It's going to cost just about as much as a 7A to 3S swap, only much slower.

The engine might be cheaper, but you'd still have to get the correct transmission I assume, axles, etc.

Corollas, Geos, hell, you can even drop a 4AFE in there.

I've been looking for the past 2 weeks. Honestly, 10 minutes after I made this thread i found one for $300 running with 128k, i don't know if it's exactly it yet (could be a 1zz or w.e), but i will go see soon.

with the money you'll spend get something more worth it like a 4age.

^ He's looking for something that he can drop in and go. 4AFE can run on a 7A ECU, so it's PnP, but a 4AG won't be a plug and play deal.
Plus a 4AGE lacks all of the low end torque the 7A has, so to most it will actually feel slower. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money
