Okay I have read many threads and im still confused. i've talked to baddica about his awd stuff he has. here are some pictures he sent me:
     i was reading celiman05's thread about his awd conversion and he doesn't state how he did it. i will not be doing it because my cousin is helping me. he is great at fabricating and welding. but im not sure if baddica has all the stuff needed. someone help me out on things that are needed. YEs i do have the finances to do this. since baddica lives near me i could just scoop up his awd conversion stuff. well help me out. im very interested in doing this. --------------------  |

Fixing the bugs that come up with just swapping the motor in to the GT/ST shell can be pretty intense, I don't even want to know what kind of problems you'd have with a complete drivetrain swap. These guys that are 'nay sayers' in this thread are just doing it to save people a headache which could cost thousands of dollars, or personal injury due to improper installation.
Even if the swap was done professionally by 1000's of Toyota engineers, it would still not be 100% the same as a genuine ST205. While nothing is impossible with a huge budget, the ends do not justify the means. If you want an AWD turbo'd car, buy one that was made that way.
