well im a 4g owner and u guys need to help me heh.

im puttin a 5sfe into my 86 gt-s (3s ge)

i know everything else shold drop in fine but i hear the wiring sucks.
how hard is it and can some1 give me some pointers?

Pointers... Get the wiring diagrams for each car and start there, or if you don't mind paying someone, I'm sure Dr. Tweak can do your harness for you. It's going to take a fair amount of rewiring and that's not a very common swap from what I've seen so documentation will be hard to come by. At the very least you will have to install the fusebox and some interior plugs from the 3SGE harness onto the 5SFE harness.. Most people tend to do the opposite and go with a 3SGE in place of their 5SFE.

On a side note... If you're going to part out the 3SGE PM me with a price for the intake manifold.

well who is dr tweak and how much would it cost?
i know the swap is weird but i have my reasons.

as for parting out im not sure if im gonna keep the ge and just build it with it out then re swap yet. if i do ill get back to u

I'm Dr Tweak, and it will cost $350

for just the harness right? what does it consist of ;p

Yeap, here ya go:

thanks for the info, i got some people to help but if i get stuck i may give u a call heh. failing is a good way to learn

Find yourself a 3SFE powered 4th gen Celica and take the engine harness, ECU, distributor, coil/ignitor, and manifolds. The manifolds, dizzy, etc should bolt onto the 5SFE... then run the 3SFE engine harness and ECU...

but i already have everything for the 5sfe ;p

im not doing it right away, gotta buy some stuff to build it a bit first

now not to throw a wrench in your plans, but unless your 3sge died and you had a 5sfe laying around for cheap, why put the piece of crap (for power that is) that is the 5sfe in your car?

edit: my apologies didnt mean to sound so harsh, what i mean is, why did you choose the 5sfe?
