lightest car for a 3SGTE easy swap Mon, 22 March 2004 01:52 Go to previous message
Hi all,

I'm rebuilding a 3SGTE motor for my GT4 at the moment. When its in, I'll have my currrent motor spare.

Its in decent condition pushing the 1400kg GT4 to a quick(ish) 15 flat 1/4 mile in standard trim.

I want to buy a cheap car to swap the 3SGTE into to make a fun drag-only car.... I was thinking a SV21 Camry with no rego and engine problems for around $500 or so.. but they weigh around 1228kg, which is not super light.

Are there any other cheap and light cars that the east-west 3SGTE will go into? i don't really feel like converting it to a RWD motor.

Something around 1000kg would be sweet, which could drop down to around 900kg with pretty heavy weight loss.

any suggestions?
