I was concerning doing a major head upgrade to my 5SFE. But after reading and comparing prices I'm looking at swapping out the 5SFE to a 3SGE. Has anyone on the site done this? I've looked around and have just found 4age and 3sgte swaps. I know some of you guys across the ocean have 3sge's but y'all got that nice engine w/ the car. Is the swap like the 3SGTE swap? I will need a new ecu and re-wire. but will I need a different trans? Let me know. As of right now I have 1,200 in the bank but will have some more soon. So I'm looking at doing it within the next couple months.

There are no significant differences between the Japanese version and the other overseas versions.
