5s-fe to 5s-fe swapping Options

[celi_gt_racer]

I've recently read in an old sport compact car issue - that the power in N/A mr2 cars was bumped up in 93 to 135 hp (im assuming at the flywheel). Isn't that still alot better than the 97' gt's 5s-fe? Since my motor's on it's way out neway - i thought i'd look into finding a 93 n/a mr2 (preferably wrecked) and salvage it's motor. Can ne1 confirm the 135hp on these motors? and since they're both 5s-fe's ... would i have any problems swapping the mr2 motor in, or have to deal w/ any ECU problems or downgrade the OBD? Thanks for any answers or oppinions

dont bother, its all the same motor. the only slight power changes are probably in the way the ecu is tuned.

get the newest 5sfe you can find with the lowest milage possible. a 93 would be a downgrade. try to find a 98-99 motor if u can.

the 94+ mr2 motor is the same motor thats in the 94-99 celica.
like art said, if your looking for a better 5sfe, your best bet is to look for one outta a 98-99 celica, or camry.

A 97 gt still has the 135 hp at the flywheel. Toyota bumped up the power for the 5s-fe in 94 from 130 to 135, but if it is a california car then you will only have 130 because they had to meet emissions. Definately go with a newer engine!
