Rhode Island Project Celica Options

[LimitedGT4]

hey, not sure if this is the right place to post this and sorry if its not, but here goes.

I live in RI and am trying to do an engine swap and cant decide between the Beams, GT4 or a 4age silver or black top.
i know theres a couple of people in this forum that live in RI and have awesome cars but i havent been able to get their attention or help so lets see if you guys can.
i have a 97 ST limited and so far ive gather that i need new mounts, tranny, possibly exhaust, trans axles, and complete engine for a beams or GT4 swap
and ill need an engine if i plan to go with the 4age or am i missing something else also.

as far as the wiring goes for the beams engine is it a plug n play if i get a celica st202 front clip? or am i better off getting parts seperately

as my project progresses i will continue to post updates, hopefully batman and hurley will help me out.

ill also post pics later

thanks for help in advance

Still looking for a celica mechanic in the RI/MA area to do my swap at least
someone to help me figure out if i have everything i need
So far i got a gt4 full clip with all the parts so i knw ill need a tranny
still not sure whats best if the gt tge 3sge or the mr2 turbo
Besides that do i still need mounts? Or are the ones in the clip sufficient
can i use the same axles if i use the 3sge tranny? what else will i need if i use that tranny
i have all of the jdm components including lights, etc so rewiring the harness will be VERY minimal i think
as i plan to keep all the JDM components i got like the temp control ac, ecu, fuse relay boxes etc,
even the steering column if necessary and doable
if no one can do the swap for me comon guys at least help me finish the list so i can take it to a proshop
