Ok, I will be doing a 3sgte swap on my Celica this year. I have a 1994 ST AT200. The car will be getting a gt4 front end, 3sgte engine, and AWD conversion. Which is why I am here. I wanted to know what it takes to swap the rear end to make my car all wheel drive. I have searched and searched and only came across bits and pieces of information. Can anyone help?

They'll see it's a Celica, they'll see it's a turbo charged engine, they'll see that that year Celica never came with a turbo charged engine and FAIL.

But it has to be a 94 or 95 USDM MR2. its just like putting a 97 2JZ-GTE in a 94 SC300. the engine is newer than the car that its going into. -------------------- 2001 Celica GT-S Turbo

So it should be CARB and smog legal if I use a California spec 3sgte or install EGR on a JDM 3sgte?? There is a place in Chico that does the EGR installation on JDM 3sgte's. |
