What is this engine? I've just come across it and am interested. I like that it is NOT boosted, right?? I have a 96 GT with the 5SFE. How do I get the 3SGE? Is it a standard swap? What else do I need and exactly what is it again?? I know there is a Gen 3 with 173 hp? Please clue me in...

Yea you can run an auto on a redtop beams (they do come out with them) what auto tranny do you run atm? I have a stock automatic 1997 GT with the 5SFE. Just bought it last week and titled it this morning. I always wanted this car but I had relegated it to something I wouldn't buy since it was mostly impractical until now. Yes I know it might seem a waste to many to want to continue to use an automatic transmission when considering an engine swap but I really like the body style of the 6'th gen Celica and I know I'll have to replace the engine at some point as it has over 139k on it already. I may as well continue the hobby/fun factor and replace it with something that has a bit more power but that doesn't mean I have to compromise on the convenience I want out of my daily driving vehicle. I'd get more oomph and performance by tearing out the AC too but I'm not doing that either This post has been edited by raise: Mar 16, 2010 - 6:02 AM |
