you can always resell the big rotors and coilovers to help aid the cost of the engine since they are made for a gt four not a gt

for the st205 there are some things missing. You would need the igniter, the w2a fump and heat xchanger, pass side mount, ect. It is better to buy a clip, not just the motor.

And the 2JZGTE. Hrm. Would be fun fitting an inline six in front-to-back and converting to rear wheel drive.

^ what he said
the motor doesn't sit in the engine bay the same way our motors sit in the celica. if you can't do the swap, think about slapping a turbo on your 5s. it's easier to do, but you still need to pay attention to detail. or, you could read over defgreph's sticky post about the swap, gather *all* the information you can about it, and try to do it yourself. if you run in to any problems, make a post on here. lots of people have gotten help with their own swaps from the FI forum.
