Hey guys.

As we all know the most common and favorable motor to swap in a celica is the 3sgte. And the perfect weight distribution for front -to -rear is 50/50. But how much heavier is the 3s compared to the 5sfe and 7afte.

How is the balance of the celica affected after the swap? Is it going to be like a h22 swap crx? ( aka fat girl sitting on your hood?)

i've decided to do the swap on Jan. i've got all quotes, gonna get the front clip from venus auto and ship it to my mechanic, total comes up to be 3400 (clip, shipping, labor) if nothing needs to be replaced. still deciding on which FMIC to get, thought of getting the Blitz FMIC and custom the piping, you guys think that's possible? i'm still looking through the forum to find as many information as i can to get a better idea on the swap. is there anyone here in NYC that'll be able to help me out? like just come over. look at my 6gc and give me a better understanding on what is gonna happen. sorry if i'm asking too many questions, this is my first swap.... btw, anyone here able to sell me a 6gc.net decal?

these seem like the type of questions you should be asking your mechanic. esp since you will be paying him.
