I am starting the process of a 3sgte swap, I just wanted to know if it matters that the engine is for AWD. Do I have to convert my Celica to AWD to drop an AWD 3sgte engine in? Or is it okay just to direct all that power to the front wheels? If I do have to convert to AWD has anyone ever done it??
 Thanks for any replys!!!

If you use the GT tranny you need to be careful. I am currently using the E-153 tranny, however I dont do hard launches or anything real abrasive to the tranny. I do get on the car most all the time, its a performance engine, its made to perform, the tranny is not. I've been using it almost a year now without having gearing problems. However, im constantly thinking about it, and im convinced theres more power than what im actually feeling, so i'm getting an MR2 tranny, its just safer.
