Engine Swap Options

[Blk94St]

Hi everyone. This summer I plan to put a Blacktop 4age in my 94 Celica St. I don't want a 3sgte/3sge/5sfe, so please don't tell me to. That is what most people here have done for swaps.. well so it seems. (besides my friends brother just bout a 91 Mr2 with a 3sgte in it, and OMG that thing is crazy fast. I love the engine but moneys gonna be tight and me+turbo= Serious trouble) I'm 18 and my parents don't dish out money. So i'm paying for this.

I have just a few questions though. What is all needed?

I know this much already:
Engine
Wiring Harness
ECU
and get someone to do the wiring

Anything else?

I plan to just use my tranny b/c I'm still in school and i'm not going to the track or try to race someone 24/7, and if it ever went out i'd get another tranny. (i'm saying i'm not going to be romping on it all the time) I just want more power so I just know it's their and for bragging. I'd plan on putting it in myself with the help of a friend and his brother.

Basically how much would this run me for the necessities, and could you give me a price range for everything i need individually.

I'd greatly appreciate it.

You need a throttle cable of a 5sfe engine. Any car will work as long as its that 5sfe throttle cable because yours is too short.
How much money do you have for this so far?

Your Tranny is gonna be just fine - it's not like your talking about a huge increase in TQ here. It's just a small bump [Fun engine tho]

Tell me how it goes, I may consider this.

[Blk94St]

yes, yes it is fun. I have 500 right now and get 500 when school lets out, and 1 week after i get out i start my full time summer job $500 a week so around july i should have around$2400-$3000



BTW the Mr2 in my signature is my friend who's going to help me's 86 Mr2 with a blacktop in it. oh, your talkin about a fast toy! well for it to be N/A

Custom a/c lines and p/s lines if you want them, and a little bit of exhaust work, a few odds and ends here and there. Let me know if you would like us to take care of the wiring for you, we do a lot of those swaps

Hey, Doc Tweek did a great job on my harness when I did my swap. I would recommend his help and services.
