gen3 3sgte into st165 gt4??? Tue, 17 May 2005 01:42 Go to next message

just wondering if any1 had done this kind of conversion b4?

if so what is the costs and what troubles did you have?

are the engine mounts the same, and does it mate up to the 165 gearbox?

i know a new aftermarket computer would be required, as the st165 is an AFM to start with, but i know there must be more to look at.

is this a good conversion idea? or should the money be better spent on rebuilding the current first gen1 3sgte. has any1 converted the gen1 3sgte to MAP sensor?

thanks for any respone guys.

it can be done - you have to change some wiring issues due to the different ECUs

Ask puffy - hes done the swap into a st185 - and toof i think as well has done it ..

Im wondering are you considering a gen3 thats at a well known toyo parts dealer in melb or not

Its not really worth it unless you were to use the gen 3 box aswell. You would be much better spending the cash on an after market ECU, FMIC and hi-flowed turbo.
