Would it be possible to put in Two 3sgte motors into the Celica? Use the MR2 Rear stuff and the Celica front stuff? I'm planning on having the car for a while and just wondering if this would be slightly possible. I know that with money you can do anything, but I'm looking on the side of very very slightly pratical. At least I would be near positive I would be the only one(maybe two or three) with this done. What would need to be done? I am not aware of how to add a rear motor and how to combine the two motors to work together.

It would be very hard to tune this application. If done, you would probably want the front engine to run the front driveshaft and the rear engine to run the rear driveshaft. I have done this setup, not in my celica, but in my dads Fiero. The hard part would be fitting the back end with all the motor mounts and fabricating enough space for an engine and radiator support. If you want to do this, you would be looking at more then 200 hours of labor and fabricating. Basically by the time you got the rear to a point where it could fit something like another 3sgte, it would no longer look like a Celica. Your weight ratio would be completely off. Plus you would have to sychnonize the driveshafts on the same rotation. This CAN be done, but not practically. I say if you really want to go for it, but u run the risk of totally destroying your car and everything associated with it. But I am all for pushing the limits.
