly, you could have the car up and running within a week and spend another week for light tuning.

I also have a great mechanic who can handle you - he's based in Chaguanas. PM me if you want to meet him.

question about the fuel pump does it have to be from a starlet or could i use another?

reddo_tuner · Posted: Mon Jun 23, 2008 9:36 pm Post subject:

a have an external, but i would recommend getting an internal pump that is designed for turbo cars. It goes inside your gas tank. It can be another, but if u get a starlet , less work.
