going to do a 3rd gen 3sgte swap soon, already engine shopping as well as other things Options

[gotian]

So as my topic stated I am getting ready to swap engines. I was originally planning on doing this around january but since my 5th gear just went out in my tranny I decided to push it forward. So I will be buying the engine along with the uncut harness and ECU. It will also be coming with the transmission. So here are my questions where I need help, and yes I've searched and searched and found info here and there but nothing really compiled all together. Car info: 94 GT Manual

First question, I know some people prefer to go the route of buying the complete front clip, but at almost a grand more it would be rather difficult for me to do that all in one shot, so what other parts would I need to do this swap.

Next question, I was planning on using my stock tranny but in the condition its in I would rather not. I know its possible to convert the AWD tranny to work with the FWD set-up so if someone can pass along the link of the how to that would be great.

Now obviously this isnt going to happen over night, we are going to be doing this in our shop so labor costs will be down. I am in no real rush so while you guys help me out I will keep searching for more and more info.

Thanks in advanced everyone

Have you actually priced the parts from the list that was gave to you?
And there availability? Just curious cuz I just finished my swap making a big mistake buying engine harness and ecu.
Plan on sending harness to Tweak he did mine $500 parts if new ordered from toyota your map sensor is $850 fuel resistor pack $250 coil another $80 and I will save u money on your front mount wta go to eBay get pump and front mount for a cobra if you buy used Toyota one it be around $500 as you can see your cost just keeps raising and that's not everything, I wish I saved another G and bought clip but if u need help or advice pm me

okay cool, and just to make sure, since I have a GT I can use the same GT mounts for it right? And if I decide to swap to another tranny then I have to make sure I use matching axles.

Depending on what tranny u use u have to get clutch cables and do some mods cuz I'm assuming u talking bout the mr2 tranny? Which when looking for parts u can use alot of mr2 3s parts
