19cturbo Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) Here are some of the cleanest swaps and most well put together cars that i know of.. For you purest who can really appreciate how these cars are able to evolve.. To me a purest is someone who can see these cars and appreciate them for what they are and what they can become.. someone who doesnt talk down to others for not knowing, and knows there are more than one ways to skin a cat.. Not just everyone can slap one of these together, there is much more involved than just tossing in another motor and transmission. You need a wealth of knowledge to pull this of and make it look right. Not only do you have to deal with issues of a 20+ year old car's wiring, but you add another twist of an engine that was never supposed to be there. That makes diagnosing issues even tougher because even a FSM wont tell you what to look for because you have a hybrid of two different car. Youve taken two totally different beast and merged them into on. I applaud you all for that and nice work! Post up anymore if you have pictures. http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd23/19cturbo/engine%20swaps/johnsls1swap_zps5dd5c939.jpg http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd23/19cturbo/engine%20swaps/fiji2jzswap_zps4bd8b971.jpg http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd23/19cturbo/engine%20swaps/red4gswap_zpsd55c5e79.jpg http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd23/19cturbo/engine%20swaps/scottsls1swap_zpsf7c3d50f.jpg http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd23/19cturbo/engine%20swaps/bradens2jzswap_zpsab55cd4c.jpg http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd23/19cturbo/engine%20swaps/harrysv8_zps8ec1644d.jpg http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd23/19cturbo/engine%20swaps/jasonsls1swap_zps28842c22.jpg http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd23/19cturbo/engine%20swaps/black2jzswap_zpsa1950a14.jpg http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd23/19cturbo/engine%20swaps/my1jswap_zpsc2713b83.jpg Edited January 21, 2014 by 19cturbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeph_tsi Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Can't find any good pics of mine, although it really isn't as clean as most of these. I was planning on starting a thread in swapper section with some of the improvements I've done recently though, maybe this is the incentive I needed. Time to pull 'er into the garage and snap some pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeph_tsi Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 I'll have to snap a few tomorrow, I've gotta have some already just can't find them. Its a little cleaner now, still has a way to go to make me happy. I just relocated the ecu to above the glovebox inside the dash and installed a dakota digital adapter to fix my stock tach so now I'm using all stock gauges (except boost). also found some heater core hoses that fit perfect without any splicing. Still on the hunt for a swaybar though! I need to get off my arse and start a thread in swappers with the part numbers on the heater hoses, temp sending unit, tach adaptor, etc... I'm not sure on the turbos, still on my stockers at the moment but if they crap out I've got a 35r that could use a home! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is your hitting your pan? yep, hitting the pan, I tried spacers and got it working but took it back off because it didn't look good to me. So I've been measuring and trying out swaybars at the junkyard when I get the chance to, I've tried a few but nothing fits quite right yet and its too cold right now.
