From ST zero to GT hero!, Can i carry any components from my 1.8 to my 2.2? Options

[LAcelica94St]

Sup fellow 6G enthusiests, i need help.
My project is this: I have a 94 st and I would love to fix it. My car has tons of milage, dents and dings and scratches all over the place and even
a knocking sound that seems to come from the top of the engine. I dont really mind the blemishes, but the knocking sound is what drives me crazy.

Anyways, what i want to do is swap my old engine out, for this other one i got from my old job when i was a parts delivery guy.
Now i have a 5s-fe sitting on blocks, and i want to give it a home under my hood.
Can anyone tell me what, if anything, i can carry over from my 1.8 to my 2.2 (i.e.- transmission?)? plus im on a budget.. . . any tips, advise, or info would
be appreciated.

Thanks Fellas!

i can get the trans for cheap, the mounts are cheap too i believe. but the wire harness might be my biggest (maybe expensive) obstacle. plus the ecu. . . can i use or add an after market component to my already existing one??? a buddy told me, something about an attachment that goes with my ecu just to control the air and fuel mix. . . is this true???
i thought i would find most of my solutions at a junk, or salvage yard of something, what do you think?


2.2 anyone?

2.2 anyone?

you still need a Proper fully functioning 5s-fe Wiring harness and ECU or substitute the ECU with a EMS sysem which will cost u ALOT of money.

FIC or SAFC is the unit your talking about, controls AFR's thru the o2 sensor, do not work as your ECU.
you need to make sure the wiring harness/ecu you pick up is for a 94-95 Celica. a Camry 5s-fe harness will not work, neither will a 96-99.
your car is a 94, you need to stick with OBD1 or else you might have to do some public handouts to avoid registration/aircare issues
