put the supra engine in the tC

 

if it's me. i'll take the supra!
pics of supra?

 

87 for $1500 with basically s brand new motor

 

 

hahahahhahahaaha i am i am hhahaha

 

Dang man, I am not trying to talk you out of it....but that is going to be a MONEY PIT.

 

explain please

 

a money pit is a 5,000 dollar boost to a motor engineered to be N/A.....engine swaps are done on the regular in honda, VW, and especially Toyota. 1500 for the supra motor.....it might take another 1000 or 2 to do the swap, much cheaper than boost....and the supra engine is already built to handle boost. And finally....it would be downright filthy

 

Problem supra is rwd tc is front

 

Just flip the enigine in the installment LOL!

 

It’s only a 90° flip, but isn’t the Supra a straight 6? How will you stick a straight 6 sideways in there?

 

the supra is a straight six dual cam turbo'd and i thought there is some sort of mounting issue trying to put a rwd engin in a fwd car maybe im wrong hell never tryed it anyways here are some pics of the supra im gonna call that build black ninja and its getting blacked the ____ out once everything mech is good on it
im supposed to go sat or sunday to take a look at it and make my final decision

 

WOW!!! still clean... just need to clean under the hood... i like!!!

 

super clean engine, i like it!

 

my girl has a MarkV gti and a good number in the vw forums swap out their turbo 4cyl for the vr6 six cylinder from the jettas. I don't have any personal experience with engine swaps, but apparently with a little metal fab. it's not too bad......but w/those pics, i do like the supra in and of itself. it'd be cool for someone to do a swap though.....i remember some company dropping a v8 Toyota Tundra engine in a second gen xB, so its def. feasible.

 

^biggest problem with all that is the fact that if a company does it they have the tools and experience to do it kinda like five axis tC 2 concept body kit (the red one) plus iv only done rust repair (metal patches) never done any other metal fab

 

just like this tacoma motor in a yaris.....

 

That (VW engine) is a V6 and not much longer than an I4...but the Supra engine is an I6 and longer than a V8! I don't think that anybody builds a FWD car with the engine mounted longitudinally...they are all transversely mounted. My point was that the car will have to be twice as wide to fit that Supra engine in sideways. Now sticking a V6 sideways is not that big a problem…it’s just bulkier fore-aft and there is plenty of room in there for that extra bulk of a V6.

 

^yea im just gonna stick with the gas mileage i get with the tC motor and keep my warranty and play with the supra but i did just find out when i get rims for the tC i can put the stock rims on the Supra same bolt pattern

 

went and looked at the car today the pictures of the exterior are a bit old the paint isnt in as nice of condition but from the looks of everything overall i like it he didnt have a battery in it so i couldnt start everything looked good clutch was still smooth as well as all 6 gears 1-5 and reverse
