1991 celica engine swap options

Hello all, my 1991 celica st 1.6 4afe has 265,000 miles and the engine has begun to make self-destructive knocking sounds. the vehicle has been taken off the road before cataclysmic failure caused a tow. I am not willing to spend the time and money to rebuild the original motor but have the ability to purchase a low mileage 2.0 litre engine from a 1993 gt celica. I can get the whole car so any parts needed for the swap are available. my question is how much of the 1993 gt would have to be installed into the 1991 st to make this conversion? thanks in advance for any replies.

one mount is different so that would have to be modified, also transmissions, axles, and hubs are different. wiring is probably close but some will have to be changed

If you have a donor car then it should be pretty easy. Anything that is not the same bring it over.
