I am about to begin my quest into swapping the celica. My first thought was to get the 3s-gte like everyone else and laugh at every civic that comes my way. hahahaha. But that would be the easy way out. i want to be able to kill other racers without going turbo. so i was thinking about the 3S-GE. Beams if possible to obtain. i wanna know if this engine has a chance against the GSR engines.

i read somewher else on the site not long ago at all that 3s-ge's are really rare- and because of that, pricey. Also, the BEAMS wiring is much more complicated. Evidence of this is the fact that nobody has completed this swap. I tire of those who are like- if you are gunna go that route why not get the 3sgte... the first reason that comes to my mind is that the car is FWD. That and its like excuse me for being different... lol...
