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

For somethin someone can answer in 10 secs

Thanks for your contribution

open wide, spoon is on its way.

the reason why not many have experiences with the stock clutch, is because is a royal pain to replace it after the engine is installed, why run the risk of wanting more power down the road and trashing a brand new clutch because it wasnt desing for that amount of power ? yes, I read you said you dont want more than stock, that's what most people say when swapping their engines, and 3 months later the car starts to feel slow again, and power is a boost controller away.

I may have mis advised you before, reading deeper into your answers, you should keep looking for someone to do it for you that's if you want the car to run again. unless you are willing to spend countless hours reading and reading and then doing some reading, you better get that checkbook ready.
