4A-GE/GZE Transmission Question, Regarding shift linkage cables Options

[Coomer]

Hi,
I'm considering doing an AE101 20 valve 4A-GE or an AE101 4A-GZE this summer if I can get the funds together, and if I do a swap at all I'm definitely going to swap transmissions, because I think my synchros are going bad on my tranny. I was wondering, if I swap a new transmission into my car, will I need to change shift linkage cables, or anything like that, or will the new transmission bolt right up to the existing shift linkage cables?

My friend and I are trying to get an idea of exactly how much work a a-series engine swap would be and what exactly we'd need to do. I've got my parents convinced to let me do the 20 valve 4A-GE...I'm hoping I can get them to let me do the 4A-GZE.

I definitely want to go for the 4A-GZE, but my parents are concerned that I'd drive too fast with it. They say that there's no use for more power, because there's still speed limits.

get the 4agze, it's way better for non-racing. the tranny on the 4agze and the 4age 20V is the same series as the one used on the celica, just a newer version, the cables should line up fine.

tell them the 4agze gets way better gas mileage.
