Hey all!
I have a st204 GT that i have had since i was 16. Still has the stock 5sfe in her but i am thinking ahead for the future. Has anyone ever heard of swapping in a 3sgte engine and tranny from a toyota caldina???? I was thinking this would be a smoother choice than straining a stock tranny with a 3sgte motor slapped on it. Any thoughts or input?? Thanks! -Kevin |

The Caldina 3S-GTE (more commonly referred to as the 4th gen 3S-GTE) has been done a few times in a Celica but is getting very popular in MR2's. You should check out Prime Performance in New Jersey ( http://www.primemr2.com ) as they specialize in the 4th gen swap and will do it in a Celica for $4,000. That's all inclusive, and they do excellent work!
