i know there is a sticky on the forums for engine swaps but i couldnt find anything on swapping my 7afe motor for the 7th gen celica gts motor and tranny. Does anyone know anything about it? do i need custom motor mounts and will it not work completely

It can be done but will take a lot of custom work. Check the stickies for the feasible and non feasible swaps thread. It explains nicely why the 2ZZ isn't really a good choice for the 6th gen.
I should add that the thread was written several years ago when the 2ZZ was much newer. The cost has come down now and with all the V6 swaps going around, the 2ZZ is now more feasible than it was then. However, I personally wouldn't touch it due to the crazy wiring work to be done, custom mounts, and most importantly, the 2ZZ is backwards in comparison to the 7A. The intake is towards the bumper and exhaust is towards the firewall.
