Need Some Engine Swap Advice Options

[wogstaa]

Hi guys,

I've decided that I'm keeping my Celica (st204) and will very likely be looking at doing an engine swap.

I was thinking a beams red top but then it seems like a 3sgte will be the easier option from what I've read.
I've read that the standard 5SFE manual tranny should handle it but I did see conflicting posts on this.

I'm planning on keeping it as a daily driver and just wanted something a bit quicker.

Has anyone in Sydney, Australia done this swap before and know a shop that has done the job before?

There's an ST205 half cut for sale at the moment but I won't have the cash for another few months, as I'm planning on installing coilovers and a few other things in the coming months before finding someone to do the swap.

Thanks

Regardless of which route you go, since you're keeping it a DD the #1 priority to me would be availability of parts should something take a turn for the worse.
