im wanting to do a swap Options

[mneal2_92788]

alright i have lookeed at a few engines, i think i may get a 4AGZE or a 4AGE. i want the z b/c its already turboed and comes with everything i would need including an ECU for 1200 plus shipping. what do you all think? any better ideas?

mmkk, then, what info does anyone have about a 3s swap? i found one thats turbo with the wireing harness, ECU, 5-speed tranny, and everything else. its a 3SGTE and is also 1200.

oh, it has the intercooler too, it has everything, and it is a direct bolt on, i will more than likely go with the 3SGTE, thanx for the help all

alright, before i complete my decision, i need to know if a 1JZGTTE Twin Turbo will fit in a gt celica. i know its a 2.5 and twin turboed, but would it bolt in or would mods galore be needed? is the 3SGTE better?

Whoa! man you gotta slow down. youre getting way ahead of yourself. First off, the 3s is not entirely a direct bolt on, even with the GT. It will definitely be easier if you use the same tranny and cables but you still have to worry about having your wiring done, some form of custom exhaust work, if you want to keep a/c you have to switch over the pump...etc. there are many variables. Which leads me to my second point, you should really look into buying a clip apposed to just the engine itself with a harness. You will be missing many things that are neccesary for the swap, and it will cause you headaches.

And No, a 1jz will not fit, its a 6cyl rwd motor which will require huge custom fabrication which will cost a lot of $ long story short, wont work

You should get familliar with the stickies at the top of the forums, there is plenty of research there. About 95% of your questions will be answered there. what ever your decide on, good luck with it!
