ok so i know most ppl would just go 3sgte if they were doing a swap but not many ppl have a '90gts w/a decent 5sfe engine sitting around.. so i need some help!
I have: 1990 celica gts w/2.2L 5sfe engine 5spd tranny (120k miles on both)
I have: 1995 celica st 1.8L 7afe engine 5spd tranny (270k miles on both)

I WANT::: 1995 celica GT w/the '90 2.2L 5sfe (rebuilt) & matching 5spd tranny (new basics- clutch, synchros, etc)..
now.. how do i get there??

I know i need (among other parts i'm sure..): new motor mounts, new axles, new shifter cables, new gaskets for the 5sfe, new spark plugs, new lines (vac lines etc..?), new radiator and probably a new fuel pump.

What else would i need and would you guys suggest turboing the engine before dropping it if i can afford to? or wut should i do to make that process easier down the road... I have lots of working room available. Need info. I have a few parts from a 2nd gen 3sgte.. intake manifold and cam gears. will these serve any use?

OK guys/girls of 6gc.net please lend me all the info you have and parts that i'm going to need to purchase.. thanks for the info in advance.
