96 Celica GT FWD - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #96622 6 posts Started by Jtuando12498
I was wondering what would be an estimated cost to perform an engine swap on my FWD 96 Celica GT ? I know majority of the 3sgte utilize an AWD celica but how could I drop a turbocharged engine into my FWD celica without converting to an AWD. And what engine would I need to consider investing into ? Has this been done before ? Can I use a MR2 engine and if so how ? Please explain with great detail and prices and what materials I would need.

Thanks

please excuse the bluntness as I can see you are new here, but if you plan to do an engine swap, I would suggest you do some research on the forum as the topic is covered VERY widely and extensively

as far as material do you mean like aluminum pop rivets and jdm zipties?
