Cool looking car!

BUT, .. ;) no offense, but the "real" RC, CS or Grp A ... is a GT-Four, not a GT... :p

well after some major setbacks, i am almost finished with the 3s swap. i bought a jdm gt4 ecu from jarco and a jdm harness of a buddy here.
i still need a distributor and to fix my throttle body. other than that she's almost road worthy.

i thought above it said 5sfte and then below u said something about a 3S swap ... so which motor r u using? ...... just wondering how the 5sfte worked out and if u now have the 3s in then i guess not that good.

ps - what's up with the for sale sign in th ewindow.

well,
the 5sfe was getting on my nerves to put it lightly. i put forged pistons and rebuilt the block and re did everything and then i blew a headgasket.
after reinstalling the headgasket i broke a cam on reinstalling the head. i got a used head cheap and i was having problems with it smoking. i thought it might have been the seating on the gapless rings, but i dont know what was causing the smoke. i was tired of all the problems and i had my 3sgte from my mr2 i totaled last year.so i decided to swap to the 3sgte.

:D

Why didn't you use the 3S head, and the 5S block? Or is that what you were doing.
Is that Unorthodox Pulley the crank pulley? If so I would dump it. Not good for the engine.
