how muck would it be to do a 1jz swap in my 87 mk3?

2200 for jdm motor and transmission.1500 for a good shop to swap. PLEASE put your question in your own post. I don't want my thread jacked. YOur question just didn't really pertain to my post. HOPe I answered your question.

lol.. thread jackers.. the bain of the online community. :p

well if you want to know cost then check back tomorrow. I will update my build with prices for each stage.

have you thought about getting a lighter driveshaft.. carbon fiber yea?

What are some benefits with my build?

Same benefit as a lightened flywheel: reduced rotating mass.

Also, less looses due to the center joint on the OEM two piece drive shaft. And with a CF one if/when it finally does fail it'll just turn into a cool and expensive broom and won't come through the floorboard.


The negative is that one piece drive shafts are more likely to fail than a two piece... BUT there is another option..... a custom LIGHTWEIGHT two piece made to order by a local DS shop!

please correct me if im wrong just going from memory..

100 lbs ='s 1 second increase in the 1/4 mile
10lbs rotational mass is = to 150 pounds stagnant.

I have added the prices bro or broett.. Whichever! None the less. If it's out of reach for your pockets. A good start would be to stage 3. You will get a good boost of HP in the mods there..
