Okay so earlier i asked what would be better for me regarding my two celicas and i decided to switch my st into a gt. I have a gt and st, but i want the hatch (st) instead of my coupe (gt). I looked around on here for how-to's but i didnt find any. This is my first swap and its a temporary thing until i sell my coupe then i will buy a 3s and replace the 5 from the hatch. Can someone guide me on doing this swap? thanks!

Sure, I can give you guidance. My first point of guidance will be to tell you that you're better off spending the money on a potential 5S swap to get your 7A completely healthy while throwing minor performance parts at it. Make sure the engine can breathe well and then concentrate on getting optimal exhaust flow. Your ST will feel up to par (or better) with a stock GT.
