Hi guys,
I'm new to engine Mods. Im trying to swap out my engine, which is a 7AFE engine AUTO to an 3SGE engine AUTO or 3stge Engine. Im sure about the bugs i'm be getting. Does the 3SGE Engine has an all wheel drive, and can a RHD 6c be converted to a LHD easily? Thanks

Welcome.

The 3S-GE was never offered with AWD.
The 3S-GTE only came in Celicas with AWD.

Converting to LHD will require a firewall from a LHD Celica, along with all of the components that bolt on either side of it. Dash, pedals, HVAC, etc.

Basically you need the front half of a LHD Celica

Thanks
I own an LHD 6gc, I could swap it with an 3S-GE with no problems then. But will I need the back half?

You'd only need the back for a AWD conversion, which really you don't need that back half when you can get the rear subframe/shaft etc etc and weld it up. Few have done it here, give the forum a search with the keywords of what you are trying to accomplish in its respective section. Tends to yield moderate to well results.
