When did you do the conversion? Did you do it yourself? Where are you located (can't read plate well enough).
Currently in the middle of the same thing  (see signature).

Given your username of "RA64toms", I'm guessing you're in the US. California? 1Gs aren't a common engine in the states AFAIK, you have to import them a lot further than we do!

I am from Manila, Philippines.
1) My 1G-GTE conversion was done a year ago. The engine is a 3rd gen from a GA70 celica I think. Conversion in the engine bay is not as difficult as expected. Only had the front cowl frame trimmed to fit the radiator. As for the cooling system, I only run 2 bosch aux fans, 1 of which is used when the A/C is on.
2) I had the front lip locally produced out of fiberglass, the design was done by myself. Labor here in Manila is really cheap,
I spent around 3000 pesos ($60USD) for the lip fabrication. I also had a rear mini-duck tail done...
3) My other car is a 1986 Lancer EX2000 turbo (considered the father of all EVO's), the basic car was sold in market as the Lancer GSR. Its an original unit used for rally in the mid 80's. It has complete original chassis & body reinforcements, including a rollcage, upgraded brakes & a powerful 1st gen 4G63 SOHC turbo engine which can run side by side with my Celica.

The CPU is an aftermarket by Mines... other than that, the engine is basically stock.
