hey, im new to this forum so idk really whats goin on exactly so any help would be good help and also im basically a retart when it comes to cars so yea....i have a 94 celica and i wanna take out the stock engine and swap it for something faster... ive done some research and as far as i know the only thing ive heard of being possible is the 3sgte swap but i heard of the all trac one and the MR2 one....if i swaped it with the MR2 engine would i have to do all the crap with making it RWD? are there any other engine swaps that i can do w.o having to get a whole new engine harness, ECU and all that? please help me out....thanks

read the stickies, lots of information there.

i browsed through them but im still uncertain on some things....do i have to convert it to RWD? and like would the MR2 3s-GTE engine and trans drop right in? im totally lost will all of it.

You don't make the car RWD. You keep it FWD. The MR2 tranny is actually set up like a FWD tranny except for the shifter stuff. Besides, you can use a stock GT tranny with the 3SGTE engine.

Again, read the stickies and do searches, there's a LOT of info here. Don't just "browse" them. Or, save up a few grand and bring your car to my shop and don't worry about it. >>

thanks guys

I was about to reply to your thread on TN and I was like, wait a sec, I recognize this post!!! LOL

haha yea im tryin to get as much info as i can lol

ok so ive been lookin through the stickies and looking through this and aother forums....so just to make myself 100% sure cause i mean this is a HUGE project to take up .....if i get an MR2 3sgte engine it will indeed just drop/bolt into my 94 celica and it should all hook up correctly? and i shouldnt have a problem with using my stock tranny? i do have another question (sry i dont mean to bombard u guys with em but u kno) the MR2 tranny i understand it was like reversed or something to make it RWD? does that mean i could just flip it round to make it front wheel cause my stock tranny has 130k miles on it do u think thats too much?
thanks again guys
