I told myself a while ago the only motor swaps i would do would be a 22rte, or 3tgte. lol. but i figure id like to have a non-boosted dd. lol. Coming across a w58 isnt a problem in tucson, plenty of celicas in the yard, heck. could probably just go thru a celica and get every lil bit and just have a celica drivetrain powered rolla. lol. The 6.3" diff doesnt hold up much torque does it? hmmm. Id love to do a high comp 20r head and have a fun little 22r beatin around. maybe a nice little cam and id be set. but now i have this damn 3tc head and cam and what not... hmmm. who would be interested in that stuff? or trades? hmmm? lol
1ggze? 1ggte? Ive heard of the later, wasn't aware of a supercharged version... but there are a few in the states(gte). both MkIII's and MkII's. its hmm.
There's an 18RG on craigslist for 700 complete.
I still have at least 2 18RGs, but no extra carbs. I can sell you one cheap without carbs.
That's N/A and the 18R block is narrower than the 22R, so it would fit the crossmember better than the 22R. It still needs a W-50.
The 18R is a high revving motor, not a like the torque of the 22R, so the rearend should last.
The 1gg is a 6-cyl, but it's only 2.0 liters, so it's almost like having a 4ag with 2 extra cylinders. It's twincam and revs to the sky. It's gotta be super light.
I've done the 20r/22r combo. It's pretty nice. Great midrange torque, just no more power after 5k.
