I have a 94 celica st 5 speed. Ive recently been researching gt-4 swaps. Id like to do a full gt-4 swap on my car. I have the 7afe(1.8l) motor with the 5speed tranny in it. I need advice and help with my plans. Id like to put the 3sgte(2.2) turbo motor along with the 5speed awd tranny in my car. Id like to know helpful tips, tricks, and anything that might help me along with the swap. I know the the electrical part of the swap will be a complete nightmare but im willing to do it. Anyone with any knowledge on how i should go about do this please let me know.

I don't mean to be a Debbie Downer, but for the cost of the AWD conversion, you might as well import a real GT4. Don't get me wrong. I'd love to see this thread happen and I'd love to see another AWD conversion, but it's almost easier to just get the real thing.

I resisted commenting when I first saw that in that other thread, but now I just HAVE to.

An import isn't gonna happen, isn't the OP in USA?

An import is possible if you use the imagination, or own a business biggrin.gif
And yeah, the OP is in NC
