Your dropping in a 3SGE? For all the effort in that, why not go 3SGTE? Unless you've found a BEAMS motor...mmm tasty...

Paul
because this is cheaper and the clip comes with the engine and all required wiring etc...

besides, now if I want to turbo, I don't have to stick with the ct26 turbo and can go with a better setup ... whereas now I wouldn't touch the 5SFE in my car, because it's a piece of crap and not worth doing engine work to...

hey Stew, are those headlights stock or aftermarket? and I've already asked that if the taillights are intact, they send those along as well (the clip I'm getting is probably a rear-accident car, hence the being 'intact' thing)

projectors are crazzyyyy amounts of money
they do look crazy sick, but damn way too much imo for headlgiths..

stew check on 6gc.net.. tons of the guys there have them and im almost positive theres a guy that imports them in.. lots of hookups for parts from over seas on there.. thats where i got my front and rear lip from.. the guy was in japan and shipping only took a week.. no problems with the guy whatsoever.. might be able to talk to him

they'll prolly have some info abuot the curren too since its so closely related to my gen celica, ryan!

excellent site for info and such

lol, good luck!
the way i see it, those 6th gen guys on there would know where the cheapest ones are... theres so many guys on there from so many different areas of the world that they'd know..

i'll spend my money elsewhere.. but if for whatever reason i had that much left over, i'd get them in a heart beat for sure

$600 per headlight is crazy! why not just buy a front clip? lol might be cheaper to buy a whole front end if they're just stock headlights lol

I can certainly source those lights from Aus, but they're going to be (as SexyCeli points out) big bucks, and aimed for the wrong side of the road.

Good luck in the hunt!
