Like those early ones. Have you seen 4SFED (down under) Celica?

like so many other guys on this forum i own a 91 LS and im very intereted in this swap!! when i first bought the car i thought i would be diffrent and use the toyota v8 to race but there just isnt enough parts out there to turn it into a REAL monster. is there a site i can go to for more desriptive information on this paticular swap for the early Ls400 (motor mounts, power steering, a/c, electrical, etc)??? i know what it takes to compete with some of these ford, chevy and dodge power plants because ive owned some now it time to do something diffrent and its going to take major hp/tq to do it. any help it greatly appreciated.??

If you want more power without going with the swap there is a supercharger kit already available for out cars..with the cost of a Supra motor alone you can get your hands on one of these...
www.lextreme.com
And if you still want turbo, he is developing a single turbo kit for the LS400 V8's....
Just a food for thought.

retrodrive,
I got a hold of your cardomain link and I've got to say, very nice car indeed.
Made me re-think of what car I should get now.
I'll be checking your site too...

Waiting for the new bodykit. As soon as it is in it will need fitting and painting along with some other parts. Does your shop paint plastic also?

no, this is Evolution Exclusive. At first I was going to get this:
But then decided that moding it to fit 10/11 would be a pain and decided to go with something a little more agressive

I don't like the style of the fender flares in the wide version, I would rather do custom ones later exactly as I want them. My friend is putting it in his container so I would save on shipping.
