Hey im sure this has already been discussed before but i cant find much on it.
My question is.. Do any of the parts off the mr2 fit the celica motor? For example Cams? cam gears? pulleys? heads? Anything and everything. I want to build the internals of my celica motor. (5sfe) Im trying to get as much H.P as i can and have a strong motor before i turbo or Hook up nitrous.

Secondly.. Im considering a 5sGE Conversion... What cars had the 3sge in them? Im gonna go to a junk yard and buy aa 3sge for parts them probably port and polish the head and swap it on my 5sfe block.. If i was to do the head swap what else is required? do i need to change computers or injectors etc etc?

Any help would be great thanks

the 3sge came in some of the 4th gen celicas. to do a head swap your going to need to get the head and the block remachined so that the mating surfaces match. your going to want to use the headgasket for the head. you shouldnt have to do anything with the computer, but you might have to rewire some sensors for the different head.
the only difference between the mr2 and celica 5sfe is a tranny mount, everything on the engine and internals should be identical

Only a certain gen 3S-GE head will fit a certain gen 5S-FE block.
