3sge 3d gen swap help Options

[mi645]

So I have a 99 stock Celica gt I just got a 3d gen 3sge with full wiring uncut I was wondering web I swap this motor do I need to sauter or slice and wire anything or it all bolts in even the wiring?
Also do we use the oem 5sfe fuse box or the new 3sge fuse box?
I'm currently tuning up the motor new timing belt water pump etc.
Motor came with exhaust manifold but no b pipe does the stock 5sfe
Exhaust manifold bolt on? Just for temporary use?
Any advice from anyone please Ive been googling and searching threads but found nothing for 3d gen swap not beams.
What do I have to modify? Do I need to convert a fuel filter or bracket? The fuel lines are uncut on the motor I got only thing seems to be cut is the shifter cables and axels

As with any JDM(RHD) motor into your USDM(LHD) celicas, from what I've seen other members do, you need to:
extend the wiring harness to reach the hole in the firewall or
make or use another hole

I'm not 100% sure about the 5sfe exhaust manifold fitting the 3S-GE head in terms of bolt pattern and also clearance under the sump


Have a look at KAOS and czwalga project threads. The 3S-GE swap is pretty close to the beams, but with the need for the white 9,000rpm cluster or modded cluster, but would suggest getting the black 9,000rpm cluster for yours.

I used my stock cluster without a problem.


Harness needs to be extended about 2-3 feet. Around 60 or so wires. My harness was cut, so I pretty much merged a 5sfe and 3sge harness together taking what i need from where. I've made 3 different b-pipes, and broke them all. Damn skid plate is bubbled and keeps coming up and cracking it.
