mr2 3sgte Q, searched but couldn't find info Options

[goferris]

hey all, i was looking online at some 3sgte clips and noticed how much cheaper the mr2t clips are then the gt4 clips that and i wouldn't have to get the tranny separate.
i know that there are some things diff between the gt4 3sgte and the mr2 3sgte. my Q is how much will have to be changed to drop it in my car? i have the gt so (from what i understand) i won't need to change the motor mounts. but other than the normal 3sgte swap stuff what extra will be needed to put the mr2 motor in?
if there is a thread about this already and someone know where it is please point me in the right direction.
thanks guys

I honestly did not notice much of a difference between the s54 and the e153 trannys. Then again my s54 was with a 5sfe and my e153 is linked to a 3's so obviously the top end power is different, and maybe that is why I do not notice the difference in transmissions as much. I would agree that the s54 is shorter geared, and you do burn through gears quicker, but it also increases your acceleration. I thought it was a good combo for a stock gt (short tranny gears w/ low end tq)
