    I'll pretend you didn't mention legalities...

    As for buying, Call LUKE at Toyrolla Spares in Epping.

    03 9401 4366

    He'll do you a deal, you should be able to get an engine and gearbox around $1400

    Yeah, that's with the 4 speed.

    You can get a straight engine from them for less.

    Mind you, that doesn't include harness and ECU.

    Nope, but I'd be pretty surprised if at least 15 people on this forum haven't done that already.
