Hey all, I've owned my '94 Celica ST for about a year now, and my step-sister owned it before before that, and her mom before that... Anyway its been in the family a wile and has almost 200k miles on it.

I'm planing on doing an engine swap with the 3S-GTE sooner or later, but I've been reading about VVT-i on the new toyota engines... and I've seen it put on the older supra 2JZ engines... I was wondering if it can be done to Gen3/Gen4 3S-GTE engine.

Also what tranny would you guys sugest? (Its currently an automatic, want to change to a manual...)

quick question but everyone is recommending the mr2t tranny ofcourse becuz its factory made for the 3sgte but the gt tranny is a much much easier swap into an st considering all u need is gt axles and gt mounts and linkages which come with the tranny so my question is has there been reported yet any gt trannys giving out under the power of the 3sgte becuz i havent seen anyone with problems using it?
