Juntao 5m swap to mk3 first I have heard of

[Guyana00]

I like it, for the most part of making 1 engine what was sitting there, 1 shell sitting there and putting one more Supra back on the road.

Cant wait to see more in the future on this

I agree, both are sitting around. No more money in it (or not much more) and why not. Beat it around and see how it goes. Boost it, break it and move on...lol.

But seriously, if it blows what do you think he'll do. Either put in a good engine or leave it alone again. This is his spare care and motor, he's messing around with something different. No benefits, but different.

oh lawd, Im going to do a 3sgte in mine!

Wheres the beef?
Not under that hood.

When your done with that why dont u come up here, we can pull the 5.7 out of my dads tundra, and replace it with a 22R.

lol, just kidding man, I would never, but major points for being unique!

12 Valves of whoop ass!

 

[Dakar2008]

this will be the most reliable mk3 ever to exist

 

[Quin]

Bamf. I'd definitely rock it.

You guys are missing the point. Free car, free motor. Very, very little money invested, most of the parts were just laying around. It'll get boosted soon, in the mean time it's a free reliable MkIII.

^that's if he can get past the wiring nightmare. 40+hp downgrade FTL.


Honestly, I am for this swap only bc it's completely offensive, but FFS please CLEAN your damn engine and engine bay. It annoys me to no end when someone takes the time to pull/install an engine and won't bother trying to make it look somewhat decent.

p.s. 5Ms blow head gaskets too.... hope you don't have a felpro on there :sarcasm:

Wiring nightmare ha. You must must not know how to read wiring schematics. A blind person can wire this in. :sarcasm:

Dirty engines are usually dirty because they usually run.:sarcasm:

not a laughing matter.. I was debating swapping a beams NA-T into mine.


as for the swap, "just do it, for shits and giggles" as my friend says.

 

[lpolo69]

^^^^
Like your post! Shits and Giggles is the best!

Exactly, it's what's left around. It's like what you'd do if you have an little engine around, a seat, and some tubing. Throw it all together.

He has an engine, a shell, a nice shell.

 

[lpolo69]

Its a Rust Free Clean Shell...

 

[Nalleywhacker]

I guess it would be cool, if you like stock honda civics flying past you:nono:

 

[Clip]

"this car'll turn on a dime, boy"
"yeah, cause it can't get over one!"

 

[Keros]

This is so rediculous, why would anyone one want to...


Do something so halariously awesome!

Good luck with the build!

 

[Guyana00]

Worst case, take the engine back out, and you're back where you started.

So much work...

 

[SupraMario]

I'm not going to open my mouth and rag on this as it seems a lot of you have never messed with a 5m. I'll watch and see if a boosted 5m hits 550+ tq/hp.

 

[bdcoaster]

Push, screw all the haters I like it because its different. I do agree with Tanya though, at least clean the engine bay... More power to yea man.!

 

[Dakar2008]

why are you all obsessed with cleaning the engine bay, it will be done, the engine bay would have been clean if the 7m that was in the car could make it to the car wash.................., thats why we put the 5m in there so we can drive it to the wash.... not everyone has engine degreasing power washer sitting in their garage...

 

[speedgilligan]

just go get some purple power from autozone, 5 or 6 old tshirts and a garden hose, you can degrease an army barracks with that shit

 

[IJ.]

huh???

Sorry was thinking of the plain 5m with the iron rocker pedestals.
