QUOTE (NEVERSTOP @ Dec 6 2002, 10:23 PM) the 4agze will NOT work in a 6th gen Celica...period. The engine will not work because it is not a "S" motor... the subframe is completly different. Just because a 3sgte and 5sfe fit into a MR2 doesn't mean that a 4agze will fit into a 6th gen. The MR2 with the 4agze is from 87-89 The MR2 with the 5sfe and 3sgte are from 90-95 These MR2's  have different subframe and will not work as swaps for each other. Cost to power ratio the 3sgte swap it the best there is for a 6th gen. and as for the 3sgte being front wheel drive you can do the rearend conversion for under a grand.  If you buy your 3sgte engine the right way it will come with the allwheel drive transmission. all you need is the transfer case and rear end... you will need new shocks and struts and have to relocate the gas tank but its way worth it. yeah dude, you're completely mis-informed about this. 4age and 4agze are basically the same, mounting wise, and i've seen the n/a version in a 6th gen, nad there's currently a guy swappinn the blown version in a 5th gen ST on celica.net. also, the 4agze is the engine of choice by me and one of my better friends on celica.net...the only thing you gotta do is move some of the equipment around. and as far as bang for your buck...the 3sgte and the 4agze are about equal money/power wise, but the 4agze is a much easier swap to complete. and yes, if you are gonnna go up past 200hp TO THE WHEELS w/ the 4agze, but that's another story.

oh btw NEVERSTOP, not all 6th gens have the S series engine like the GT...that's why the 4agze fits in the ST. b/c of the A series engine (7afe). but um...that's already been pointed out...anyway, research some buddy, you'll get it figured out.
