3s-gte

this is my first post in a while. before everyone responds saying "SEARCH" i have a couple questions. first off on ebay they have serveral 3sgte motors. i have a 94 camry. would this motor bolt in or would i have to get mounts. also will the transaxles fit? or would i need to replace those. and also ppl have been saying that the solara 5 spd. tranny is best for this swap would this be the most cost effective or would it just be easier to get a 5spd. from camry. the motors come w/ the awd trans. so would i be able to sell or trade that for the other trans.? sorry if everyone gettin mad b/c i made this post i 've looked through the previous posts and have gotten help, but i dont wanna buy all this stuff and find out that a lot of fabrication is going to be in involved. cuz mo' money === mo' prob. thanks guys or should i say screw it and buy a new car???? i really like my camry but it has little power and im tired of barely being able to get up and go lol. i wanna show ppl what camry's are really able to do. thanks

You would have to get custom motor mounts, ecu, hubs, etc.
Yes alot of fabrication would be involved in that type of swap but I'm planning on doing it and I think it would be worth it. Another motor you could swap into your Camry would be the 1MZFE. It's a V6 and a turbo kit is coming out soon for it

and the engine comes with the tranny and ecu/wiring harness. and what exactly are hubs? the things at the end of the axles? thanks for responding though. where are u getting ur engine from? i think im gonna get it from www.totaljdm.com
