you have a 5sfte? as in a turbo 5s? and your calling it crappy!?! haha i wish my engine had boost frown.gif


I think that he's a little confused with the engine codes.

Stock gt-gts 5SFE
Stock alltrac- 3SGTE

you can do the swap. All you need is a full longblock with ECU and harness. The point of concern here is the strength of the 5S tranny. You will need to look into getting an MR2 TURBO tranny and modifying the driveshafts from the MR2 to fit the GTS. If you don't want to do the trans work, the stock 5S tranny should hold up IF you don't get too boost happy. (so yea you'll be looking for a new tranny soon after the swap. wink.gif )
