On the contrary,

I picked up a complete 18R-GEU with complete loom, a bosch H/Pres pump and and ECU for $500. All i needed was new clutch and extractors and few little things, and its almost ready to go. Motor even came with original Air flow Metre and unifilter, but got lost on the way to SA somehow Neutral

I just want to see what sort of gains i get from the old 18Rc...

Eastie, i think if you have the time and a steady income(or savings) id go a 1G conversion.. Not many people have done it in adelaide, and they may let you do it fairly easily with engineering, because it is a 2 litre into 2 litre... even if youre adding 2 cylinders. Plus you have an auto so it may be easier to modify that crossmember to fit the w58?.. or its just a wider trans tunnel, which also helps.

Engineering is around $1400 all up i think, but then youve gotta do brakes and struts, plus you may want a better diff than the stocker?? thats a bit of work, but in the end you'll have one crazy-tuff celica,

The 18rg is the easiest bolt in job, so if you wanna do a swap yourself thatd be the most straight forward as has been said.

Anyway bro, good luck with whatever path you take, and youll have to check out my 28 when its finally done. It would have been inside the place you got the car from....

Anyway Catchyo,

Guy
