I'm sorry but all Woodsport swaps come shiney wether you want that or not, my engine bays get seen all over the world and i only have one standard of finish. I have been asked to do "budget" installs before and it does my reputation no good at all, so all of them leave show standard.
The good news is this doesn't affect the price, so you're getting the detailing for free.
You need a budget of around £5500- £6000 for a supplied and fitted turnkey 3s-gte swap, i would be able to offset your 20v engine against some of that.
For info i have a 6 month waiting list, any questions please ask, thanks Paul.

I agree completely, I've always been surprised at what some companies will do for their customers, putting their customer's preference over their own work standard.

3vz corolla but its an auto
Hey it's a guy who live here in Québec. Yeah he put a V6 3.0L Dohc 24 valves 3VZFE (JDM version). But before that he had a AE101 with a blacktop 20v with the 6 speed transmission. He said that the blacktop sucks terribly(too slow) and talk too much shit on 4age and was banned in a french corolla forum here. Soo he decided to swap a V6 in a corolla. Took 5 months for the swap LOL . All things are custom, not bolt-on. Anyway here some pics:

I know from building a 3vz-fe Rav4 that the rear manifold wants to hit everywhere and plumbing it up is a nightmare, this looks very similar, nicely done though.
