7AFE to 3SGE, swap Options

[ArizonaRed]

I have a 7AFE and want to put in a 3SGE in it. Will i need a whole front clip to do it to avoid buying other parts? Will I need to do all new wiring for it? New ECU? Will the engine fit right in or will I have to build new support for it? I'm thinking about trashing my 7AFE turbo and putting the 3SGE in. My Engine has high miles on it and its not worth the work to rebuild. Any help would be appreciated. Wondering if I could get a list or something of stuff to to to complete the swap, I havent really seen anybody do a 3SGE before, just a 3SGTE.

Hello,

I am new to Celica technology. Search button in this forum gives so many replies, that i cant filter out anything useful from it, so i think it is easier to ask directly my question.
I am planning to buy a Celica 1994, which has blown 7A-FE and owner gives me additional 3S-GE with harness an 2 geaboxes from Celica 1987.
Does the swap look like this:
1. Engine harness replacement. Are ECU wires easily separated from whole electrical harness?
2. Engine mounts must be modified/bought new. Are the engine mount locations almost identical?
3. Gear shift linkage system dircet bolt on?
4. Does 7A-FE drive axles have appropriate length and number of teeth on them to fit in 3S-GE transmission?
5. Is 6. gen 7AFE fuel pump suitable for 3SGE ?



Thank You in Advance
Henrik

thanks for using the search button.

1) no there is not a seperate electrical haraness for the engine. The engine haraness is integrated with the body haraness on the celica

2) No the 7AFE does not share any common engine mounts with the 3sge engine. You will need to use gt4 motor mounts or the gt motor mounts. please search for more information

3) gear shift link will vary depending on the transmission. since they made so many 1987 celica models that range from the 1987 gts gt4 st. I cant give you an answer.

4) no the 7afe transmission axels will not work.

5) 7afe fuel pump might* work. the general rule of thumb is: If your going to change the motor, you might as well change out the tire old fuel pump. If and since your going from a 1.8 liter engine to a 2.0 liter engine, the fuel pump might fail during the upper rpms.
