I'm from Md but I go to college in Washington State. It all depends on the equipment available to do the swap (lift etc..) I did my swap in about 5 evenings, hour wise I would say approx 30+ hours to do it if you had all parts and the proper tools at your disposal following the manual (if you havent had a Gs totally apart before).

I've done alot of work on the Gs /Is models and also my Supra so it kind of went quickly. Let me rephrase above, if you know what you are doing and don't have to follow the manual etc...20-25 hours. If you need to go step by step etc...it will take considerably longer, More like 30+ hours, I think i will edit my above post

Good job! When are you going to install the GT47 and that V160 sitting in your garage?

It does take the skill and knowledge. Also you have to think out side of the box!

nice! that's so impressive. anyway, i had some questions..
i'm a certified honda technician, been into hondas for like 8 years now. getting ready to buy my first GS300 in a few weeks.

anyway, how hard was the swap? i'm sure the mechanical aspect was a breeze, but how about wiring? i still don't know my toyotas too well, but i don't think the 98 GS3 came with VVTi. how hard was it wiring up?
also, does the GS have an immobilizer in the ECM, like honda/acura?
are other control units tied into that as well, like ABS, TCS or any other features a GS may have?

sorry for all the questions. if you can email me at mikekrules@hotmail.com or hit me up on this forum, i'd appreciate it.

once again, nice car! i hope mine can be similar.
