there is a fine line between frankenstiening a car ala "monster garage" and the mix and match bolt ons. This is what seperates certain engine and tranny combos from the rest. What I mean is we (non-jessy james people) have to work with what FITS !!

If the tranny doesn't bolt to: (refering to only the 6th gen)
a)engines (3SGTE, 7AFE, 5SFE)
b)tranny mounts
c)axle set (right length, right splines+spline lenght)
d)compatible shifter cables

you can forget about it, you will not make it fit without extensive custom work and expensive custom parts. Go back to the drawing board and pick something else.

not nescessarily...for some this is pretty much easily accomplished once the foreground is set for them---the hardest thing honestly would be welding a mounting position(s) into the engine bay...even that can be had for mere bucks also.

once thats done its pretty much dropping basics on installing a tranny but with the addition of an adaptor plate if need be

if you think it's so easy, i think you should try it.
if you think an "adaptor plate" is the solution and it will work then easily weld in some mounts, all you're missing is a set of axles and shifter cables

seriously tho, try it and come back to us with results. I'm all about new things in the Celica
