is there a guide that clearly explains how to replace drum brakes with calipers? i'm looking to swap out my rear drums...

go to www.toymods.org.au, then on the left hand side go to articles, then down the bottom is a section called other conversions. the tutorial is for a Gen 2 though i imagine it would be pretty similar.

big thanks on the site reference!!!

though i have yet to find the drum to caliper swap, i have found out that my engine code is SV10 and that by their guide, is able to house a 3S-GTE! yes, i did read the "This is neither definative, nor 100% accurate, but rather based on the opinions and experience of fellow ToyMods members." but still... i'm atleast excited to get my engine code down. seeing as it's nearly impossible to find elsewhere!

thanks again!

SV10 is a chassis code.

Your engine code is 2S-E.
