Check this link for the front clips http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...;hl=venus+jarco . Front clips are best so you know you'll have everything you need for a swap. I'm telling you, your probably going to need more money for miscellaneous things. And please read the stickies on info on How to swap.

witch gen 3sgte is the best fit for my 95 celica st ?

[jcbass7]

either a 2nd gen or 3rd gen, if you have the money 3rd gen is nice, but second gen is just fine. all depends on your power goals and bank account. i have the 2nd gen and its great. you will need to change some mounts out to get the 3sgte into an ST but its very simple

2nd or 3rd gen ....realy ? hhmm guess i was hoping to be able to do a newer one. see i have a front clip out of a 4th gen celica with a 3sge in it ..... so i figured i could use the tranny out of that and i was hoping to get either that 94 or 97 3sgte front clip from venus auto parts sence they right around the power i looking to start out with when this is done

We are talking about generation of the 3sgte engine not the generation of celica models.. a 3rd gen 3sgte is out of a 94-99 GT4 which is what you are talking about with the 94 or 97 clip.

For example my car has a 2nd generation 3sgte which came out of a JDM 93' Alltrac (5th Gen celica GT4)
