Well iam about to start my 5sgte project , right after i graduate from hs ( this summer:D ). I already have gather the main parts for the build, 98 5sfe block, 98 5sfe crank, i have a spare 3sgte longblock sitting in my garage , and apexi power fc
. Both the celica and corolla/prism have a 7afe. . I havent compared the wiring from a St celica and a corolla/prism but since the the ecu's are interchangeable then they have some kind of similaraty . . My 3sgte swap Comes from an st celica so the wiring may not be a big issue. . Since both the celica and corolla/prism have the same tranny and use similar if not the same cv jont. then the corollas/prism wheel hub Should be able to accept Celica GT's cv joints , or a hybird cv joint using a mixture of both . . Has for the passenger and driver mounts i think i can use the celica Gt's, since i was able to use the stock mounts from my celica in the Geo. . Now for the crossmember and the rest of the motor mounts i have no idea . Shifter cables i have no idea lol I been searching but i cant find any website or forum that has info on a 3sgte swap on a 93/97 corolla/prism chassis , so lmk if yall can find any info . Any type of ideas or help is welcomed -------------------- |

Do a 4age turbo set up. The 4age is a bulletproof motor and shares the same mounts as a 7afe. Also the 4age is a much cheaper motor. I have a 96 corolla with a turbo 4age if you want to see how it looks.

I have a 96 corolla with a turbo 4age if you want to see how it looks. thats bad ass can you post some pics? the reason i dont want to go with 4age its becaus i have a spare 3sgte swap that came from an ST celica and i might buy a corolla really cheap . So i want to see what can i do with what i have . -------------------- |
