Hey, people. I am planning on doing a 3sgte swap to my ST sometime, I'm not sure when though. I do know that I want to swap the transmission though (hopefully soon). My question...is there a transmission that I could put on my 7afe that I could also use on the 3sgte in the future? I know that if I had a GT I could just use the transmission for a v-6 camry, but I'm not sure if that would work with an ST.

Thanks for the help! >>

Sorry to tell you but to my knowledge there isn't a tranny that would work with a 7afe and a 3sgte. I gota the same motor and I ben researching for months now. You either use the gt tranny and move motor mounts, v6 camry, or what I'm doing is using the MR2 motor and tranny. According to my friend's dad at Toyota the MR2 motor and tranny will drop right in a celica. Reason being is the celi and MR2 got the same blocks but different heads. It's just going from back to front. Mounts line up, tranny mite need new axles or not? But thats it. Hope I could help out since no1 else said any thing.

NO because they are 2 different engine families A series (4age, 4agze, 7afe, 4afe)
and the S family (3sgte, 5sfe,3sge,3sfe)

you can use a tranny of the same family but not another

wow nicely said nik
