Hey! I'm new here so this is kinda a saying hello post and asking for advise. I have a 94 celica gt-s and lately as my motor as been gaining kilometers (I'm Canadian) I have been thinking about rebuilding the engine but I've always wanted more power so I've been researching motor swaps. So i'm wondering what would be my best option. 3S-GE? or the 3S-GTE? I was told the AWD motor can be fwd all i needed was a MR2 tranny and drive shaft? I'm not sure how true that is so I'm asking what i should do! Would the red top 3S-GE be noticeable from the 2.2 in mine already? I'm pretty sure it has the 5S-FE.

your question has been answered 3 times. the 3S-GTE will bolt right up to your stock transmission. that will make it FWD. and you do NOT want to use an MR2 transmission. the shifter linkage is on the wrong side. you want to use a Camry/Solara 5 speed. Its the same transmission with the linkage on the correct side.


Box has given you the absolute perfect answer.
