North Carolina is a long way to freight a built engine from?
PM "sheldrake" on these forums. i know he has a 2T/3T motor, complete with webbers, T50 gearbox, etc, sitting in a shed doing nothing. it made a solid 86kw at the wheels. motor was pulled out of a TA22 celica. might be a better option than dealing with a company from overseas... although the dollar is good at the moment!
SHEPPO..
why not fit a 20V instead? for the same money you will leave the T engine behind, or atleast I think so
He's a proud owner of a rust free TA22 Sam ! Doesn't seem right putting a late model EFI motor in a car when you can make just as much grunt with a well built T motor and keep it period specific. Will cost similar money, and in 10 years the 20V powered TA22 will be worth less money than a neat period built car. Sheppo's mate sounds the goods to me.
beerhead why not go for a 2TG its period and certainly more sort after than a 2T or 3T in the bay. For 3 to 4 grand you can have a nice healthy stroked twin cam 2TG which will push out the same amount of power with the awesome sound of twin carbs
cheerz for the replies ppl
the 2t/3t in sheldrakes shed mite be a good idea the main prob for me is that the engine bulders that i know dont know much about theas motors wich lead me to think about retro fits but that means the engineerig(pain in th ass) dose anyone know of anyone knowe of a good builder in vic who knows theas motors well? another thing is that im inpationt to gt the motor descided on so i can get the engine bay blasted n pained dont want to hav to do it twice mmmmmm flat black with metalic red engie bay mmmmmm but people call me savagebtw has anyon on hear seen a flat blck ta22 locked all over for a pick but cant find one
thanks for all the healp people keep it coming

2 options:
- find an engine builder(s) that know about Toyota motors - someone-else's ignorance shouldn't be a reason for you to waste cash on an imported motor
- read the many 2T/3T GE and Hybrid threads on here about re-building motors. This isn't rocket science and with the right research, tools and friends, you should be able to build your own motor without much hassle.
Good luck with that - TA22's don't last at all at wreckers and if they've ended up there, the car will be utterly fucked. They're way too rare to sit in wrecking yards waiting for enthusiasts. Try eBay and the classified sections of here or Ozcelica or similar forums.
Btw, some spelling and punctuation in your posts would also be helpful. SMS-speak is for mobile phones and Myspace.
hey thanks for that.locked at a lot of the hybrid therads just dont want to run the risk of buggering it up my self. for some reason my spell check dosent ever work and the laptop i us is stuffed and my owne spelling and grammar s crappyto say the least.sms speak is just my lazey habit not a good one i agree.the lure of this company is that idont have to scorce individual parts my self and just buy a crate motor but back to the reasherch i guess
thanks
freshly built 2tgeu interest you at all? basically would be supplied as a plug and play item. Just finished rebuilding my 22 and sold it, but swapped the motor out for a 2t as required for the new owner.
having problems with my photo host site, will post them up as soon as i can.
P.S. there is another modder interested in this so if its good, first in best dressed.
